    I don't think that they make them any more! I have an old tin, part used, but I haven't seen any in the shops for a good ten years now! With these, the BB was inside the nose of the pellet, you could see it if you looked up the pellet's tail.

    They did start making a different pellet called the 'Fireball', these had the pellets on the outside of the nose at the front, it was a copper plated BB. These weren't very accurate either, and were expensive. Years ago I bought a house and found a load of old plates in it, they were collector's plates with photographs of 'Benidorm', 'Costa Brava' etc on them, these ball-bearing carrying pellets were the best for destructive fun shooting up these horrible plates (did it inside my garage and swept up afterwards!), but I don't think that they were accurate enough for hunting. Strictly destructive plinking fun!

    That's them! Cammell's make all the 'Champion' brand pellets. The firm has been in existence for a long time, in fact they started out in Alexandria before relocating to England... The pellets have never been that great sadly. Those 'Wolf' pellets, and the 'Eagle' etc were supposed to be high quality when they introduced the range, but I only have one gun that will shoot the wolf pellets passably!
