These are good ol' lead pellets and very good.....but like many before me have said...your particular air rifle will prefer certain pellets over others...the best is to try a few different kinds til you hit on one that your rifle likes....alloy pellets fly much faster because of their light weight..but this oftentimes makes them unstable in flight...also if you are shooting critters a heavier pellet will generally do more damage.

Dont know. I gave them away as gift. All i can say is that i saw a big lump inside from the welding and it was not stainless steel.

I am not 100% but close to it, steel. Magnets stick to them so they are not aluminum.

It does not state on the package anywhere. I would assume that they are. They seem to be made of durable plastic.

Yes, they are made of plastic. I haven't tried them out yet, but they seem solid!

Yes, I believe they are but I cannot recommend them. Because they are aluminum when using them for hook removal the jaws twist and slip off the hook. I would either purchase stainless or get off my wallet next time and look at titanium.

Got mine today---the perches/feed hole pieces are definitely metal. The description states they are metal, too. Very smooth, nicely made, very well finished. But yes, metal.

Yes, they're made out of metal, painted steel, I'd say. Not soft enough to be aluminum.Do you have a bench vise and a punch set? If you do, then you can drift the sites. Just be careful not to let the punch slip!

These seem to be copper. I don't know if it is alloyed with other metals. However they do work well and are of very good weight and length

The pellets are extremely light weight. The weight would likened to wood shavings, since the pellets are compressed shavings/saw dust.

They are definitely comparable to Tetra Pond Pellets. They may even been of a slightly higher quality.

They seem to be made of stainless steel, with a baked enamel coating. I spray them when I use them. I use them for crumpets and English Muffins, and they are terrific.

They are a lead alloy, most likely lead-antimony-tin. You might want to consider the lead-free version, it will travel farther and in my experience and be more accurate. Plus, you won't have to wash the toxic metallic dust off your hands after use.

Yes, they are "magnesium". I use quotation marks because they are not true magnesium rods. They are higher in magnesium content than a ferro rod, which is higher in iron content. These tend to throw blobs of molten magnesium as opposed to a shower of sparks. I wouldn't recommend these if you're main use is going to be lighting an alcohol stove, but they are fine for igniting tinder. One thing...don't expect Exotac or Light My Fire performance from these fire starters. Thy are priced low for a reason. For the price, they are decent. For everyday camping/hiking, they will get the job done, but if my life depended on a fire steel, I would much rather have an Exotac. Hope this helped.

Yes, they are made of solid plastics. Very durable and has a good weight to it.

No. They are made of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer), which is a mixture of a plastic and a rubber polymer.

They seem like they would be. I guess it depends upon the speed of the metal pieces. While I have not done any type of ballistics test on them, the plastic is strong. Mine have weathered multiple lawn mowings and being found and played with by young children (2 and 5). They still work as well as the day I got them.
