    overview
    From the makers of the world’s most accurate .22LR cartridges comes ELEY's 0.177cal air pellet range.


    ELEY has discovered that the diameter of the air pellet is key to optimum performance and flight. Ensuring that the pellet is the right fit for the barrel is essential - our range of three diameters (4.49mm 4.50mm & 4.51mm) is designed so that shooters can find the correct size for their pistol or rifle.


    All ELEY ventus pellets weigh 0.53g / 8.2gr, which from our research is the optimum for both air rifles and air pistols. The consistent delivery of air pressure in rifles and pistols is crucial to performance, and minimising the variance from pellet to pellet within a batch also has a huge effect on accuracy. At ELEY we make all our pellets to extremely tight weight tolerances and can claim over 30% superior weight variance within a batch.


    The pellets are packed in a patented resealable and damage resistant box. The box is sectioned into four compartments overlaid with a foam cushion which minimises movement of the pellets and softens the impact if dropped.

    Maybe some one will buy them in and sell sample packs .
    All sounds good but smells expensive

    I find the RWS R10s more than adequate for any precision shooting. Will look forward to seeing how these perform.

    The dies were sold off so they would need new dies made. Plus I dare say the wasp name does not belong to them now.

    Possibly the same people that make the newer WASP pellets. I did read the dies were wearing out and if the people making rhe newer ones bought them it maybe one of the reasons the new ones are garbage.
