Heck, I'll get me some, there is no other source of pellets.
Even the usual scalpers have run out of it.

That's a quite a import.

And you should be set with your stock for the next few years.

Looks like some one is moving into competition grade shooting :)

Hi Shiv, I am also planning to get H&N through my cousin who is visiting Germany this month. Could you please let me know why you had to apply for police permit in Hamburg and if its necessary for all pellet purchases. And did you have to show your club id card to at the port of entry. I am asking this because my cousin doesn't have club membership and I am planning to get 20 tins of H&N.

@gypsy - The Air Gun Shop from whom i bought the pellet said that I will be getting a refund of Sales tax from the Airport Customs guys so had to inform them.....my MIL who is a lawyer in Germany told me to also inform the Airport police and get a permit....(its more of informing than permit)....they just had a look at the pellets and laughed when I asked for a permit.......said its alright.....in Cochin... no one even check!( but I had a personal letter from the DC Kochi Customs just in case) :wink:

I also ordered via post DHL from Germany.......RSW Diablos Basic 10 tins and R 10, 10 tins and H&N Match 5 tins, Few other things also during Dec and had it delivered to my house......without any prob...Customs in Kochi cleared it even without asking for any documents. :D

Please update us with the new import policy of pellet. Can a non member of shooting club brings pellet along with him from abroad.
