    PREDATOR JSB GTO 6.35 lead free - WHERE to Buy ?

    Have tried before posting here , but I cannot find any of these lightweight lead free pells , all hits on the Net seem to be USA .
    Are they made by JSB ? Or Predator ( whoever they are ? ) ?

    ps have already checked Ramsbottoms !

    No such pellet listed on JSB's web site it does list the Predator polymag .25 but no other Predator's in .25.

    So it looks like that is a pellet made in & for the USA market, Pyramid Air or Airguns of Arizona will probably export them.

    You could try e-mailing JSB to ask.

    Not really, the UK with the 12pfe law is probably the only country where a light weight .25 pellet would sell for hunting, and last time I checked JSB don't officially import any .25 pellet in to the UK.

    For the rest of Europe .25 is a high power calibre where 25gn+ works fine.

    which are you specifically after ? the light weight or the lead free, I've used the Gamo PBA's in .25 (14gn) & they were total rubbish.

    A few other places do have low(er) power limits - lower than UK but still like using .25 - Germany .
    They are all sub 7.5J there but still manage to want .25
    Yes heard about Gamo's offering and heard the same likewise .
    Just interested in trying some out .

    Lead Free pellets are hopeless. I wouldn't bother with if I were you.

    Have you ever tried any of these ' Lead Free ' pellets in any caliber. I have been highly disappointed by both the .177 and .22 Barracudas. Very low power and highly inaccurate in my PCPs and TX 200 HC .22 where I thought the lighter weight might be an advantage.

    Yep I've had the same but for the cost of a tin they've got to be worth a try

    It is the damned price of these useless pellets that is like rubbing salt in the wound.
