    LGV .22 pellets

    What .22 pellet would you recommend for a Walther LGV Master pro??
    I know all barrels are different but an idea what you all use would be good.

    And what groupings you expect to get at 30 yards would be good

    Not speaking from personal experience with this rifle, Keith, but you'd have to put the JSB derivatives on any short list....the Jumbo and Air Arms Field. But, if your rifle preferred them, I'd be more inclined to go with the lighter Jumbo RS / Falcon Accuracy Plus.

    And never discount the H&N FTT and RWS Superdome.

    It just goes to show that all barrels are not alike, the batch I had worked better than all the rest I tried.

    My .22 Century does one hole groups with JSB Express.

    H&N FTT however barely fit into the barrel (very tight).

    I expect that the FTTs are probably 5.53mm head size which I find tight in the breech of all my Weihrauchs.
    However, Weihrauch market their own range of pellets in their recommended sizes for their barrels. The 0.22" versions are produced in 5.51mm which fit more comfortably and produce higher muzzle velocities.
    There is an H&N FTT version sold as F&T Special and a JSB version sold as F-T Exact Jumbo. They both work very well in all of my Weihrauch rifles.

    The FTTs that I have work fine in my HWs but are too tight in the Century.

    Well as I said, the H&N FTTs are tighter than the 5.51mm Weihrauchs so it may be worth trying them in your Century.
