Where's all the SK ammo?

My LGS is still sitting on cases of rifle match and long range range match from the spring time.

You should stock up now . . . it won't get cheaper. Too bad I'm in NB :>( and SKxx from Nordic is ca $200/brick with shipping.
I'm on my last couple hundred rounds of RM & SK+ (that I bought @ $8.00/box !!). CCI-SV 'till Tenda comes thru.
EDIT - $200 / BRICK - NOT per Case

I've never shot the long range match yet, I suppose I should, my MTR seems to like standard plus over rifle match in all the testing I've down, really likes lapua center x, but that's the most expensive Ilve tried, never had any luck with Eley, I have some RWS to try as well.

haven’t tried standard plus but mine likes regular pistol match over rm and long range match. tried that flavor?

I'll look at my test targets, I believe I have a brick of Pistol Match as well,

For anyone curious who uses SK/Lapua ammo, this email from Lapua was a few years ago when I inquired If biathlon ammo used a different lubricant for the cold.

"Hi Craig!



Thank you for your E-mail.



We are using for all SK Products the same lubricant.



For the Lapua Line it is also all the same.



Regards

Shipping four bricks was the same price from the same place to the same city/area.

For some reason this supplier in Truro N.S. charged higher shipping than did the national distributor located some 100 km away in Lake Echo, N.S.

The lesson may be to order from a supplier as close as possible.

Its 82$ to ship 2 bricks 3 hours away. I was going to go up Wednesday, but 6 hours of driving. I ain't got time for that.
 
How does one go about buying from North Sylva? Everywhere I go on the website it asks me to log in, but there's no way to create an account that my aging eyeballs can find.

I'm not familiar with the store, so I don't know the answer to that. Did you try making an account?

North Sylvia is an Importer/Distributor, you can't but from them unless you are a business, it's not a retail store.
 
Then how do you explain North Sylva having ammo?

Like craig says, you can't buy from them. On the dealer Network threads they list "Stocking Dealers" where you can try to buy stuff. N_Sylva doesn't post pricing, either. That's up to the dealers, thus varying competitive prices.

According to the Lapua site their only Canadian distributor is Hirsch. So does North Silva get it through Hirsch or do they bring it I from somewhere else?
 
S-K production is at a standstill and there is none anywhere. A shipment to Canada has been put on hold indefinitely.
Will order TENEX while it is available.
Shooting Anschutz 1710 "Virginia" last night at 10 yards, all groups were under 1".

Nordic is showing a few bricks of STD plus, and SK magazine.
 
I called Hirsch today to see if they had any SK long range match. As expected they had none and would not offer any opinion on when there might be some coming in. Lapua is focusing its efforts elsewhere, perhaps the Ukrainian war?
I did manage to get my name on a waiting list though. There are some 1400 people ahead of me. Imagine if I had waited!
