Title: Norma .22 wadcutters - 200 for $2.99
Post by: Kragman1 on May 07, 2022, 03:07:23 PM
Prices continue to drop.  And I THINK they are blister packed and should survive Midways "whatever" approach to packaging.
FYI - shipping is free if your order cracks $50.
$50 will get you 17 tins to your door.
I did 15 tins and a 10oz can of Hornady One Shot gun oil for $50.  Oil is great stuff and was also on sale.  Probably the best I know for protecting blued steel.  Even on springer barrels.

Has anyone tried these in a Crosman 1322 or 2240?

How about an Avenger or DAR??

Just tried them in my P-Rod and Gladius. About as accurate a CPHP in the P-Rod, which is pretty good. Not bad in the Gladius at mid power level, all over the page and way too fast on high. No surprise there. I will be ordering a bunch.

Purchased these from Midway a while back.
Mine didn't survive the shipping with the Midway packaging. Midway does have very simple on line return process!

I was going to purchase 17 tins of the same brand pellets. But I was told to pay for shipping of $15.5. Did you use some coupons to get free shipping? Thanks. Btw, I live in NJ. Does that make a difference? I doubt it.

Midway runs free shipping  on a regular basis, but it is not running today.

Thanks Bob, for clearing it up.

FYI - mine came in yesterday, all were blister packed, and this time they used some crumpled heavy paper to fill the air gap.
Some of the cardboard backers were a little crumpled but only a little and in general they seem fine.  Better packed than last time.

YMMV...

 I have had a chance to shoot them out of my PP700 .22, they fly straight and true, and pack a wallop on starlings  8)
