hello...
I've used Golden Eagle Target with excellent success but have not used or heard of anyone using the Golden Eagle Match Rifle. Any experience with it out there?

Dave,
I assume you are talking about the Aguila ammo. One in a dark blue box and the other in the black box.
Neither my Anschutz 1808 nor my Rem. 40X silhouetter rifles grouped bettet than 1.5 inches with either ammo at 100 meters. Lower-priced CCI standard velocity produced better groups ~1,25 inches with both rifles.
That's the only experience I have had with that ammo.
Regards,

Hi Joaquin,
Yup... the Aguila. I was able to shoot some very good scores with the Target. Although afraid to actually bench it because of my lack of skills in that department. I guess I'll just hope the Match Rifle is good, or good enough, because I just ordered a case of it.
Thanks. dave
verdict?

I used to shoot the match rifle - my gun liked it - I liked it. It seemed a smidge better than the target but I don't have any numbers to support that. All shot pretty clean as well.
