Eley Wasps?

[andyfr1968 772]

Hi, folks.

 

I posted on a thread a little while back about how different pellets can perform through different guns and remembered how well Wasps went through an HW80 (.22) I had many moons ago. They were well made, consistant, old school fair enough but worked really well, so I bought a tin to try out again.

 

Ok, so I'm going back maybe 15+ years but the sh*t I've just put through my 410 bears little or no resemblence to the Wasps I used (and I used a lot!!) back then. Total crap!!!

 

They look like they've been hand made by Steven Hawkins on a bad day! What's happened to them??

 

Real shame......

 

Poor show, Eley, get it back, please??

 

Cheers. But not to Eley.......

Phantom highly rates the Milbro pellets for putting in a Tic Tac box and rattling to attract magpies, surely the Eley Wasps would be up to that task???

 

Seriously though, I used to use the 5.6mm flavour in my BSA Airsporter and the performance was outstanding

I use them in my diana panther 31 (.22 5.6mm) its the only pellet that works well in the hunk of crap!!

 

Its my backup gun good enough for rat blattin!!

 

I know what you mean though the quality of them is garbage very badly made!!

Yeah, they used to be great in the old British guns. I used them in an old Airsporter too and they were first class.

 

 

Long time ago though.... Real shame Eley have dropped the ball.

 

Cheers.
