You mean this one?




That is a Beeman Ram-Jet, which they classify as a 'round nose' pellet. It's available in a .177 and .22 caliber.

What country/region are you in to find a retailer?

no thats not it it looks much different

there is a definate change of colour and material the head is steel but is smaller than the rest of the pellet like a bb 0n the front of a .22cal hollow point so the steel never engages the rifling
but behind the bb is hollow so the pellet has the hard hitting power of steel and the expansion of a hollow point.

Are you sure it was a Beeman pellet? Here's their line-up:

Man- that Crosman Fireball is one ugly pellet:



and at 10.5gr, totally unusable in anything but a mid-range magnum or better!

It doesn't appear to be listed by any of the major airgun vendors yet, and the Crosman site doesn't say if it will be available in .22 caliber- although the website is missing a few of their .22 cal pellet products anyways. Perhaps a phonecall to Crosman is the only way to find out right at the moment(?).

This is what I do,(until Gamo starts selling their .22 Rockets on this side of the world), easy to do, and talk about penetration, using my 2289 @ 30 pump's, I had one of these go through 2 back to back v-8 cans like they were made out of butter.
You may want to try Daisy Power Pellets in .177, I've tried the Crosman FireBalls, and they really suck, I bought a tin from LeBaron's, and promptly returned them, not one, or two, but the whole tin looked like somebody fired each one through ply-wood before they were packaged,,Really awful Q/A.
