Question on .22LR Ammo

[Sergeant Hartman]

My cz452 loves to easy the eley standard. It was the first box i tried, have tried 10-15 different ones only rws high velocity and one more expensive eley was good... bought a couple boxes of rws hv the other day and was not as impressed worse than the standard. At ~70 per 500 for the eley i am very happy. At 50m its usually clover leaf

Did you try CCI Std Vel as well?

+1 for trying the CCI Standard. My Sportco single shot likes them and that shop has them at $49/500, but you can get them anywhere for around $6.00 per box.
5 shots at 50m with an old Tasco 'Pronghorn' scope will do me.

Has anyone tried the SK Pistol Match Special - it is just a little faster than the normal Standard Velocity stuff - see a fair bit used in Handgun 100m Silhouette - good enough for the tiny shoot off targets at 100m. You might also like to try the SK "Long Range" ammo that has recently come onto the market.

Tried the sk pistol match special in my fussy bl22 recently and it was one of the best I've tried in lot of types and velocities. Sk rifle match was almost as good too. Haven't tried the long range.

P.S. there is a pistol match and pistol match special, both in similar green boxes. The latter being slightly faster.

I tested eight SK types today in my RPR, including Long Range Match and Pistol Match Special. I ordered some Pistol Match but received more Pistol Match Special in error.
Just sorting through it all now.
The PMS gave me a best of 9mm and 14.5mm from five 5rd groups at 50m. Velocity over ten rounds was 1033 to 1084fps, averaging 1062fps, ES51.
The LRM gave me bests of 14mm and 20.5mm from five 5rd groups. LRM was interesting as it hangs right on the sound barrier, six went supersonic, one was right on the border at 1102fps so I couldn't decide if I'd heard a solid crack or not. They varied from 1077fps up to 1122fps.
The HV gave me a best of 8.5mm out of just three groups - this stuff is outstanding in my Rugers, but discontinued
