Title: Who makes the lightest grain pellet in 25 cal ?whr
Post by: 808airhead on August 06, 2017, 12:58:26 AM

Where can I find the lightest grain 25 cal pellet?  I have a Crosman 13xx converted to 25 cal and I wanted to test different ammo.

Lightest I know of are the H&N FTT's/Hatsan Vortex pellets at 19.91gr in lead or the Predator GTO non lead at a little over 16gr but they're something like $17 for a tin of 150.

I’ve got some Gamo raptor pba that’s 14 grain I think.  It doesn’t shoot at all from my 13xx in .25 cal.

I have a bezillion Gamo .25 19.9gr pellets that I bought on a good sale right after I bought my Marauder.  They aren't horrible in the Marauder, but not nearly as tight as the JSBs or Benjis.  I just use them for mindless shooting at big targets.

I made a 1325XLT carbine that hit 650 fps with the H&N 19.9g  using a 2100 pump tube with an extended (extra .3") valve nose... using  19" barrel (XL 725)... was  accurate  to 30-40 yards...

I stuck with a pump cup a flat top piston would have been a bit more powerful.

        I don't know if they are still available, but there was a pellet called Milbro Rhino; these weighed in at 19.0 grs. and they shot very well out of my BSA Supersport. BSA also made a .25 pellet called the Pylarm that weighed in at 18.6 grs. and they also shot well in my .25's. I haven't purchased any of these in several years, so I don't know if they are still being made.....................
