    The blurb suggests not recommended for magazines so thats two of my guns out. The ratty shoots best with crosman pellets, so I wouldn't switch. A tad expensive these as well...

    Yes, looks as though they're for springer and PCP single shot hunting air rifles, not for magazine pistols.

    The review i read said they had been softened and could be marked with a fingernail. I think the reviewers must have fingernails as hard as bear claws cause i cant mark the .22 versions.
    If the 177 ones arent a good fit to the magazines you will need to hammer them in

    The wire is annealed prior to forming, I don't think the process is repeated after work hardening,
