    I was lucky to be given some a while back, my Webley Falcon loves them but eventually I've got to find an affordable replacement as the new ones aren't the same and NOS is not always easy to get or cheap.

    I've still got 1/2 a tin of old wasps, my airsporters shoot ftt better. My mercury seems to do best with RWS super H point. Regards Max

    I've still got some Wasps. Did some chronoing with my standard BSA Mercury Challenger a month or two ago. 11.6 with Daystate Soverign, 11.2 with AA field and 13.2 with Wasps! They've probably got the weight wrong!

    I would check it properly by weighing the pellets etc. Wasps are lighter than the other two and will likely give a higher m.e. They do in my mercury s but it doesn't come close to being hot.
