Good Price, Gamo Match Pellets .177 Tin of 500, $4.00 Free Shipping

[RedFeather]

Well, I popped for five.  Still don't rightly know what likes them or not.  Now, how come this doesn't come up on the Specials page?

I just remembered reading on another thread(can't remember where !!), that they had trouble with some Gamo wadcutters that were slightly undersized. Maybe Gamo is just trying to get rid of the bad ones. A price this low with free shipping seems too good to be true, ya know ???

Well, too late.

Whoever gets the first shipment please let us know if Gamo has problems.  Not all pellets work in all guns or something like that.  They should work in Gamo’s.  We can all email Gamo on, The proper way to care for customers.
I ordered 5 tins.

Careful!  I posted this on another forum.  Someone replied that they bought the pellets and a bottle of genuine Gamo oil, then discovered they had been hit up with $9 shipping charges.  Looks like, if you combine this, you will pay the freight.

To All,

I got my pellets today from Gamo! I was not charged for shipping from looking at my banks statement. The pellets are in the new tins pictured below. I have not shot them for grouping for I don't have a pellet trap for indoor shooting. I did load and shoot some out the back door in the HW50s, HW30 and the Daina M40. They all fit in the breach and don't seem to be undersized. They do need a good washing, becuase like all Gamo pellets there are lead slivers from the machinery. I'm thinking at this early stage I may have gotten a deal. I will shoot some of them tomorrow.

I haven't gotten mine yet, :(
Wondering what up. Did you track your package?

[Froghunter]

Not too, bad at 10 yards with the HW50S and HW30. Every time I shot the Lil HW30 I fall more in love with it. It will shoot just about everything great! I have the scope off the Daina 40, so I was not able to throw lead down range with her! Maybe torrow!

Looks good.

Got mine today.  It's a miracle it made it.  They packed it in a single layers bubble envelope (yellow) that looked like it was ready to explode.  I could hear pellets roaming around inside the package but none actually spilled out.  The envelope barely, and I mean barely held it all in.  

Still, only one tin had opened and only one tin had a light ding in it so the pellets made it safely.


Soooo much lead particles in the tins.....

[RedFeather]

Was the tin open or slightly shut?  Curious, that.  See my post.

[Black Mamba]

My tin that was open looked like it had been opened and then hastily shut back up with perhaps 1 turn.  That is why there were about 100 pellets floating around in the envelope.

I really feel for ya RedFeather.  That was a *_*_*_*_*_* poor packing if I've ever seen one.

[RedFeather]

I honestly think the packager intentionally dumped pellets.  How else could two tins close themselves back up?  Someone at Gamo not get their raise?

[tckhan]

Got my two tins today. Same manila envelope from Houston, MO. Guess im lucky in that it looked fine, and the tins are perfect. I still cant see how they are making any money since the USPS postage stamped on the envelope is for $6.35. That leaves them $1.63 for the 2 tins and envelope......!

[kgatwork]

Same here!  Ouch!

One opened of 5 tins, with pellets all inside the envelope.  The opened tin was banged up a bit.  My guess this happened during it's stay with the USPS.
