Eley Tenex EPS .22 LR 40gr Flat Nose Match, 50-Round Box

The Eley Tenex EPS .22 LR 40gr Flat Nose (brand part no. 00100) is built to a standard most rimfire ammunition never approaches: it has won more Olympic medals than any other .22 cartridge in the sport’s history.

This is a rimfire cartridge, not a centerfire round, and it’s built specifically for serious smallbore and rimfire rifle competition rather than casual plinking. In rimfire ammunition for match shooters, this is the round the sport’s top competitors already trust.
