Chaff 3,414 Posted June 22, 2017 Report Share Posted June 22, 2017 Just looking for an alternative pellet to bisley wasps I was after a heavier pellet. Thanks Quote Link to post
Rez 4,957 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 They must be as tight as a ducks arse in the breech @ 5.6... In all honesty, from what Ive heard about those, they're wank anyway mate. How heavy do you want to go and what you feeding them too? PCP I would assume as you want a heavier lump. 1 Quote Link to post

Rez 4,957 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Good choice. You don't want to go to heavy with a boinger... but I've used jumbos myself and they're pretty mint. 1 Quote Link to post

pianoman 3,584 Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 Aww ELEY WASPS!!! Used to be a legendary pellet the good old (and original) Eley Wasp in .22. They were tight in the breech but, I loved them, my HW80 .22 loved em and they were blisteringly hot for rat and rabbit shooting. Eley sold the moulds and everything about 15 years ago to another, smaller business and they've just ballsed them up batch after batch. Rubbish they are now. A genuine shame. I blame trying to do things on the cheap. No good ever in this sport. 1 Quote Link to post

Chaff 3,414 Posted June 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 I found rws superdome worked ok in a gun that seemed to like 5.6 pellets . Used nothing else in all my hws very consistent aswell as reasonably cheap. Perhaps I should not be a tight arse and buy a few and try Quote Link to post
PeskyWabbits 464 Posted June 26, 2017 Report Share Posted June 26, 2017 Eley Wasos are proper pants now. I moved to H&N Field Target Trophy in my Airsporter. Quote Link to post
