I found some, but they only limited me to 100 rounds. Kind of a waste. Its made by SK. My google fu is lacking, I can't find any mention of it. Have any of you used it and I wonder how old it is?
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

Can’t say as I have bsa…pic?
Only thing I know of is sk rifle match which is now in black and red packaging
Sk standard was in black and yellow (gold?) boxes but I assume that’s not what you are referencing here
She never made it past the bedroom door, what was she aiming for...? She's gone shootin..

This? That looks real similar to my pic. Is it made by SK? It looks like it says "sk" on the box..

Hopefully I didn't get screwed. ha ha.. I was wishing they would have let me have more. I also bought a box of Wolf match 22lr for $5.. That stuff has been hard to find. The same store had this a few weeks ago and I bought it: Its old ammo from 1992, but still in the shrink wrap.. The reason I went to that shop was because they have a lot of cool old rifles and I knew they had some new Lapua 22-250 brass for my new rifle @$91/100. I bought 200 pcs of that because it was the cheapest price I have seen on that brass..

Yes the Rifle Match pictured is was made by SK Is the wolf in a paper box or plastic? If plastic it’s newer (5years?) and made by eley- if paper it was made by SK.

The Wolf match is in a plastic box. It looks newer than the stuff I got in Oregon. That is in a cardboard box. Thanks for the info Robert. I appreciate it. I'm surprised you guys have not seen the match gold. You guys are usually on top of things around here. They had about 1,000 rounds of it. I'm thinking it should shoot pretty good. Now, which rifle to use?? Probably my 10-22, since it has a scope on it. I'll let you guys know how it shoots.

That Federal Gold Medal Match has been excellent in a couple of my rifles- and just mediocre in others... hope you get great results with it...

I have a few 22's to try it in. One of them is bound to like it. I hope.. I'm also hoping our club puts together some good shoots in August. Maybe I'll see you there..

One of my rifles really like the SK Rifle Match. I have not seen the Gold before, but would love to try it out and see how it compares.
I may not be smart but I can lift heavy objects
I have a shotgun so I have no need for a 30-06.....

I've not seen that before either but a quick Google found a few guys talking about it...one fellow mentioned it may have gone out of production around 2004.

Is the wolf in a paper box or plastic? If plastic it’s newer (5years?) and made by eley- if paper it was made by SK. Is there a preference due to performance between those 2? Or is it a coin toss. I realize rimfire in general is a crap shoot and only the gun will decide in the end but on average is one make better than the other?

I haven’t shot the eley made wolf. I haven’t read recent reviews- but shortly after the change was made the reviews I did read were underwhelming.
I did shoot a fair amount of the Sk wolf, and it shot above my expectations when you could get a case for $400.

I've never seen that Match Gold, but if it shoots as well as the SK Rifle Match in the red box does in my two CZ 452s, I'd like to get some.

SK is usually made by Lapua, I think ALL of it is contracted to Lapua, so that might be CenterX or Midas, reboxed.
You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
