just picked up a tin for £10 !!!
yes they slip in very nicely 🙂 🙂 🙂
Do they fit okay in the barrel??
iv’e just tried some through my stealth 29.4 ftlbs with 12″ barrel but the bisley mags are only doing 2 ftlbs less i would have thought with the greater wieght of the eley mags the power diffrence would have been a lot more ?????

I had the same issue with the crosmans and the .22cal round ball as well.
Crosman barrels might be closer to .22 that all of the others.

looking forward to your groups. 35yards is good for me.
Can you shoot a group and post it?
i,m going out wednesday night but i,ll leave the house abit earlyer and try to get a grouping for u mate what distance u want it at bearing in mind my scope,s crap lol
ye mate sorry sorted it now lol
Rabbit, is it possible you got the left and right one backwards? It just seems odd that the one on the left weighs less than the one on the right. Is the one on the left hollow inside?
Would like to see as well, if its not to much trouble. Have you ever chronied them? being such a tight fit, i’d bet they leave the muzzle with some authority.
Sluggo, its a wonder what a thousandths of an inch will do. I’d like to get a trashed barrel and use it for sizing the lr rounds. Thought even to mic all the unjacketed brands i could find, just to see if 1 would fall into the tolerence range. Funny thing is i tried an old .22 crosman barrel and the bullet slides right through 😯 . Thought i was slick for a minute. It beats spending .10 a round, if i can find one brand which runs smaller then the rest i’m set. May yet drill out some ali/brass tubing to the right dia and size with that, not a major priority just another on the list projects to do.

right lads here,s a pic off the two pellets i use . on the left hand side u will c a wasp magnum 30.6grans for the longer shot,s and on the right u will c a bisley magnum 21.4 grans for normal shooting .the pellet that we r talking about is the wasp magnum and when pushed into my condor barrel u r left with a mm off skirt out the barrle and i find it no probs to use it like this with great results ..
In my Condor the only .22cal solid pellet that would fit where the Condor specials from pyramydair.(pelletman)
they measure .2162
I tried the other solid pellets like the 30gr round nose and the 35gr hollow point but they would not fit. You could force them in with a penny but that was a bitch.
they measure .2167
I still have some left over from 2004.
Sumatra loves the 35gr HP solid pellets.
They didn’t fit my crosman. 🙁
well lads i,ve just cought this thead lol .. i use these bullets for long shots (over the 80yds) and i can hit a rabbit,s head at over 120yds no probs with these and the pack one hell off a punch .the will not push all the way into the barrel but they do go in leaveing somethinglike imm off skirt out i,ll take a pic off one in my barrel to show use rapid mate if u can get these cheeper i,ll be giveing u a shout soon lol 😀
These sound alot like 22lr rounds i’ve tried. Tough to pull without damage to the lead. Tight fit, very but i can get them in the barrel. I’ve tried this a couple of times for penetration testing. Out penetrated any pellet by a good amount. I was using old coffee cans to see how many i could punch through, heavy gauge tin. 2.5 cans is my best through 2 cans and into one side of a third. The .22lr went through all 3 cans and left a decent divot in my concrete wall. Can’t speak of accuracy, but would like to try a couple of rounds. Nice as you can get these in 30g through 60g. Rabbits would love to see a pic. I think the tight fit helps as there is little to no wasted air, and at 30g that packs a wallop. Funny thing is they slide right through a crosman barrel.
Come on then Rapid, share your source 😀

Hey, I just discovered this forum is here for us to share ideas and information, and thought I’d pass that on.
Now does anyone know where these pellets can be sourced, say for maybe £10 a tin?
