    Rohm Twinmaster Sport pellets

    Does anyone who shoots the above have advice on which pellets to shoot. I'm looking at the Finale Match, but see there are 4 head sizes, and as they are expensive to buy, I'm looking for a starting point please.

    I wouldn't splash out on Finale match .... Nothing wrong with them, but you won't see any difference in the results you get between them and Match Kulgen.

    RWS R10s are another good make and cheaper than Finale match.

    That said, unless you are shooting thousands of pellets a week the costs don't add up to much.

    As for size, most people settle for 4.49 - your gun may be different. I know a few top shooters, most of whom will admit to not seing any difference on the target between pellet sizes; so why not start there and see how you get on.

    Eric,

    Why are you considering the most expensive pellet? I presume since you are seeking advice that you have recently acquired your pistol and have not been shooting pistol for long. If that is the case, I would imagine that your average score is below 90 ex 100. That being so it really does not matter what type of pellet you use as long as they are of reasonable quality, RWS Hobby, RWS Gecco, H&N Econo or Diabolo Match. Your pistol is quite capable of holding the 10 ring with all of those.

    Once your average starts to creep over 90 (540 ex 600) then it may be time to think about selecting particular brands, sizes and batches of pellets, but this can only be properly done with the securely mounted pistol in a rest. There is no "best" pellet for any particular pistol (or rifle), it's the one that puts up the smallest groups.

    In the meantime, don't worry about pellets, buy cheap ones and practice more. You will be the cause of more bad shots than the pellets.

    Hope that this helps,

    Rutty

    Pellets

    Cheers for this. Yes I've just got started with the pistol and was given a tin of R10's which I've been using. I'm getting better but must work on my trigger technique. I'll go to my local shop and look out some of the named pellets and thats what I needed to hear.

    I was hopeing you where going to say my bad shooting was pellet choice, but no.

    If you look at the instruction booklet it will have a test card and the name and size of pellet that was used to acheive that result, I think you will find that twinmaster test with R10's and normally 4.49.

    Noddy and I used to use R10s in our twinmasters but we switched to Hobbys for the last season of the UBC comps and there's no loss of accuracy that I can see. I'm thinking of giving Gekkos a try on my next order.
