Just getting back into .22 target shooting at 50 yards. I have an old brick of red box Eley from many moons ago that surprisingly still shoots pretty darn good in my CIL 190. I haven't checked all the local guys but Cabelas and Bass Pro don't seem to have anything in the way of target ammo. The Shooting Edge seemed to be out of stock on Eley and didn't have anything else to offer. Forty or so years ago when I was doing a lot of target shooting Eley and RWS was the go to ammo with maybe Winchester T22 for 20 yard practice sessions. Seems the selection is pretty slim these days or maybe I'm just not looking in the right places.

Any suggestions?

I get all of my SK from Jerry at Mystic Precision(Site Sponsor). He carrys lots of high end match ammo. My rifle just loves SK. Very reasonable shipping rates also. I buy 2 bricks every 2 weeks and he ships fast.

Hirsch Precision or Nordic Marksman are my go-to vendors for target ammo. Both are local to me, and also ship as required.

Good sources, but the shipping rates are killer to send my way. Tesro ships to me for 1/2 the price, or I can drop in to see Peter at Target Shooting Products and skip the shipping entirely :)
 
There's a dealer in Saskatchewan that has SK and Lapua, as well as some Eley .22LR ammo in stock. See Airguns Plus, which carries firearms, ammo, and accessories.
When prices between dealers are close, you may wish to select based on proximity to your location to minimize shipping costs.
 
Shipping can run up if you buy small lots.
Roughly $30 for a brick from Target Shooting Products and $45-50 for a case to the Fraser Valley.
It has been reported to me and in previous posts that Jerry's prices at Mystic are reasonable.
Any savings are eaten up quickly when ordering small lots.
Discuss prices shipped before ordering to determine the true price of shipping.
 
Any places that offer a package of assorted types? All I can get locally is Federal, CCI, Winchester and Remington ammo types. Wouldnt mind testing some wolf, sk and eley.
 
I've never seen Wolf in Canada, that's not to say it isn't available here.
Try Nordic Marksman, they have or had variety packs of different ammunition bundled together.

Tessro does sample packs. Mid range and high end, each sample assortment comes with 2 boxes of each ammo, 5 selections to make a brick.

Jerry(mystic precision) also will build you a sampling of some really excellent choices. More of a pick your own style and quantity.
