With low felt-recoil, the soft-shooting SIG SAUER Match Elite Pistol Competition Ammunition delivers match-grade performance in 9mm

SIG SAUER recently introduced a new line in ammunition that should be of interest to shooters, dubbed Match Elite Pistol Competition Ammunition. The 147-grain 9mm Luger offering is billed as low-recoil and soft-shooting, featuring coated nickel cases and fast, clean-burning powder.

Velocities are touted to range between approximately 860 to 900 feet per second, delivering a power factor between 126 and 132. Legal for all USPSA competition, as well as 3GN matches, the load should live up to the claims of lower felt recoil and fast follow-up shots.

“This is the most accurate competition load I have ever shot,” said Max Michel, Jr., Captain of Team SIG.  “The SIG SAUER Match Elite consistently delivers groupings of less than two inches at 25 yards versus four inches on average with other ammunition, making it the ideal choice for professional and everyday shooters who want to improve their performance.”

“SIG SAUER always strives to improve upon existing products and the new Match Elite pistol competition ammunition is another example of this,” said Brad Criner, Senior Director, Brand Management and Business Development, SIG SAUER Ammunition.  “This load was developed by SIG ammunition engineers, working very closely with Max Michel and Lena Miculek, to be the ultimate pistol competition load. The reduced charge weight delivers lower felt recoil, giving shooters an edge from a speed and accuracy standpoint.”

SIG SAUER Match Elite ammunition is only available online at sigsauer.com/store for $24.50 per box of 50 rounds.  Cases of 10 boxes are also available while supplies last.
