Wolf Match Target is actually pretty good - It's actually made by Lapua.

Popped into Academy for my usual Monday-Wednesday-Friday ammo check. 100 rounds of standard velocity CCI was $15.00! It was only about $9 a few months ago.

My go-to is RWS Target Rifle. RWS, Lapua, and Eley are all excellent. CCI is fine in the upper grades. Life's too short to shoot shoddy ammo.

Out of all your choices I would choose CCI. From them, since price is of concern, I would go with CCI Blazer. I think I have had one or two duds out of thousands of rounds of it. It is dirty but shoots pretty accurately. If you can get it, another price conscious choice would be Armscor ammunition. Very good stuff but apparently I am the only one here who thinks so because I am, as of right now, the only one who ticked it off in the poll. I have used Remington before and will again. Their Golden Bullet has always performed good enough for me, I rarely get any that are duds. Remington Thunderbolt, that is another story, lots of duds and failures to feed. Aguila is also more than acceptable, it is made in Mexico by what used to be a Remington company. It is funny how Remington seems to have left the know how of how to make decent 22 ammo in Mexico but everyone moans and groans about at least some of the lousy stuff they make in the USA. Shameful too, Remington should be doing much better by us.
