Rifle ammunition: reviews, calibre guides and buying advice for every discipline
The right ammunition can unlock your rifle’s full potential. The wrong choice can cost you accuracy, terminal performance and – out in the field – a clean kill. Choosing well matters, and that’s where we come in.
Rifle Shooter’s ammunition section delivers independent reviews, calibre comparisons and practical buying advice across the full spectrum of rifle ammunition available to UK shooters. Our reviewers test factory loads in real-world conditions – assessing velocity, consistency, accuracy, terminal performance and value – across centrefire, rimfire and specialist applications.
Whether you’re selecting a stalking load for clean, ethical kills on deer, a consistent match round for target shooting or an effective calibre for long-range foxing, we cover the options that matter. Brands tested include Hornady, Federal, Norma, Sako, RWS, Lapua and Winchester.
