I just looked at the Norma website and noticed that the match offering is no where to be found. I wondering if the discontinued it due to the new extreme LR offering that was announced at shot or if I somehow missed it on their site.
Norma Match discontinued?

I saw it there, but when you try to buy it on their web store it’s no where to be found.

Yeah, the joy of the rimfire forums. You get products recommendations from total left field
Lol, oops. I had searched for ".300 Norma" as I have one coming and wanted to read up on it more, of course, this thread popped up and I didn't read too closely.
Lmao, just wear the badge, first to derail, saved me from telling the op CCI SV shoots just as well!
Well that saves me a whole bunch of time and effort since I’ve got plenty of CCI SV
I've had good results with Norma's TAC-22. Shoots a bit better in my CZ 457 then the CCI-SV.
I shoot with a husband and wife team that are amazing people and competitors. They were shooting Norma Match last month. He told me that his chrono gave him SDs on the rounds of 4-5 FPS. And that he bought it direct, on sale for around $4/box. I came home and looked to buy some, and at the time the price has gone up to $8. I decided to pass at that price as I have known ammo that shoots well for $8-$10. And, like you, noticed that it is nowhere to be found now. I would suspect they are no longer making it, and will transition to a “new” offer soon. That’s just speculation.
The TAC-22 did shoot well enough for me to buy a couple of cases for practice ammo out of our rifles. Glad to be able to buy decent ammo for $350/case, delivered.

Have you tried an email to the company and asking? I know they are no longer just Norma, but they used to be great about answering emails.
Plus their names were amusing, and the characters above certain letters were cool, double dots, or a roof.
Lol, good, now onto trying to figure out if Aus companies are going to put H4350 into artillery shells and deprive us reloaders of even more powder.
I've tried two different lots of Norma Match; first time I shot any of the 1st lot, I was disappointed to find that it didn't shoot nearly as good as the 1st lot of TAC-22 I'd bought at the same time. Wasn't all that impressed with the 2nd lot of Match either, but shot a few 50yd groups with both lots of Match a week or so ago, only this time, through a Vudoo Three-60 with a 23" Krieger that I've put a Pro-X tuner on. Had the tuner set for use with a good lot of SK Rifle Match, and didn't change it - the vertical of both lots of Norma Match was greatly reduced, but would need to do a side-by-side comparison with both lots in another Vudoo w/o a tuner to get a better idea of how much the tuner actually helped.

I went to range yesterday and tried Norma's TAC-22 as alternative to my dwindling supply of SK Standard + for PRS22 practice. RimX action with custom barrel in MPA Matrix chassis. Five 10 shot groups at 100 yards were 2 to 3 inch groups - 5 shots around 1 inch and then 5 flyers ruining groups. Shot SK Standard + and five 10 shot groups were 1 inch wide and 1.5 inch tall at same 100 yards.
I have a brick of Norma 22 match from local dealer I will try.

This is a target shot at 100 yards with a scoped Anschutz rifle with the Norma Match ammunition. I still have about 15,000 rounds of that ammunition left over from the 35,000 that I bought about 10-15 years ago. BTW, I'm not hoarding or reselling it. It's going to be shot.

If I have another 20 years of good shooting trips to look forward to that would be about 25-30 trips to the range each year. So let's be conservative and say that is 25 trips X 20 years = 500 trips.
At 500 rounds per trip I will probably go through 250,000 rounds of ammunition in the next 20 years.
Damn both of you for bringing this up. I need to get more ammo or I'll run out soon!
I mean you made the original 20k last 10-15 years, so the next 15k should go roughly another 10 years
Well in that case, better get a pallet load or twoTrue but I plan on retiring and will have more time available for shooting
