Im shortly going to upgrade my 50 yr old springer to something (.22 calibre) a bit more modern. I’ve been using 5.6mm pellets. Will these work in a modern barrel or should I go over to 5.5 mm pellets ?

Quite possibly not ideal, but you don’t know until you try.Originally Posted by Bsa2
Depending on what pellets they are, there may be interest on here for the vintage gun collectors (so things like 1920s Webleys and BSAs etc.) Or else invest in a pellet resizer if you fancy spending many hours doing that.

No sell them to me.
I'll give you the 2/6 that you paid for them.

If you can afford too, keep your old gun until you have tried the new one.
You may not like it as much.

I have had good results with the H&N FTT 14.66 gr 5.53 mm pellets in my HW95L .22.

Not going to get rid of old bsa had it to long. Been looking at a Weihrauch 99s as a upgrade

Then you’re keeping the pellets anyway, so try them. However I don’t think I could get a 5.6 Wasp in any of my Weihrauchs. Assumed by your online name you’re a bit of a BSA fan…
