    If you were sponsored and/or a high profile competitor I’m sure they would be able to accommodate. But yeah, for the average folk, probably not a priority.

    This would be awesome if it was available. I did extensive load testing and was able to secure 10,000 rounds (SK LR Match) of the exact same lot number following my testing. Having said that, it was pure luck that the company I bought the ammo from had that much and of the same lot number in stock..... Especially during these times.

    I had heard of people lot-testing, but there are no distributors (locally), where I can buy from 10 lots of the same ammo, and then order a case of the best ‘fit’. (Thunder Bay). Just discovered this video the other day: cheers… it’s lot testing at Eley manufacturing

    For very specific premium 22LR I am sure it would be easier to find than anything generic. It is rare for the average person to search out $15/50 or more ammo, they are on the 333 and 666 milk carton packs and bitching when they find a dented or misshaped one.

    Weird, Korth is pretty good at replying to emails. I used Korth Group Warranty Team <warranty@korthgroup.com> for some scope issues. Maybe try that and they can point you in the right direction.

    Lapua has a test center in Ohio. 4 1/2 hour drive from the Peace Bridge in Buffalo. Get your Form 6 NIA from the ATF and drive down. You'd have to link up with the importer here for lot #. No guarantee that you can get the lot you want.
