    I recently picked up a full (red) tin of .177 Eley Wasps for £15.
    They're in good condition as is the tin but I don't know what I'm going to shoot them in as yet.
    Just seemed to be a nice thing to have as you don't come across them frequently !

    I have several tins of 5.5 Mauve tin and 5.6 Pale Blue tin both of which I use on my BSA Airsporters and Webleys.

    £41? Yikes.

    At least that helps make Defiant Vintage seem good value.

    I can sort of understand the interest in 5.6mm wasps, but not the 4.5s. There is a guy on e thing right now offering ten tins of .177"s for £170. But what do they do better than modern .177" pellets?

    Forgot to say the postage on them was an extra £3.95 so total is just 5p short of £45 PS Don't tell the wife
