Its the same stuff as wolf .

If wolf works in yor gun it will too.

Both appear to us something akin to tallow on their bullets.

Sk standard and wolf are both made in Germany by I believe lapua.

Works well in my mk III. I'm currently trying out Aguila pistol match.

SK Standard is good ammo have used som in my 10'22's for benchrest and it is a favorite ammo of a lot of benchrest shooter.

SK and Wolf may be made in Germany but not by Lapua, Lapua is located in Western Finland in a city of the same name.
Looks like Lapua alsso has a factory in Germany, I stand corrected.

A little more research. I found this quote.

Wolf does not make ammo. They buy ammo from other companies and but their label on it and import it to the USA.

Most Wolf center fire is made in Russian. Some in other Ex-Eastern Bloc countries.

Wolf Rimfire is made at the SK Jagd factory in the old East Germany. SK Jagd has a great reputation for quality 22 ammo.
Lapua bought SK some time back after the wall fell and the Wolf ammo that is imported in to the USA is Lapua primed brass and assembled at the SK factory machines that their match ammo is made on.
Many feel the ammo is the same but I've seen enough difference to think there are some small changes to the ammo. One is the powder. I pulled some of all four common SK/Wolf 22 ammo to check the powder weights to see if I could find out why some shots go high or low. What I found is SK and Wolf use two different powders if you go by the color. One has greenest color powder and one has slate grey color powder. Powder charges were very consistent for the few I pulled down.

In short Wolf 22 ammo is made by SK Jagd using Lapua primed brass and maybe Lapua bullets and lubricants. SK is now a division of Lapua but is separate manufacturing facility in Germany. Wolf 22 ammo is not made by the companies that make Wolf center fire ammo and should not be confused with that cheap fodder.

From the horses mounth. Notice the SK web address is labled Lapua Company.

Have a case of SK Std+ sitting in my safe right now - Great ammo in my rimfire pistols and rifles.

SK+ serves me well in handguns and rifles. Very acceptable accuracy and outstanding reliability. I do not recall a malfunction in over 1000 rds.

Champion Shooters Supply sometimes gets shipment of CCI-SV. I received a case about 6-8 weeks ago.
