Air Rifle Pellet Database

An Air Rifle Pellet Photographic Database (updated 19/08/09). All the pellets have been photographed at x2 life size and then resized for the database.

Composite image of Pellet sections

For a reliable source of Pellet weights and BC values I would recommend this list provided by the Chairgun site. Please note that the stated pellet weights can easily vary by at least 5% due to manufacturing tolerances, if you are using a chronograph to check your rifles power output you should consider weighing the pellets being used.

Pellet Sections

A Selection of Pellets sectioned to show their profile. All of the pellets were photographed at x2 and x3 lifesize. It should be noted that the profiles do seem to vary depending on age, batch number and head size. JSB Exacts, the first two digits are the die number (unless there is a dash in front in which case it is the first digit), the last two are the year of manufacture and the batch number for that year is shown below the long number. The numbers between the first two and last two are not relevant.

If you are prepared to send me upto 4 pellets of any brands that are not included in the database so I can photograph and measure them please contact me. If you see any errors I would appreciate you contacting me so that I can correct them.

Using a chronograph can be made simpler using a new software programme called Chrono Connect. This software allows a computer to be connected to your Chrony or Combro chronograph to record and analyse your pellet string data.

Another pellet list and air rifle power calculator can be found here on the Extorian website.

Want to know what pellet your Air Rifle is likely to be most accurate with? Try this compiled list.


This database has been supported by members from the Glevum Target & Sports Club and the AirgunBBS forum including;

  • relivingmyyouth (who provided the majority of the original pellets to start the database)
  • Target Bunny – pellet selection and sections
  • Jackel – Ox Nato, Eley Wasp Magnum and Webley Hustler Needlepoint pellets
  • Ric O’Shay – Piledriver and Prometheus pellets
  • Bob Ruggles – Defiant and Prometheus pellet selection
  • Snock – Sussex Sabo 0.22 pellet
  • Tweaky – JSB Jumbo heavy 0.22 pellet
  • Tonys Camo – Challenger, Lanes, Gamo and Eagle pellets
  • Pavel – the complete range of JSB Match Diabolo pellets
  • Tony – the complete range of Skenco pellets
  • Clashed – 0.177 King airgun Slug
  • Sam Vimes – Various pellets and JSB variants for sectioning
  • xpetop – Champion Challenger pellet
  • ZaksGod – Dynamil Nobel pellet
  • ? – Webley No. 1 pellet
  • deebee – a collection of pellets from France

    This is an awesome database for the air rifle pellets i’ve never seen anything quite like it. Thanks for your time for the rest of us out there!

  2. December 30th, 2009 at 04:21 | #2

    Here in Mexico, we have some companies that build their own pellets, for example:

    Mendoza
    Cabañas

    If you need pictures of them, I can take some.

    http://www.mexicoarmado.com/album.php?albumid=1121&pictureid=7263
    In this photo appears Cabañas (the red one) and Mendoza (the ones that are in front of Cabañas and back, front of the Gamo Rocket., but also Gamo.

    hi KEV, i think there is a listing error for the prometheus Z25, it is a .25 calibre.
    you have it as a .22 calibre

    December 26th, 2009 at 12:45 | #6

    @GERRY
    sorted kev, just what i have been looking for. i have been collecting .22 tins, boxes and all containers, often stated with original contents.
    now i can compare them, and if neccessary, re claim some money back from those who have clearly tried to deceive me and other collecters, for financial gain in the auctions.
    if there are any pellets that you think i might have, that you may require, drop me a line.

    hi its stated to weigh pellets if using a chrono would a 0.01g be adequate or would i need to go as far as 0.001g set of scales

  10. November 27th, 2009 at 12:48 | #11

    hallo kev,

    what is the distance between mpe65 and the dias? do you have a werkfoto of your equipment?

    if your mpe65 is wrong, you can reech the same results with old ef 28-105 + retroadapter ring :-) )))))

    regards,

    zoltan

    • November 27th, 2009 at 13:12 | #12

      Hi Zoltan,

      this is my basic setup and I use a very small studio setup to photograph the pellets. The distance from the objective to the pellets is approx 1 inch

    November 18th, 2009 at 03:04 | #13

    Pellets I’d like to see: .177 Gamp Raptor P.B.A., .177 Daisy Precision Max, .177 Gamo Red Fire

    • November 18th, 2009 at 12:32 | #14

      I think I have at least two of those pellets waiting to be photographed. I use a Canon MP-E65 lens to photograph the pellets and that is currently away being serviced so I have a backlog of about 100 pellets waiting to be catalogued

    Kev, thank you very much for a well thought out overview of the wonderful pellet selection we have available to us. I especially appreciated the listing of the pellet weight, head diameter, skirt diameter and ballistic co-efficient. Everything in one place.

  13. October 10th, 2009 at 12:28 | #16

    Absolutely fantastic stuff Kev, so many people say air arms and JSB exacts are the same but I know by taking macro photos of pellets myself they are not the same. Nice job Kev

  14. September 29th, 2009 at 22:12 | #17

    I have a sleeve of Lapua Air Silhouette pellets. .177 – no other info known.

    Shoot me an address and I’ll send a few to you.

    I’d be interested in knowing what they are (specs). They work great in my Nitro – too heavy for the R7.

    Thanks,

    Bill

    Thank you for sharing a very worthwhile resource for all serious airgunners here. I appreciate the efforts you put into this. How can I send pellet samples from my part of the world? Again, congratulations for a wonderful site.

    I’d be willing to send you about 30 pellets that you don’t have. Mostly brands from US.

    Your contact form is locked. How can we contact you?

    • September 6th, 2009 at 07:47 | #21

      sorry, I have recently changed the contact system and didn’t check it actually worked :( I’ve sent you an email

    Amazing info and excellent photographs. I’d love to include the B.C.’s and muzzle velocities in my ballistic calculator… Would you mind?

    Photosbykev reply: the BC information has been used, with permission, from the Chairgun site it would be appropriate to contact the author directly to ask for clearance but it is public information
