just received a marvel standard length combo rail thanks to commercial row here on the forum. Anybody have good results with certain brands of ammo with their marvel?

Eley TeneX Pistol works in everything.

I've tested Eley Black Box, CCI SV, and CCI Mini -Mags, all shoot very well.  The Eley groups better, not surprisingly, but either will hold the X ring at 50 yards in my RR. I use heavier recoil springs with the Mini Mags (I have a larger inventory trying to use up).

As an added bonus Tenex will reduce your cleaning time. By that I mean it costs so damn much you'll have to sell guns to buy it so you have less to clean.  Laughing

SK pistol match special better than pistol match? It’s just 30 or so more FPS by the description.

My tests at the long line with the Ransom Rest showed Norma Tac beat, Eley target, CCI std, Norma Match, and Eley Club in my Marvel. It was also cheaper than everything except CCI std. Any of the above will clean the shortline. I’ve never cleaned the long line but CCI held 1.25 inches (for one lot) and 1.33 for another.

When I had Marvels, they ate everything from Eley to Aguila dished from remade Metalform mags.  When eating out of other mags, they did not always clean their plate.

SK made by Eley... think that would be a surprise to Nammo.. Eley is making Wolf labeled 22 now though replacing SK who made it previously. SK pistol is excellent ammo for the $$

My old Marvel likes Aguila pistol match and their super extra is very good for practice or at the SL.
