Wolf .22 ammo around Indy?

[DocIndy]

Anyone know where around Indy to find Wolf .22 MT on the shelf? Interested to run some through a couple rifles to see what the groups look like. Any place with an above average selection of .22 would be awesome too.

I've only seen it by the brick on store shelves and I snag it up when I find it. The last one I found was @ ACME in Seymour. Their cash price was equivalent to mail order + s/h.

I hear that the MT is going to change manufacturing plants and like the ME, also be made by Eley in England. The stuff I have has the waxy coating and is made by SK in Germany.

ACME isn’t too far a drive. I will call and see if they have anything. I appreciate the info versus online links... I know I can have it delivered, but would rather try a couple different options off the shelf locally versus paying shipping on it

Cabela's in Fishers has several types of Eley on the shelf in store. You can buy it by the box instead of the brick.

Eley Club has the same round nose bullet and is also covered in beeswax. Maybe this will be the new Wolf Match Target load?

I've tried Wolf ME vs. Eley Edge (black colored case) in a high $ Anshutz 54 and the Wolf ME was noticeably better. This makes me think Wolf ME is either Eley Match or Eley Tenex.

If anyone else here knows for sure then pipe up!

Have never seen it in any stores around here. Have seen it at 1500 show.

Bump for some corrections.

I bought several brands of 22 LR to do an ammo test.
Wolf ME is NOT Eley Tenex, it's NOT Eley Match, it's NOT Eley Edge (black case stuff). All of those Eley bullets have a flat tip with a little dot in the center. I don't have any Eley club or target to compare. Wolf ME is head stamped "E" but I can't tell what equivalent Eley load it would be.

It looks like SK owns Lapua. I don't have any SK ammo to compare. I do have two loads of Lapua; Midas + & Center-X. I can't tell them apart visually. Midas + cost a bit more than Center-X. Wolf MT has the same exact bullet, case and beeswax coating.

The last I heard SK was making Wolf but that was a long time ago. There may be something about it on Rimfirecentral.

ACME is where I bought my Wolf bricks.

Wolf was made by SK for a long time. But the recent discussion I've seen is the Wolf moved the contract to Eley.

I've yet to see a field test report on Eley-made Wolf.

My existing supply of Wolf was the SK-made stuff and it's excellent.

That's good to know I still have a brick of the original in my stash. Have not seen any of the new stuff.

Considering what Remington wants for there Eley made 22s I don't expect it will be any cheaper. Time will tell.
