I read that Gamo 22 round balls are really .215, thus maybe explaining why they roll out the barrel of my Haenel 22 pistol. Did some research and found F shot is 22 cal. You can buy it by the bag.

Anyone ever try this, before I order 8 lbs of shot that could be a bust? Calculates out to 3500 rounds! Lol

If it does work out, I'll go in for a thousand with you if it's viable postwise.

You do realize the postage will be about $66 if they use a USPS fixed rate box
They say the shot is swaged and perfectly round.

Here are specs: (not intended for airguns)? Got to worry you? I sent an email to the company.

Probably the diameter is not consistent enough for serious use. Or slightly oversize for any typical BB-power gun. Airgun .22 barrel bore size is actually slightly smaller than .22. Possibly good for a break barrel where the closing action would force the ball into the rifling, automatically sizing it, also probe-loaded magazine guns, where this is done by hand, but on some other guns it may take far too much energy to do so.

This is what came back from the manufacturer of the F shot:
"Good morning Steve,
Our Lead Super Buck is manufactured using buckshot specs and buckshot tolerances. It is heavily QC’d and maintains tighter-than-industry tolerances. However, We do not test it in or intend it for use in other applications.
V/S
Jonathan"
They are covering their behinds, be fascinating experiment but is it worth $45? with the chance of failure probably high?
And for me my Haenel 28 .177's are probably better shooters and I already have the perfect ammo for them.
