The SK Long Range Match .22 LR 40-Grain Lead Round Nose (LRN) Target Ammunition 50-round box is specialized rimfire target ammunition engineered explicitly for NRL22, PRS Rimfire, 100+ yard benchrest competitions, and precision marksmanship training. Standard bulk .22 LR loads frequently suffer from wide velocity variances and severe atmospheric shockwave turbulence as they drop from supersonic to subsonic speeds, causing accuracy degradation beyond 50 meters. SK resolves these long-range trajectory and stability constraints by tuning a 40-grain match-grade lead round-nose projectile to a 1,106 FPS muzzle velocity, delivering flat flight paths, minimal wind drift, and extreme lot-to-lot consistency.
The primary performance advantage centers on the 40-grain Lead Round Nose bullet construction and SK's specialized proprietary slick wax lubricant. This smooth surface treatment protects the lead profile from distortion, reduces lead fouling in match-grade barrels, and works in tandem with precision-drawn brass cases to ensure uniform feed-ramp gliding and smooth extraction across custom bolt-action and match semi-automatic rifles. The velocity profile is specifically calibrated to navigate the transonic zone seamlessly, preserving shot-to-shot groupings at extreme distances.
Manufactured in Schönebeck, Germany, by SK Ammunition—a division of the Lapua and Nammo Group—these competitive cartridges are built to international match standards. Assembled with clean-burning propellants and ultra-sensitive rimfire primer compounds, SK Long Range Match undergoes continuous electronic velocity tracking and dimensional auditing to guarantee reliable ignition, action cleanliness, and single-hole group performance.
