Snowpeak Wadcutter 5 5mm Pellets

The Snowpeak Wadcutter 5 5mm Pellets are a reliable and affordable choice for airgun shooters who enjoy target practice, plinking, and short-range shooting. Designed for .22 caliber (5.5mm) air rifles, these pellets deliver consistent accuracy and stable performance, especially at close to medium distances.

Wadcutter pellets are known for their flat head design, which creates clean, round holes on paper targets. This makes them ideal for target shooting, training, and fun backyard practice. The Snowpeak wadcutter shape also helps maintain good balance in flight, ensuring predictable and accurate shot placement.

These pellets weigh approximately 15.9 grains, which is a well-balanced middle weight for .22 caliber airguns. They perform smoothly with most entry-level break barrel air rifles, as well as popular models like the Snowpeak SR1000 and SR1250. While they can reach high velocities in powerful rifles such as the Artemis GR1600W, shooters may prefer a heavier pellet for very high-powered airguns.

Manufactured from high-quality lead, Snowpeak Wadcutter pellets are designed to slightly expand (obturate) when fired. This helps seal the barrel properly, engage the rifling, and improve overall accuracy—even in airguns with smoothbore barrels. Each tin contains 250 pellets, neatly packed to protect them from damage and deformation.

Because of their affordable price and consistent performance, these pellets are often considered a great “cheapie” pellet for everyday shooting, casual practice, and having fun at the range.
