If you are batch testing (matching individual production batches to your barrel), then at Eley's customer test range you can only test Edge or Tenex, not Match. If not batch testing, I'm not sure that Tenex is worth the extra at 25 yards, as there is no guarantee that batch will match your barrel, although the difference between a good batch and a bad one is small, unlike at 50m.
Thank you for your reply Tim s.Yes I can see what you are informing me about at 25m as opposed to 50m so I'll give Eley Match a bash I'm using Eley sports at the moment getting some of the pin head bulls eyes but mostly just the 10s.
Well I'll pass on your advice to other members of my club (or I might keep it to my self) got to have a edge on them
