blind dog 12 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Used crosman premiers years ago they came in a square cardboard boxif I remember correctly they were hand picked for exact weight and size then highly polished are these new crosmans the same if so I'm definitely getting some Atb Kev Kev, the CPs that come in a tin are good, but not sorted. The better cardboard box lots are still available and are still made from the same die in a given box. cheers, Rob Quote Link to post

slugger8770 0 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Hi Mate, I started a post about a month ago on the state of the AA Field pellets, I got some brilliant feedback from the chaps on here. I was so fed up with the quality of the pellets that I ended up E-mailing AA who got back to me after a while and said that they pay a premium to have their pellets double checked!!! Anyhow I sent the serial number from the base of the tin and received a perfect tin posted to me F.O.C. I am now put off using the pellets but quite happy with the replacement.

I think a lot of times it's down to the supplier, i order from BAR and am halfway through my last batch of ten tins WITHOUT any problems. It is also the same with my JSB's, all in .22. The delivery always comes well packaged Quote Link to post

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 Think I will just stick to Crosman pellets whilst they are of a quality that the guns like.... Quote Link to post
