Further Product Details
Each tin of Gamo Pellets 5.5mm Rockets contains 100 precision-formed pellets, ensuring consistent sizing and reliable performance. These pellets are compatible with most .22 caliber air rifles and pistols, making them a versatile choice for shooters who require both accuracy and penetration for small game or pest control. The steel-tipped design is particularly effective for targets requiring deeper impact, while the lead skirt ensures proper sealing and engagement with rifled barrels.
For optimal results, use these pellets in airguns meeting or exceeding the recommended minimum energy of 14 joules. As with all airgun ammunition, regular barrel cleaning is advised to maintain accuracy and prevent lead build-up. In South Africa, airgun pellets are generally unrestricted for purchase and use, but users should always comply with local laws regarding airgun operation and hunting. Gamo products are manufactured to high quality standards, and while specific warranty terms may vary, the brand is recognized for its commitment to reliable performance. Always store pellets in their original sealed tin to protect against moisture and contamination.
