Hi all, if anyone is using .177 Polymag shorts could measure the length and let me know. Thanks - Paul

Hey I've got a tin of them. Laying by my youngest trying to get him to go to sleep, will measure in a bit if nobody else has by then.

Right about 0.295 inches. 

I was surprised at how well they shot out of a BSA Gold Star. 10 under a nickel @ a bit past 50 yards. I think they did about 17-18fpe from that gun. Just included that to illustrate that, novelty pellet or not, there's some potential for really good accuracy with them.

Novelty or not they whack squirrels pretty good out to at least 25 to 30 yards this is out of a 17.5 fpe rifle and shoot surprising well out to abut 50 yards.

Most accurate pellet out of my HW100 BP-K. I've taken many a hosp and chipper at 40 to 48 yards with them.

Thanks for doing this. I had hoped that they would fit in my LP50 magazine but unfortunately it’s only .274 long. Oh well.....

I have bought some .22 Polymag shorts for my Puncher Breaker but I haven’t tried them yet.
