RWS Target Ammo

[Nowind0]

I have a chance to purchase a case of RWS ammo that is listed as "Target". Silver box, with Red Stripe and "Target" in white letters.

I have no idea as to what current RWS line to which this would compare. Can someone help?

Thanks
Mike

Bottom of the line

Go for R50 or R100.

Have a look on the RWS webpage http://www.rws-munition.de/en/sports_rimfire/rimfire_ammunition.htm?navid=27
It's not BR quality.

I agree with Peter. RWS isn't really intended for benchrest shooting. I use it for 3-P shooting indoors at 50 feet. Nice, clean and reliable ammunition and perfectly satisfactory for that purpose.

I didn’t word that very well
The Target is not BR quality it’s a lower grade.
Nothing wrong with higher grade stuff and I’ve won plenty of big matches with R50 and R100. If your barrel likes it it’s as good as anything else out there.
