I weighed them with a SHIMADZU UW220H lab scale at my job. This is what I got in grams and cal. to grains. This scale is in closed so air will not effect the total and I tiered it for each pellet.

Gamo Magnum 8.3gr
.503g=7.762gr
.504g=7.777gr
.500g=7.716gr
.500g=7.716gr
.506g=7.808gr
.496g=7.65gr
Gamo Match 7.6gr
.499g=7.700gr
.504g=7.777gr
.501g=7.731gr
.499g=7.700gr
.497g=7.669gr
.499g=7.700gr
Gamo Hunter 8.4gr
.490g=7.561gr
.489g=7.546gr
.486g=7.500gr
.486g=7.500gr
.488g=7.531gr
.492g=7.592gr

I will when I get some

I can do more pellets just let me know and with time I can get some weighed up for more information. I will try some CP,copperheads and RWS Super points in .22 later. My lab Tech. said maybe some batches of pellets will be different in wt. Thats fine but I think it points us in the right direction.

Pro Magnums are 8.2gr. I've seen them advertized from 7.7-8.2gr.

great BC (for a light pellet at least, .28 or so), but you can hardly get them anywhere, and can only buy them with a pellet pouch. Who knows why... It's the finest made pellet they sell.

It may be the finest made pellet that Gamo sells, but....

It doesn't shoot well out of my Gamo Shadow 1000.

That's some serious quality control there

Especially the hunters at a full grain difference. Just shows you can't go on face value with these, not to say FPE calculated off the tin.

What, me worry???

I wonder why....

When you go to buy the Gamo Pro-Magnum tins you can't just buy the tin and forget the little pouch that comes with it. Just another marketing ploy to make you pay more.

Its funny how US gamo products is different from european gamo products, ive never seen any pouch when buying pellets, overhere you buy pro magnums in tins, i dont use them myself, but seen them every time i buy pellets.

I think they're usually $6-$7 for a tin of 500. About the same price

as other gamo pellets, but much cheaper than other brands of pellets
