"Rifle" brand pellets?
- Thread starter ApexPredator
- Start date
Marty,
I've been eyeing the Rifle brand for a long time — but haven't found a way to get my hand on any of their pellets (wadcutters were not interesting to me).
Rifle has a bunch of very interesting pellets, interesting in weights and BC.
So, have you found a way to buy them?

They look great. I sorted them to 33.8-34.2 g, and lost 15%. Will shoot some tomorrow and report.

These were the first to arrive when I bought my .25 very good for me. I'd buy more but not available now.

These outshoot the JSB 33.95s, which were the best to date out of my rifle. The wind was up, so I kept my shooting at 25 yds. These will shoot .5 inches all day after being sorted to 33.8-34.2 gn. Found them on Ebay, and just bought 1000 more pellets. They have some left.

Recently received a tin of Rifle .22 18.67gr round heads and out of my RAW HMx LRT they had the same POI and accuracy as JSB 18gr going 950fps. They did have a higher pitch sound when hitting my target box was the only difference. Just too costly compared to JSB's would be my only gripe.

the Thunder ones are a close copy of the older JSB monsters
been using them a lot recently in 177 and they are very very close in performance.
the lead is a little harder, noticeable when pushing the pellet forward in my marauder.
I believe there is also another pellet which seems to be a diabolo shape and may be close to exacts

I also noticed a higher pitch when shooting the rifle brand as opposed to the JSB. The Rifle brand are outshooting the JSB, although I will wait to pass final judgment. I ordered my JSB Exact Kings from Sportsman's Guide. The tins were loose in a large box and got quite beat up.

Yes, upon impact a higher pitch sound...maybe because they are a harder alloy like lennyk said above? I do like them and they are accurate at close range...need to get to somewhere where I can shoot them farther and see the accuracy.
