I contacted Capstone and they indicated this ammo will not be available until sometime later in the year.
Sounds interesting. I am currently using Flat Nose Match in all of my guns and I'm having good success with it.

Haven't heard about it but will keep an eye out now. I'm running a long range rifle match now and always looking for the golden ammo.

In my opinion, it is just a marketing ploy, like putting the word "Match" on a box of ammo.

I met a very serious rimfire shooter over the weekend who loves the SK Long Range.

SK mainly makes 2 types of ammo, one low velocity and one higher velocity. Each lot is tested at the factory and boxed up based on how that testing goes. For the low velocity lines, pistol match is the worst performer, followed by standard plus, and rifle match performs the best in their tests. For the higher velocity line it's pistol match special, biathlon, and long range rifle match. They do have a few other products that have more major differences.

It's great ammo, but the extra velocity isn't really needed for silhouettes. My buddies shoot a lot of it for precision rimfire rifle shoots.
