    Accupells and Gecos for me. They aren't particularly fussy.
    Good deals with these members

    RWS Geco .177 are a very common, cheap but good pellet, that Ive never had a problem getting anywhere. I buy a box of ten tins (500 per tin) and get a discount, for £29. I might get put down for this ,but try the Alecto without the palm shelf. I prefer the grip I get. You can put it back if you don't agree.

    I would agree with that.
    I took the shelf off mine almost as soon as I got the Alecto and have never put it back on.

    Nice to know others break with convention now and again. I do quite a few things other than expected regarding what one should and shouldn't be done. I find for example, that gripping with ring and pinky on the hold (for me) frees up my trigger finger independence, and eliminates chicken finger. Not recommending, just saying it works for me.

    Its a class gun. Pop 2 drops of magic9 gun oil (after the supplied oil runs out) in air intake hole, every half tin of pellets and it will run sweet. Hope you enjoy it. PS. 5ml syringes from the bay. 10 for £3 are good for getting oil in tiny hole.

    Pellets For Alecto

    Must say that everyone I know uses Daystate Li with fantastic results,

    Most have scopes fitted and are dropping targets out to fifty yards on a regular basis,

    I shoot them from my blinged up ratbuster and they are very good,

    Whatever you use have fun,

    Cheers Ratty.
