ELEY test ranges | Advanced ammunition testing

ELEY’s batch testing centres offer the most advanced testing protocols of their kind anywhere in the world, giving shooters the competitive edge to achieve their winning goals.

Each year, hundreds of target shooters, from club champions to Olympic medallists, visit our specialist facilities to find the perfect ammunition match for their barrel.

Working closely with every shooter, our expert technicians conduct a series of precise tests to evaluate multiple ammunition batches. This rigorous process identifies the specific batch that delivers the highest level of consistency and accuracy for each barrel and individual shooting style.

Because every barrel has its own unique characteristics, and each batch of ammunition performs differently, a thorough testing process is essential. What performs flawlessly in one barrel may not deliver the same results in another, which is why batch testing is critical to achieving world-class performance.

How we batch test

With careful supervision by our highly trained Customer Range Officers, you can test your barrel with up to 20 batches using a proven test methodology, electronic targets, and bespoke ELEY software to achieve the best results.

During testing, 10 shots from each batch are fired through each barrel and the best performing batches are then shortlisted. A further 30 shots from those selections are fired until an overall 40 shot group size and consolidated score is recorded for each. Our bespoke ELEY software makes analysing the results fast, simple and very accurate, helping you to find that record-breaking batch.
