I recently went on line to purchase some Crosman Premier 7.4 gr Pointed pellets.
Nobody had them in stock, and given the current shortage of powder powered ammo I sort of panicked and bought the closest thing I could find.
That was Crosman Premier 7.9 gr Super Point pellets.
I figured if the 7.4's work, why wouldn't the 7.9's from the same manufacturer?
The 7.9's arrived and, lo and behold, they do not fit into my Weihrauch rifle.
They can be forced into my Daisy 747 pistols but I fear that would do damage to the bolt over time.
They are also VERY tight in the Crosman Vigilante rotary magazines, but they do seem to shoot fine.
Anyone else have this or a similar issue with different weight pellets of the same caliber, from the same manufacturer?
FWIW...I emailed Crosman and the response stated "... Everyone [sic] pellets have a + or - in there [sic] variances. We only guarantee that the pellets are going to work in our guns, we do not guarantee that they will work in a different producers guns. ..."
