Get yourself a "sampler pellet pack" from straightshooters.com  ,,,  as you know rifles are individuals when it comes to pellets.

Also depends on what you want to use the rifle for,,, hunting????  targets??????  although a good domed pellet can be quite effective at both.  I've found that superdomes and CPL's usually work well for me in quite a few of my rifles,,, good place to start anyway......

Well, I can't speak for the Shadow Sport, but with my Whisper, the best pellet for overall use is Crosman Premier Lite Domes (7.9)  :)


I've tried everything Gamo has to offer and even though I get higher chrony numbers with the Gamo stuff, the Premiers are far more consistent, even in windy conditions...


Short range, long range, hard impact, penetration, it does it all very well and still remains consistent  8)


The Premier Hollow Points are my second choice and what I usually use for close range....
