Weihrauch - New Pellets

[Rossi2k]

Hi All

I have just noticed on a well known website distributer that Weihrauch have released a new (to me at least ) pellet range in .177 .20 and .22. These have been called the Weihrauch FT-Exact range. Looks like they are manufactured by JSB.

I was wondering if anyone has tried any of these in their air rifles and what the results were. The weights of each are listed as follows:

.177 - 8.44 gr
.20 - 13.3 gr
.22 - 15.89 gr

Seem to be reasonable prices but wondered if anyone has tried them in Weihrauch, Daystate or AirArms rifles.

Thanks

Ross

Cheers for posting, Ross.

I hadn't heard of these.

Subject to the usual testing to assess suitability, these could be good news. As a springer shooter, though, I'd probably give the .22s a miss as I prefer lighter pellets. I wonder if they launch a lighter "RS" or "Express" version?

Hi TonyL

Ive just been chatting to one of the guys from my local range about this. He has bought some of these in .177 and will be testing them soon after delivery arrives. Hopefully I'll be able to post a brief review of what he finds (and what I think if he lets me have a few )

Will look forward to these initial reports, Ross.

What site would that be Ross ? I would be very interested in trying myself.

I was not sure if I could post the website name, and if not I apologise moderators. Please feel free to delete. It was on Utt1ngs.

Thanks Ross, I'm sure it's ok to say, I will have a look

Those weights are suspiciously like the JSB Exacts and Jumbo Excats. Any pictures of them?

Yep, Having looked at the photos I am 90 % certain that they are JSBs. No wonder there is a shortage of JSB pellets.

The Weihrauch F&T in .22 are H&N FTT but 5.51 instead of 5.53 and the Weihrauch Exact are JSB Exact and again in 5.51.
I was told this by the importers.

I don't know if there's any difference in the .177 pellets

This information is correct. HW barrels are " tighter " than many of their competitors. I find most of the H&N pellets too tight for my HW barrels.
