.197 caliber piranha pellets??

[Pelletsmasher]

What is this poo? I just got my new hw77 and was @ my local crapmart picked me up some .177 crossman premier piranha10.5 grain pellets. And they literally did not fit my breech. I figured I grabbed .22s by accident... NOPE. 

PLAN B micrometer freshly checked with my micro blocks reads. .198, .197, .197, .198, .199, .197, .198 #notcool

U bet they would rock a .20 cal

Consider the source maybe?

Ya but seriously how about some QC at the pellet factory, I know its mid -vid season but these look like the 10.5 grain domed just with an 8 pointed Die smashed in. they forgot to put in the sizer sleeve at all maybe?

• They say, if you play with fire — you're gonna get burned.

• They say, if you play with Piranhas — you're gonna get bit. (It's true, ask me how I know.)

• They say, if you play with cheap pellets — ......



I'm sorry, mate, that those pellets didn't work out for you. I have some, too, and their size seems OK, but they still don't shoot worth a you-know-what.



Hope you have better luck next time.

Maybe I can help with a list of 30 online pellet sellers, here's the link: https://www.airgunnation.com/topic/this-is-the-last-pcp-ill-ever-need/page/2/#post-1135053

Naaa it's just at the wrong angle in the picture .that much is old but accurate. I triple checked. Plus if they were. 176 they would FIT .. but in 4 guns they don't fit.

I have a can bought 2 years ago that are the same. I thought they were labeled wrong. Still have them. JCS

I wonder if there is anyone with a .20 cal that could use them. They would be a tad loose. But better than waaaay too tight. Offer: free can of .198 - .197 caliber crossman piranhas! @ 498/ 500 left
