    John, (I'm also in Cork) get my pellets from Geoff Cooney (details below), a bit far away but I'm up that way from time to time.
    Murrays in cork city had some .177 'gammo' when I checked a while back.

    FYI Geoff is the Airgun Coordinator for NTSA,
    Tiernan (Wilkinstown) Ltd
    Wilkinstown Co. Meath

    PM me if you have any further questions.
    Joe.

    Let us know how you get on with this. Some of his prices are very good.
    Did you check the legal side - pellets are unrestricted in most of the EU, with ourselves being a glaring exception - I'd have thought you'd need to send him a copy of your cert at a minimum, and probably and article 7. I'm sure the legal brains here will clear this one up. It would be a pity to have a batch stuck in Portlaoise with the local garda knocking on your door!

    i am importing them with the help of my local gun dealer.the pellets are being sent to him ,he is also dealing with the paperwork for me. i can get a large batch and he can hold them for me. i can get them as i need them and not "store" them myself.
