    Blackrider,

    I use the below in my FWB300 (Not 'S') and 300SU with complete satisfaction :

    RWS R10 Pistol 4.50 (Nominal wt 7.0 gr., actual wt 6.99 gr.)
    JSB Match Green 4.50 (Nominal wt 7.3 gr., actual wt 7.32 gr.)
    Qiang Yuan Match 4.50 (Nominal wt 8.2 gr., actual wt 7.85 gr.)

    You can get the Qiang Yuan from Intershoot or Edenkille.

    I also use JSB Express 4.52 (Nominal wt 7.87 gr., actual wt 7.88 gr.) for shooting from 10 to 40 meters.

    Have fun

    Best regards

    Russ

    Russ I'm sorry to be SO pedantic but there is no way your measuring instruments are accurate enough to tell you that the pellet with a stated weight of 7.87 gr has an actual weight of 7.88. This applies to all of the measurements you quoted above. My A level physics master would call it 'spurious accuracy'. and he was right. This is along the lines of quoting power to 2 places of decimals when the pellets were taken straight from the tin without any attempt at weighing them. The fact that your pellet scales displays a number to 2 places of decimals does not mean it is accurate to that degree. It certainly isn't.
