    Cheers.
    Slightly different tack - any updates on the Umarex Havox copper pellts, please.

    Many thanks,

    Why be awkward, when with a little bit of effort you can be really impossible!

    You can spend thousands and still miss a barn door or spend just enough and enjoy yourself. If you haven't got the talent to start with a million pound won't fix it. Whippet, Russell, a few bang sticks and a flat cap. http://www.smart-tech1st.co.uk

    Why don't these companies just put all their effort into making one really good pellet instead of 20 shit ones with gimmicks.

    That is a little unfair considering they are new to the market. I for one appreciate the price and if they shoot well its a win win.

    Nice prices at Ramsbottoms .

    On a general note how many Airgun Pellet makers do people here on this forum think there actually are ?
    Most all outside the main three in Europe - are made by the main three .
    Sub contracted pellet manufacture to whomever wants and can pay - re-tinned , re-labelled but all coming from a very small talent pool of few manufacturers .
    Thats the nature a heavy industrial process such as lead work and has been common knowledge for decades .
    You'd be really surprised at just who actually makes some premium pellets .

    Cos there is no such thing . Too many differences in barrels , rifling . That's before you go into barrel flaws .
