These are a 15.1 grain pointed pellet that I picked up at my local sporting goods store for 3.49 per 175 count tin, the top of the tin just slips on so you have to be careful not to spill them. There wasn't any deformed skirts in 3 of the tins that I bought, they have a lot of graphite on the pellets so they leave your fingers black. They aren't the tightest fit in my B26 though my gun does seem to fire them just as accurate as the other brands I have tested so go figure? These pellets have been doing a number on blackbirds around my yard, going straight through them with authority at 25 to 30 yards which is where I get most of my shots from. Every bird that I have hit has died quickly, so in sumation, my gun shoots them well even though they aren't the tightest fit and they knock the heck out off the birds I've hit with 'em. And they're weren't a bunch of deformed skirts in the tins that I bought. I like these pellets o.k. But the crosman premium pointed pellets fit the breech of my gun a lot better and they come 175 to a tin also for almost .75 cents per tin cheaper and the crosmans have a threaded top for their tins.
