Who makes what ammo?

[Hellbender]

I would love a sticky on what .22LR ammo is made by the different companies.

I know Eley is now making the Wolf Match ammo.

Even better would be "Wolf Match Extra" is the same as "Eley Club" and so forth.

SK made by Lapua? Etc, etc.

SK and Lapua is same factory.
Wolf and Eley is same factory.
Compare the price per round to tell you what is what. When batch tested the better and more consistent results in terms of ES and SD determines the name on the box and the price.

Lapua manufactures for SK
Eley for Wolf
CCI makes all the 17wmr except for Winchester and Browning
Winchester manufactures rimfire for Browning
CCI produces 22wmr for Federal, Hornady, Remington and FiocchiUSA
RWS was making Federal UltraMatch until recently.

I presume the ES and SD are trade secrets?

Proprietary information according to Lapua.
Easily determined by using a chrony.
ES less than 40 fps with quality 22lr.
SD less than 15 fps with the lots I tested.
SD gives you an idea of what to expect most of the time.
ES explains high and low strays.
