This is cool. I can look at the best groups at 75 and 100 and get a list of what ammo groups the best for future ammo purchases. I know my rifle is not the worlds best, but this gives me an idea of what shoots the best. I just bought some Lapua Center X and from the results it looks like it will be pretty good. Thanks Mike

....but you don't see others (like SK +) which are talked about here (and often used). Not even on the list.

If someone provided me with that ammo for testing, I'd be happy as I'd find out what worked best for my SB.

I think it is listed under Lapua.

Lapua Standard Plus

I posted the same site at Rimfire Shooting a few days ago myself.. It was in the context of CCI Standard Velocity results..If you take a look down the list you will see that the lowly CCI SV out shot many of the high dollar "match" ammo's. Just an observation if you would like to save some money while practicing..I personally used CCI SV back in the mid 80's in competition with rifle and pistol..It never let me down.

I thought the same thing about the CCI SV it is my favorite practice ammo and small match ammo. I find it very consistent at least for the cost. What surprised me was the Eley Sport most of all really. That stuff didn't seem the most consistent but then I only tried a couple of lots in small quantity.

Eley Sport, is made in Mexico by Aguila using the "Eley Prime" process, so when you buy Eley Sport you are really buying Aguila SV with another name. Not bad stuff for the price but not as good as CCI SV.
