Collection: 5.5mm Pellets

5.5mm Pellets Collection – Reliable .22 Pellets for South African Shooters

Choosing the right 5.5mm pellets is one of the biggest factors that influence accuracy, consistency, and performance, especially for South African shooters who rely on .22 airguns for pest control, backyard shooting, and general target practice. The pellets featured in this collection all serve different purposes, and each one includes practical notes on when and why you’d use it. This makes choosing the right .22 pellet for your rifle far more straightforward.

Unlike lighter 4.5mm options, 5.5mm (also known as .22 caliber pellets) offer heavier impact, better energy transfer, and improved stability at medium distances. Their versatility makes them a favourite among SA owners of break-barrel air rifles, PCP rifles, and even CO₂-powered platforms.

What Makes .22 Pellets the Right Choice?

5.5mm pellets excel where stopping power, accuracy, and energy retention matter. Many shooters prefer 22 pellet options because:

• They carry more mass for stronger knock-down ability
• They perform well in windy South African outdoor conditions
• They are ideal for pest species like rats, pigeons, and invasive birds
• They suit a wide range of rifles including Gamo, Hatsan, Artemis, and Crosman

Whether you're browsing for 5.5mm pellets, 22 caliber pellets, or specific 22 cal pellet profiles, our range is selected to give you reliable, consistent results shot after shot.
