I got a box of H&N Diabolo 5.5mm pellets from a friend to shoot from a diana 35 I got while in India (here for another week) but the damn things are a shade too thick, they don't chamber. What's an easily available brand that will chamber and shoot decently?

It's just for plinking, don't need match grade stuff, just decent accuracy. Tried some made by "captain" that a neighbor gave me, those were pretty terrible, not one well formed pellet in the box, were coming out all squished.

PS: I'm in Mhow, MP. So suggest something you'd think I'd get around here (Indore?)

Thanks,
BJL

I dont think you will find 5.5mm pellets of imported make easily.............................since 5.5mm is not used in competetions you will not find imported make 5.5mm pellets.............Indian has started making good quality.177 match pellets.....................since they can be used in competetions

try gunshops in Indore (Indore Bandook Ghar)

Gsmith pellets are considered to be the best among Indian made ones.
