.25 PELLET advice
.25 KODIAKS are are not expected in, until 9-1-09 now.
I have been using 34 grain eun jins for hunting turkeys with great success, however, I am almost out of .25 pellets. My question is what do you think the next best pellet (beeman) would be for turkey size game? accurate to atleast 75 yards. I was thinking about the crow mag. but would like input from others with .25 cal experience.

Dang! I’m glad I still have around 18 tins of heavy .25 EJ’s.
Sounds like someone could make a little side money… 😉
I can see it now…”1 tin of heavy .25 UJ for sale…$50″ 😉
JK!! Glad I don’t have a .25……………yet…………..

Well I called Beeman today. They tell me that they should have them at Beeman by mid may to the first of June. Then they will ship to the suppliers. They told me that this could take up to a month. They sure are pricey at Beeman! I have no Idea what the i Sept. thing is all about. 😕 They won’t or can’t give me an answer!

ahhh shit is the shortage hitting pellets too…..for fucks sake….
out of my rapid, only kodiak work, crowmags are ok if not pushed too hard, but forget about it past 30 yards
i got some laser, silver arrow….and they just dont shoot good in my rifle.
i got a nice stock of 42 grain EJ from last year
in my .25 condor, it was basicly the same story, kodiaks the only thing that works followed by crowmags
jsb allways seems to be in shortage…. top gun airgun sells them by the case, and usually has them in stock
That is EXACTLY why there are none available. Everybody is hoarding like hell in full-panic mode.
I just ordered 4 tins of JSB heavy in .22, only 3 shipped. Looks like trouble in there too.
I wouldnt be surprised if the Somalians have tons of pellets for sale.
I got some that are good accuracy wise they are Spitz-Kugeln, 24.85grn. pointed, I’ll vouch for them, but the heavier ram jets may work better, never tried to much outside of the slugs and ejs.
GTBJ I couldn’t agree with you more. WTF! Can’t keep up with demand??? Buy another machine, run another shift, buy more lead. You guys better get your order in, My friend ordered something like 24 tins.
I was looking for some the other day, and every web sight said they were out and it would be something like 9/1 before they would be in stock.
WTF is up with this, and why can’t a compony keep up with demand? one or two weeks would be expectable once and a great wile, but this is a joke!
I called today to see if it was a misprint, they said that they would check it out and call me back . No call back . 🙁

9/1/09??? Five months away?
Day-um. Forgettaboutit….
.25 barrels up For Sale in 3, 2, 1…. 😥 :3
Crows tend to go a little wild at distance. I can pop squirrels all day at 25-30 yards with Crows. Kodiaks work better at distance.
You could try some of the slugs that Jerry’s Kids make(no not Jerry Lewis)

Hey Riff, understand that he won’t be getting these until Sept. and that’s IF they don’t get back ordered even further. Besides, is 24 tins enough to run them dry?
