RWS R10 Match Plus .177 Cal 8.2gr Air Pellet Key Features
- Calibre and Weight: Chambered in .177 cal (4.50mm) with a pellet weight of 8.2gr (0.53g), placing it in the heavier end of the .177 match pellet spectrum for improved stability and cleaner hole punching at 10 metres.
- Classic Diabolo Wadcutter Profile: The flat-head (wadcutter) design cuts clean, clearly defined holes in paper targets, making scoring fast and accurate without ambiguity at the edges of the hole.
- Optoelectronic Inspection: Every pellet is individually inspected using optoelectronic technology to verify dimensional consistency, head diameter uniformity, and surface integrity before leaving the factory.
- Head Diameter: A precise 4.50mm head diameter ensures consistent bore engagement, which is critical for shot-to-shot uniformity and tight group sizes.
- Narrow Manufacturing Tolerances: RWS applies strict tolerances on both length and weight across the entire production run, meaning each pellet in the tin performs as predictably as the last.
- Oxidation Protection: The pellets are treated to resist oxidation, preserving surface quality and lubricity over extended storage without degradation in performance.
- Individual Packaging Design: Pellets are packaged so that no two pellets touch each other within the tin, preventing surface damage and skirt deformation that can compromise accuracy.
- German Manufacture: Produced in Germany, the R10 Match Plus benefits from RWS's long-standing precision manufacturing heritage in match-grade air pellet production.
- 100-Round Tin: Each pack contains 100 pellets, suited to focused practice sessions or competition preparation where quality per round matters more than bulk volume.
- Lead Content: These pellets contain lead. Handle in accordance with safe shooting practices and wash hands thoroughly after use.

What type of shooting are these RWS R10 Match Plus pellets designed for?
These pellets are designed primarily for competitive target shooting, including 10m Biathlon and 10m AC Rifle disciplines.

This careful packaging helps preserve the spotless surface finish and dimensional accuracy that match-grade shooting demands.
What makes the R10 Match Plus more consistent than standard pellets?
RWS produces these pellets to narrow manufacturing tolerances with optoelectronic inspection for absolute consistency in size, weight, and length. This precision process ensures uniform shot groups and reliable performance across every round — qualities that matter most in competitive target shooting where consistency directly affects scores.
