    10 tins of pellets cost a lot less than a gun and the gun doesn't work without them. If pellets work well then I don't see anything wrong with getting a good supply in. Who would have thought Eley Wasps would disappear?

    I've always used cheap air rifle pellets co uk for my RWS Superfields they do all the RWS stuff down to the 3.99 flathead things, forget the name but it took me ages to get through them in my pistols.

    I looked on the Ramsbottom site and unfortunately they are out of stock of some of the pellets I'm after. I will however keep an eye on their site for when they have them back in stock.

    .

    Yes exactly and so true man on the Eley Wasps
    As GSXRMAN may fail to realise most us used to buy in bulk when we found a 'good' pellet even down to the batch code . Always the done thing .
    Some us would even buy in multiples of 10 too , them's the good ole days they were .
    Right now is a good time to buy up especially in bulk .
    Bargains out there still to be had . BSA even if they are made in Spain have worked superbly well for me . Gamo . SMK .
    Some budget pellets are worth their weight in gold .
    I refuse to take advice from magazine monkeys telin me to forget budget pellets and buy premium . Why ?
    The proof is in the pudding and some the best pellets in my guns perform superbly but have cost a lot less than the high end big namers often quoted in print or here . JSB get a great name , especially in their superb quality control , but when you buy from a lot of sources the differences really pan out evenly .
    Sorry to peeps here who think otherwise but maybe they don't buy as much as some of us do .

    So true - I've got guns that are accurate with Daystate pellets and SMK - no difference in group size, so they get SMK - my view is that there's pellets that work & pellets that don't, and until you try them through the gun, you don't know which is which! (well, unless they're like some that I bought years ago, where there were holes in skirts, mis-shaped lumps of lead, then you know damn well they wont!)

    In my peak shooting days I used to go through a "box" of premiers a week, so yeah i used to buy a lot in at once.
    It was the "no lead ban" comment I was refering to.
