Tenex comes into it's own when you are shooting in the 10 ring and want the X ring.

For serious match-grade ammo, try Champion's Choice or International Shooter's Service. You can occasionally find match ammo at Brownells, if you are lucky. Or try CMP.I have heard really good things about this ammo so I decided to try and find some to buy and test. The stuff is crazy expensive. Opticsplanet.com has some in stock so I tried to buy a box and in the process was told they do not ship to Maryland. Anyone know why? Anyone know who else has any for sale is locally in A.A. county or online that is not still gouging. Opticsplanet.com it was $21.99 a box of 50. Also, anyone using the stuff and what are your thoughts about it. I am planning on shooting it in my CZ457 and a custom Ruger 10/22.
Might want to try Wolf Match Extra. It is made by Eley and shoots about the same as Tenex in an Anschutz Model 54. My dad got a batch of it with the Eley headstamp on Wolf brass. Excellent .22LR ammunition and not your typical Wolf product. Shoots very well in a Marlin 795, too. One hole groups @ 50 yards.
I don't think that ammo has been available for a long time. I still have a few bricks, and it shoots great but havent seen it on shelves in years.

Wolf is a US company that imports ammo from the Tula ammo plant. I’m pretty sure its 22lr is also produced in Russia, along with the SK / Eley offerings.
Wolf is hosed with Bidens changes there, as most pf what the sell is from Russia.
WOLF Rimfire – Match-grade .22LR ammunition from Germany and Russia. Comes in a black box.
However, even then some of its .22-caliber rimfire ammunition was produced by Sk Jagd und Sportsmutions GmbH in Saxony-Anhalt, Germany.
Where the matter is further confused is that in 2009, WPA ended it brand with both the Tula Cartridge Plant and the Ulyanovsk Machinery Plant due to legal disputes. As such Wolf now uses a variety of suppliers from across the European Union to meet its demands.
For now, as far as we can tell with the information we have, it is likely some WPA will remain available while some may not.
I just went to my gun-room and checked my stash of Wolf Match Target. I have the last few boxes from a case of 5,000 I bought probably about 15 yrs ago. It's marked "Made in Germany"...i.e. SK. OTOH, I just bought a brick of Wolf MT a month ago. It's marked "Made in England" and carries an "E" headstamp, i.e. Eley.
I haven't done any head-to-head testing yet to see if the new ammo equals the old SK-manufactured MT.
