Other Pellet / New WH30s Question

[Tarheel]

Embarrassing Question: I received my nw HW30s yesterday - the first real air gun i have ever held. The only pellets I have are Crosman "Recreational POINTED .177 Cal / 7.4 grain. From recommendations on this forum I have a list of preferred pellets. No one sells these where I live so I placed an order from Pyramid Air but it will take a week to get them. Will it damage my rifle to use the pellets I have? Perhaps shooting 50 or so pellets a day while awaiting the "right" pellets that are on order. This really emphsizes that I know so little about air guns!
I also ordered a PatchWorm with extra patches and I will clean the barrel when that arrives
My new HW30s is a work of art. The workmanship is unbelievable!
THANKS, Tarheel

No, they won't hurt your gun. I think you will find those pellets are not nearly as accurate as some of the recommended pellets.

No problem. Any .177 cal pellet is fine. Before you start using the new ones, I recommend you clean the barrel.

Any lead pellet is fine.

Pointed pellets are iffy anyway .

My rR/hw95 shoot the crosman hunter pointed .177 pretty good . I just don't know if crosman makes 2 kinds

One pointed is more like a semi pointed and one is a sharp point pointed ? ( Super points ??)


Hunter


For the money and easy to grab everyday Walmart the crosman hollow points do great in my stuff .

Thumbs up on the patch worm.
I’m using cphp for my first tin in my HW35 with satisfying results. I notice things are smoothing out, maybe it’s me, or both.
A smile is worth a thousand words.

I don't mind a pellet picky gun as long as it picks cphp . . I pretty much shoot them exclusively 99.3872% of the time . Lol..
