Hello,

     Would you folks that have a RWS Model 350, in .22 cal., please send  a list of your best shooting pellets. It will save me some time and money. Best of luck...

I don't think many people have 350s, so you might not get a lot of responses.

So I thought I would offer what I have read, but is not from personal experience.

Apparently the 350 likes medium weight due to it being a long stroker.

You might want to try Crosman Premiers (14.3 gr) or JSB DIABOLO EXACT JUMBO(15.8 gr)

I have a 350 in .22 that I absolutely love.  I tested crow magnums, crossman premiers, crossman premier hollow points, crossman premier pointed,crossman premier domed,  kodiaks, and RWS Super Hollow points.  All of those pellets actually shot well through my gun, but the 3 pellets that gave me the absolute tightest, most accurate groups were the the Crossman hollow points, the crow magnums and the Kodiaks,,, in that order.  I now have the rifle sighted in at 25 yards and set up for the crossman hollow points, which pretty much shoot almost one hole groups for me.  The crow magnums shoot almost the same quality groups for me, just a little more "open", and for some reason a little to the left as compared to the point of aim I have set for the crossman hollow points.  The Kodiaks shoot beautiful tight groups, but due to their much heavier weight their POI at 25 yards is a couple of inches lower than the scope setting I'm using for the crossman hollow points, however since I have a mildot scope installed on the rifle I found that if I simply use the mildots to compensate for the heavier Kodiaks I can hit bullseyes everytime. There may be better shooting pellets out there that I haven't tried but I honestly doublt I could get any better accuracy/groups than these crossman hollow points are giving me. I'm really looking forward to doing some serious small game hunting once the season open here in the fall.   Hope this helps you out, enjoy your rifle.
