OK, its confirmed… .25 RWS Superdomes…
…suck ass. 👿 😡
4-5″ from a Condor at 40 yards, they slide almost down the barrel by themselves. Whats weird is they only measure .002 smaller on both ends compared to Kodiaks.
Shoot even worse from my neighbors Sumatra, he give me the tin back after 10 rounds.
Father-in-law picked up a Kodiak, it shoots them the best, around 3.5″ at 40 yards. This rifle prints .75″ with Kodiaks at 50 yards and he has just started shooting airguns. He kept one of the tins.
This isnt even plinking quality from RWS, bummer… 😥
Take a pass.

Im not convinced the velocity is the problem considering the loose fit in the bore.
I completely agree with you.A loose fit in the bore is definately a major problem.
They work well and are tight in Weihrauch’s but i don’t think these pellets are anybodies #1 goto pellet in any calibre nor do they warrant being.

Thanks for the tip!!!
I seriously thought about spending the bread money on the RWS 25’s.
I am sure glad I did not do it now:)
Sounds logical Wolfy, but my Father-in-laws Kodiak is shooting these @ 625fps almost exactly the same as Kodiaks. However the groups are a shame compared to the kodiaks.

RWS Superdomes in .22 as well as Superpoints are made for the 12fpe market and hate travelling at any speed in excess of 700fps.
I use both in all my air rifles to sometimes gobsmacking accuracy.Hole in hole at 50yds using superpoints in my HW97K.The same with superdomes with my HW80.They are boh equally matched at knocking daisies off their stems at 40yds in my stealth with an 18″ barrel travelling at 680fps.
Anything above 700fps i use H&NFTT as i couldn’t hit a playing card at 40 yds with RWS with any rifle.

I have a shitload of lasers that shoot all over and sometimes pile on top for a round strange , thanks for the tip Riff raff.
Strange that RWS would miss the spec’s by so much. .002 is huge when it comes to gun performance! 😯

I betcha they’d do fine in a tight BSA barrel….The .25s seem undersized considerably from what I here.

That’s to bad. Sounds like they will not work in my .25 guns.
