GREAT DEAL ON VOGEL WADCUTTER .177 PELLETS

[bandg]

How do the Vogel bulk pellets compare to the RWS Diabolo Basic in quality and accuracy? The Basics come in 300-ct tins, so $112+shipping from PA for the same quantity of 6000 pellets.

I haven't directly compared them as I only bought a couple of tins of the Vogels but the RWS Diabolo Basic pellets generally shoot well in my pistols. There was a closeout somewhere a while back (can't remember where now) on RWS R10 Match and I bought 15000 of those at a very low price. They are well made pellets.

Sorry-just noticed that I misread your question. I haven't received the bulk Vogel's yet. I had purchased a couple of tins of their Match pellets a while back.

Has anyone had problems with these "new" Vogel orders? I ordered some of their bulk pellets on 1/30 and have received nothing beyond an order confirmation.

For anyone wondering-my order placed on 1/30 is "due to be shipped" tomorrow 2/10. Not particularly fast but I guess everyone is having issues these days.

I had sent an email to inquire about shipping on the above order because I had not received a shipping email after several days. I received a very quick response from the company stating when the order would ship and I have since received it. Overall, acceptable time to receive and excellent response to request for info by their staff. As to the pellets themselves, I looked at random samples under 5 power magnification. The bulk .177 pellets I received are visibly very uniform in comparison to any other good brand. No parting line can be seen. A small percentage seem to have slight imperfections inside the skirt, both tiny "dents" and raised bumps but the skirt margins seem very consistent. The external surfaces are visibly excellent. Too cold here to shoot as we are in the heart of the cold area right now but so far I'm pleased with what I see. Actual shooting might be different but for the price these seem very good and the company seems responsive.

Got my Order from Vogel today. My order was delayed a bit, got nice email from Blake Egan apologizing for the delay & he threw in a extra tin of Vogel match at no extra charge. I tried them out in few pistols in basement range- they shoot great so far, will try them in some rifles soon. Again thanks for the heads up on the deal--

Wow that's a great price!

And for the price they seem extremely well made. Snow and cold here so I haven't been able to see how they shoot but they look really good even under magnification.

I received my order last week after it was stuck in the snow in Utah for awhile. No complaints though, as 2 extra tins were tossed in my order.

I grabbed two of the 6k buckets. It took me about 15 minutes to unwrap the packaging, well done!

Pellets look really nice, i need to do some shooting to test them out.
