Hunter Pro & Gamo Hunter pellets got the best groups ?

I cleaned up my Hunter Pro yesterday and took some of my best pellets to my 25yd range.
Being on a PCP kick I had not shot this gun years. It did not shoot very good at first. A lot of it was me as I'm rusty with what a springer demands. In the end I Forgot how nice this gun is.
I tried a couple of Beeman's best H&N pellets, Gamos own new TS-10 and finally Gamo Hunter domes. not he Hunter Pro pellets.
Oddly enough the perfect shaped higher priced pellets could not group as well as the cheap Hunter pellets.
I went back and forth after discovering the Hunters to make sure it actually shot tighter and it does.
It was a lot of fun to watch the gun hit so close to what I was aiming at, when I didn't flinch that is.
Made in Spain I've forgot who made this for Gamo. I do remember tearing her down and doing a lot of cleaning polishing, shimming and honing with good end results to smooth-en her out.
I just can't get over the fact that it shoots better with cheap pellets.

I have several springers that love the Gamo Hunters pellet's along with my Crosman M417. The Gamo Hunters are also a great hunting pellet of your shooter likes em. Ed

Well this is interesting, Got my first springer last Dec. (Gamo Hornet) and I bought a small tin of those. Of course I was new to the artillery hold and springers and figured the pellets were the issue. This was before lok-tite was used on it.
I have about 10-15 Hunter .177 left, might have to revisit them today.
That's great that a cheap pellet works good with your gun and thanks for sharing.

About 2 years back, I had a Gamo Big Cat that would shoot 1/2 inch groups with the Gamo Hunters. Sure, Gamo had accuracy nailed with that rifle, but not durability.

My MM tuned AR2078 loved the Gamo Hunters. It would put them in the same hole at 9yds.
