QYS .22 Pellets

[Old Lobby]

I was given a tin of these tonight by a club member. They were given to him but he no longer has a .22

I will try them in my 3 .22 sub 12 ft/lbs air rifles and let you know how I get on.

I had heard they might become available but I now have a tin.

How long is it that they've been coming "any time soon!"
I actually thought it wouldn't happen. Well that's me wrong again

 

[pjgtech]

Where'd he get them from? any idea's?

I prefer under 16 grains for a .22 springer personally. Im sure for PCP these will be very good though

I believe they come in 17gr and 20gr so looking forward to getting hold of them to try out.

 

[Trumpetier]

So £28 plus post for 500. Errr, I'll give em a miss.

Yes, serious money for pellets but newness always wears off so we will all get a go eventually I reckon

 

[Old Lobby]

I said I would give these a go. Here are the results of my first go with the QYS .22. (20 grain) pellets v JSB Hades.

I did not zero the scopes so I expected the QYS to drop a bit. 6 shots per group 25 yards. Bipod with gun in shoulder.


My opinion… not a huge amount of difference in the groups.

Quite a lot of difference in the cost (as already mentioned) of these pellets so I will stick with Hades. I am lucky to have been given them.

Hope they do the streamlined they are good in most of my guns.

 

[Old Lobby]

I have done a bit more testing. My opinion remains the same. Good pellets but no better than others. I will buy a tin of 17 grain when available to test them.

I have not weighed individual pellets as I don’t have that facility. Quality seems equal to the .177 pellets. No deformed pellets found in my tin.

At present prices are more expensive than other equally good pellets. If tins of 500 were available at the same price as (for example) Hades pellets then I might buy some.

In .177 QYS streamline are my go to pellets.
