General Comments
I don't know how but I got suckered into buying these by a friend I thought I'd give them a spin anyway I zeroed my scope in and tried a few targets there okay at about 10 feet but after that there very inaccurate my shot grouping at 50 yards was nearly 6 inch with 3 or 4 missing the target altogether

hunting didn't go much better it takes twice as many pellets to put down anything bigger than a household fly in the end I threw them in the bin even though the tub wasn't even half empty

and even worse after sending my gun for its service my local gunsmith asked what the hell I'd been sticking down my barrel as it was scratched all the way up and had a yellow covering in places (where I presume the plastic had melted) when I told him about the pellets I had used he laughed and explained that he refuses to stock them for just that reason



Utter rubbish, definitely avoid using these.
