Do not waste good pellets on a IHP.
If you insist on getting the pellets please give your friend custom declaration documents so that at customss they do not trouble him.

Also you can import them easily

Last week my friend brought 4 tins of RWS Diaboloo Basic177 Cal 7.0 Grains Wadcutter from pyramydair.com for me without any problem at Mumbai airport

Due to rainy season I oiled & pack my gun to protect it from rusting but
Soon I will try it with my IHP & let you know the result

Dear Pratik, Methinks 7 grains might be a tad lighter for IHP 35. Anyway, try match grade pellets from RWS/ H&N specifically for rifles. Incidentally, my N25 responds OK and similar to Mastershot, gsmith Amateurs/ Competition/ P-10, Diana-/ Dyna- shot but when I put in RWS R-10 they simply "flew". So I would tend to agree with gverma. You also need to see if the pellets leave behind lead powder residue inside the barrel as that would make your shots go erratic after a while. Some of the pellets have feedback on the pyramid air site itself. Good luck.

Thanks for your suggestion airgun_novice
I read the review of the RWS Diabolo Basic .177 Cal, 7.0 Grains it is recommended for low to medium power air rifle & good for 10 M & up to 30 Yards it cost me around Rs.1500/- for 4 tins including courier charges from pyramydair to my friends location.Almost same if I buy master shot from Aimco Enterprise so I decided to give one try

My IHP gives me around 630 FPS with Diana Shot Pellets I don’t know the weight of it but it is smaller then Mastershot whose weight is 8.2 grains

Please see the Pic for all Pellets form left to right
1) RWS Diabolo Basic .177 Cal, 7.0 Grains
2) Mastershot Wads 8.2 grains
3) Diana Shot Flat head No. 1

The last two on right side I don’t know the make but they are imported & don’t fit in my IHP
