Eley Sport .22LR

[JoeMartin]

Has Eley Sport changed their .22LR FPS from 1085 to 1135?

I was over on Midway USA and I see they are not listing the FPS of the .22LR any longer (or maybe they will again)? In any event I did a search under "Eley Sport FPS" and I had hits come up that said 1085 FPS and 1135 FPS... So I'm wondering if they (Eley) has made a change. Anyone with any info on this?

buy some and run it through a chrono.. My gun always seems to run a little faster then the advertised FPS

E-mail remington and ask. Be prepared to be ignored for a while. I e-mailed a complaint about FTF wtih thier Target ammo last week...still no reply.

If it's the Eley Sport in the purple box, it's made in Mexico by Aguila. The velocity for this load is ~1120fps from a Savage MKII 21" barrel. To me, it seems to be a duplicate of Aguila's Standard Velocity load.
