Daisy made in Spain wadcutters .177

So the tins say 9.6 but they're 7.6? Do they say made in China or Spain?

I didn't order, thanks for posting 

If they are the carded package I'd be interested in the weight or the entire package in grams...

Country of origin yes, but no weight is listed on the tins or packaging. Weight is only listed on manufacturers web site. Everyone else selling these pellets got weight from manufacturer. When manufacturer changed source (from China to Spain) they did NOT properly track or document the change in weight. MANY places still list the incorrect pellet weights INCLUDING the manufacturer. This was either REALLY SLOPPY or INTENTIONALLY DECEPTIVE.

They are in a blister pack and labeled Made in Spain. There is no weight shown on the tins or the blister pack. The weight was listed as 9.6 grains in the description on the Gamo website.

I meant put the unopened blister pack on an accurate scale that can measure grams..

I don't have anything accurate enough to weigh a pellet

I don't have an accurate scale that will weigh something as heavy as a full tin. I'm using my PB reloading scale.

This is the response I got from a customer service rep at Daisy/Gamo/BSA/Winchester.


Thank you for contacting Gamo. I am sorry there seems to be a discrepancy in the grain size. You are welcome to return the entire order for a refund if you would like. If that is what you would like to do, please let me know and I will create a RMA for you.

the tins with the gold lettering where 9.6 gr (great pellets), but when they changed to the white lettering the pellets dropped in weight to about 7.6 gr. But i dont think the tins have the weight labelled anywhere... in fact, im looking at mine and they do not. they are not a waste, though. I use them on my pea shooters with great success. any gun that shoots less than 7 fpe shoots them well.

I haven't shot any yet, but I they do look like nice pellets. I'll paste my response to the customer service rep below. I haven't had an answer yet, but I do hope they will fix the weight discrepancy on the website.




I have already opened the packaging for all 3 tins to confirm the weights on my scale. I will use these pellets but they are not what I was expecting. Please fix this issue quickly because I am not the only potential buyer who is upset.

Where's the like button ... 

The gold letter tins shoot well in my Daisy 880, but it's been so long I have no idea if it likes anything else...

I just grabbed the first gold/black carded tin and white/black carded tin on my "pellet storage rack" and put them on my postal scale. The scale is NOT sensitive enough to weigh individual pellets. What I usually do to get a specific pellet weight "average" is count out 100-200 pellets and weight them on this scale. Then convert the ounces to grains and divide by number of pellets. That's all the accuracy I need for now.

see attached image/table for details...

Thanks Michael, this could be pretty helpful!

I tried some 12 yard groups with the hpa Chaser carbine pushing them around 700 fps. They're good enough for plinking and close range pest control but that's about it.
