Benjamin Single Die Pellets?

[JoeWillie]

Gamo has not made any of the Benjamin Match Grade pellets yet. So any you see were made in NY.

Just pick up a few tins 2 weeks ago and have sampled all the tins. Still excellent in the guns that shot well before.

I ordered 12 tins of the Benjamin 10.5gr Single Die, which with what I have would be about a 5 year supply I reckon. Now the first 12 pack of tins I ordered from PA in Jan 2024 came packed in a box of 12 tins with the die number stamped on the outside box and each pack of pellets stamped with the same die number. The order from March had 12 tins of the Benjamin single die pellets, but they were packed loose (ie: no 12 pack) and no die numbers are stamped anywhere on the packaging or tin. Not sure what to think of that - we'll see when I get a chance to open a tin.

Not sure what to think of that

No longer single die separation, just mass produced and mixed together.

This sounds like the expected sloppy service from the now Gamo owned Benjamin. My rifles shoot really well with the Benjamin Single Die Pellets made here in the USA. When I once again need to buy pellets, I will probably just order one tin and see how they look, shoot and where they are manufactured. Once the dies are shipped to Spain, where the new conglomerate of Gamo, et al are located, I fear that the original quality of the pellets will diminish, such as when the dies wear. Gamo has always been a "big box store" manufacturer with a doubtful service department. Oh well, back to JSB. Orv.
