Default SK ammo & model 17-9

Anyone else do some shooting today? went out to some public land this morning and shot a brick of some 22lr from a company I had never heard of prior to the “pandemic” called SK Ammo. I didn’t put any on paper but it seemed to shoot really well out of my gun, only complain would be that the brass seems to expand more than usual. Extracting was a pain after a couple hundred rounds even after brushing the cylinder chambers. Anyone else have any experience with this ammo?

SK is an offshoot of Lapua! Pretty good stuff usually.

I've run SK Flat Nose Target 22LR through my 17-2 and Ruger 10/22. They are very accurate, comparable to Eleys Club and Target loads I recently tried. All three shot under 1" from my stock 10/22 at 25 yards.
I bought a brick of the SK's in Sept 2020 but I haven't seen them for sale since. Could be they changed the name to "Match" or something.
