My understanding is they (the Premier Lite 7.9gr) are discontinued and have been for a while now. They were only 1250ct boxes, so $40 would be a princely sum for them. They are certainly very good pellets either way.
@thumper I have not seen a pellet advertised as “Premier Lite,” only “Premier Domed,” “Premier Hollow Point,” etc. These are .177, 10.5 grain domed pellets (14.3 grain in .22).
Yes.
Chuck, there is a version of Pelletgage, PelletgageR - made to sort pellets more efficiently. Each gage plate has 48 identical apertures. You can "stack" a larger gage plate over a smaller, and for instance use a 4.53 and a 4.51, sorting 48 pellets into three groups, >4.53, >4.51<4.53, and <4.51. 10-20X faster than doing it one pellet at a time, pain relieved. I have had others tell me that Steyers get much better groups after sorting for a specific head size. Here is a link to a video https://www.bakerairguns.com/general/introducing-the-pelletgager/
The old Go- No Go gauge , or calibrated thumb technique!
Didn’t see this thread until today but Ed’s comments are spot on with my experience. The once vaunted boxed pellets are mediocre at best. The ordinary tinned pellets from back around 2012 - 2013 tended to be better than the boxed ones today.
They all get used.
