Indian pellet brands

Post by TooTallDean » Fri Apr 09, 2021 7:15 am

Hello, and Greetings from Canada!

I am writing an article on pellet tin collecting for an airgun magazine, and I noticed that there are many different Indian pellet brands.
So far, it seems the most common brands are Master Shot, and United Shot. (I noticed one box said THE United Shot. Is there a reason that the word THE was all capitals?)

Both Master Shot and United Shot are packaged in small cardboard boxes. I also found several boxes with a similar but not identical look and names.
These brands include: Marshall, Modern, Magna, Marvellous, and Morgan.
Are these "copycat" brands that are hoping to copy the established brands?
I did notice that Master uses a hologram sticker on their box, and a warning to "Beware of duplicates".

Other Indian brands I have seen online are: G. Smith, Captain Shot, Precipell by Precihole, and Invincible One.
No doubt there are others I have missed. What other names you can offer?

Thank you.

Cheers,

Dean

There seems to be a very active Airgun community in India.
And willing to produce your own products. That is good.

I think P10, Precipell FH RH do well in most Indian & imported ARs.

Dear Basu Sahab
Could you please lead me where I could found good performance Indian pellets on cheap? I have recently brought an SDB 35 and I am using United Shot Super Dyna pointed head which have given me excellent 1 inch groups at 15 yards (the measured distance between my balcony and the fence posts across the road) at ₹350 for 500 pellets.
Is there any way I could bulk buy these particular pellets directly from manufacturer? Any contacts?
Is there any other budget pellets you would rate better than this for SDB 35, given your vast experience?
At about 150 pellets per day, it would help to bring down the costs.
Thanking you,
Siddhartha Mahavira
