The latest rage in the Netherlands seems to be pellets that are virtually identical to a .22LR bullet, fired from a .224 (.223"?) barrel.... They are reportedly made by RWS and weigh 41.5 gr. but I can't find them on the RWS website.... I've seen photos, and they definitely look like .22LR bullets, right down to the hollow base and smaller diameter where they would sit in the case.... They are 0.472" long, and seem to like a 15" twist....

They are also supposed to be available in a 64.5 gr. but I couldn't find them on that website.... The heavier, longer bullet needs about a 9" twist.... The 41.5 gr. bullet took all the top spots in a rainy, windy 100M benchrest competition in the Netherlands today.... so perhaps somebody has figured out how to make a non-waisted pellet work in airguns.... They are reportedly using high subsonic velocities for both bullets....
