The Bisley issue RWS is as good as any and is reasonably priced versus factory Lapua or similar.

If you go to Bisley try the NSRA shop, in the Lord Roberts Centre, where you can buy HPS Match ammo....I have been using HPS "once fired" reloads in a variety of 7.62 target rifles for some time and the results are as good as anything I have ever used.....and they are cheaper than RWS/RUAG.

I know what you're saying, but that's the first time I've seen the phrase 'reasonably priced' used in the same sentence as NRA RWS!

Some alternatives:

98p NRA RWS/RUAG (NRA)
86p HPS Targetmaster in new brass (NSRA Shop)
84p HPS Targetmaster in new brass (HPS) - [price after case deposit recovered].
75p Fultons ammo in once-fired RWS brass (Fultons)
72p HPS Targetmaster in once-fired brass (NSRA Shop)
72p HPS Targetmaster in new Zinc-plated cases (HPS)

Welcome to the forum Rick.

I've used the NRA RWS before and although it's expensive, it is pretty good.

Can't comment on the other suggestions, but might give them a try myself.
