OK, here's my trial run of select (Seemingly popular) match 22LR:people buy the spendy stuff because they need that level of precision. I am sure those who need that appreciate a tip about where it can be obtained, and especially at a lower price than the norm.I'll keep the premium stuff off the thread.
I stocked up on Aguila when they were both "ELEY prime" and "Aguila prime". Initially, I thought ELEY prime produced smaller groups but during 10,000+ round 50 yard testing, "Aguila prime" composite groups of 40 gr CPRN produced similar groups as "ELEY prime" of 3/4"-1" groups.Bought three bricks of these a couple of weeks ago. Best price I've seen a some time. ELEY primed if that means much.
Wouldn't doubt that at all. It shoots plenty good in my Marlin 25N and Marlin 39A tho.AFAIK, Aguila switched from "ELEY prime" to "Aguila prime" when the licensing was not renewed by ELEY. I started seeing the switch from "ELEY" to "Aguila" around 2019 and since it's all been "Aguila prime".
Even match ammunition now shows "Aguila prime" - https://www.aguilaammo.com/products...long-rifle-standard-velocity-solid-lead-point
So if you are buying "ELEY prime" Aguila 22LR ammunition, they are new old stock of several years.
Nice but 10 boxes of 5000 rounds adds $34.49 in shipping which comes out to $334.39/5000 shipped.PSA has CCI standard velocity at .06/round
Maybe it’s new-old stock? It seems like the past several years all I have seen is “Aguila-prime” stuff.I stocked up on Aguila when they were both "ELEY prime" and "Aguila prime".

Yes. At this point, any Aguila marked "ELEY prime" is new old stock before circa 2019 as any new production 22LR should be "Aguila prime"Maybe it’s new-old stock? It seems like the past several years all I have seen is “Aguila-prime” stuff.
Nice!Just had 5000 CCI SV delivered yesterday for $0.064 each. Seems to be about the best price shipped.
Looks like @KKJ13 is keeping the secret source close to the vest .Yes. At this point, any Aguila marked "ELEY prime" is new old stock before circa 2019 as any new production 22LR should be "Aguila prime"

Lowest I could find for CCI SV is $334.99/5000 (6.7 cents per round) with free shipping - https://www.aeammo.com/products/cci-35-076683000354-5c16-case-5666Looks like @KKJ13 is keeping the secret source close to the vest
It was from Lambo’s Armory. I’d never heard of them and didn’t want to disclose until after actually getting the shipment. They shipped fast and well packaged.
