Hi Guys

Just wondering what is your guys choice for pellets, since getting back into air gunning I have found which ones work the best and least for me. For me I use Crosman in all my rifles and pistols I also have alot of gamo which I have found only work okay in my pumpmaster 760 they seem to be a tight fit in all my other guns, also have some daisy pellets which work good in all my guns.

hope to hear you guys choice

Jeremy

I have found RWS Hobbys do a good job for me.
JSBs are also good, Exact RS for sub 500 fps rifles.
Daisy wads are also pretty good, and cheap - but messy so wash them first.
Crosman bulk pellets are also cheap and are pretty good for plinking.
All depends on your gun though - try many, settle for the best!

I have found the Air Arms Diabolo Field Heavy pellets, in 4.52 head size shoot VERY accurately.. .177, 10.3gr in both my 2250 Crosmans..Both of those guns also shoot the .177 Ultra Magums 10.5's very accurately Cool

hey again guys

I have been doing some shooting since it has warmed up a bit and have come to see that gamo hunter and super point are junk in any of my guns. There sizes are all over the place one pellet fits fine but the next is WAY too big. Has anybody else found this in gamo's line of pellets? On the other hand there match pellet is pretty good in my guns Cool

Crosman Wadcutter & Pointed are OK for my plinking from 33 feet indoors .
I call them my cheap fun pellets .

I'll jump in. I don't order pellets online, so I go with what is available locally.

Crosman Premiers become my choice by default, but they work very well in all my guns. Pointed, wadcutter and hollow points all do the job.

I found in my Phantom .22 RWS H point's & Super points work really well.
And i just tryed some Crosman hollow points which dont seem to bad.
Not as tight of a group as the RWS though.

The RWS hobbys for my Stoeger X5 work good, tight groups, with in a penny. And the Diabolo Basic's work really well in the Stoeger as well.

The Copperhead pellets are the same as the super cheap Crosman pointed except they weigh 7.9gr instead of the 7.4gr the Crosmans weigh in at. Unless anything has changed in the past year or two. But when I checked they were at 7.9
