if you want to go the way torrens suggests you need to make sure you get the one with the pivoting breech, i still have a brand new excellent match somewhere which takes 10x lead balls in a magazine, they are a nice gun to play with if youve never had one, they feel and handle better than they look.

A friend on another forum from Netherlands has a couple from new and he has said he tried sizing pellets but accuracy was crap so he reverted to buying the 5.4mm ball shot from Sweden but postage was crippling , what year is the match rifle you have and is still 5.4 mm ?
