Looks like Hornady blems. I've seen 52gr amax, 168 amax, 225 30cal match and various hunting ones. If you're in need of bullets...good time to get them.

Re: Blemished bullet sale @ Midwayusa right now
I got boxes of 80gr 224 "Polymer tipped spitzer boat tails", I mean AMAX's, and 30 cal 178gr HPBT's and I'll eat my hat if they're not Hornady's. They come in a blue Midway marked plastic box tho.

Re: Blemished bullet sale @ Midwayusa right now
I ordered the 168g poly tip 308 bullets and in the past they have always been red as in Amax but this time they were lime green, Im assuming they will still fly the same as the Amax's.

Lime green? That should be the tips they use in Zombie Max ammo. Which is the same as V max.

Just received 5 boxes of .224 55 grain spitzers and I'll be damned if I can find a blemish on one of them.

Re: Blemished bullet sale @ Midwayusa right now
I ordered the 1,000 178gr boat tail with polymer tip, aka 178 AMAX & 500 of the 208 AMAX...There are definetly small scuffs and marks on the jackets here and there...some boxes are worse than others.
I've shot pulled 175SMK with very obvious pull marks, and they still shot sub-moa...las in < 0.5" groups at 100yards...I dont expect the very small blems on these bullets to be significant...but then again, i've never shot blems past 300yards...

Hope they got a new counter/inspector from last years group.
.
Would like to get in on it but swore myself off Midway after their lack of customer service lately.

Re: Blemished bullet sale @ Midwayusa right now
Ordered 1500 of the 53gr V-Max's and some other stuff that was on my wish list. I usually just keep adding stuff to my wish list until they have a blem sale, and then order what I want with the bullets. Works out quite nicely!

I've seen those noslers before and these are more of lime green not like the noslers. It's gotta be from the Zombie line from Hornady.
