I just got back into airguns about 6 months ago. I live in Morgan County, Tennessee. I have 5 Walmart stores within 1.5 hours of me. (That's a normal one way trip to work sometimes when you're this rural.) Before 'rona my rifle was tolerating CPHP's. (7.9g) I got accustomed to paying a penny a piece for them but the last several tins were spiraling, etc. I emailed Crosman. They graciously sent me a couple tins of my choice. I chose the domed and hollow points in 10.5. Definitely better performance, but still not great.
So now none of my local retailers are carrying any pellets or are all out of stock. My local Ace Hardware had 1 (250 count) tin of Crosman premier wadcutters. (Not the match wadcutters) they performed well at 22 yards giving me .75 -1" groups. I can live with that out of an 880.
I would like to avoid paying 2-4 cents a piece for pellets. (Obviously I'm a tight ass lol.) Can anyone recommend a good source to order. I noticed most places selling the 500ct Crossman 10.5 online are $12! (5.99 at walmart locally) It appears I'm better off with wadcutters, but I have a question about the Crossman 1250 CT domes in the cardboard box. Are they really better pellets than the ones in the tins? I've found these avg $33 a box, with one place at $26.
What's your go to for budget minded decent pellets? Retail or Internet...
Thank you.
