They might do a lot better if washed to get rid of the inevitable junk, ie: dirt, lead chips, etc. You could do a search on washing pellets.
Si Pittaway (Vermin Hunters) did one on washing pellets some time back.

They are good pellets. Any mid-speed gun that don't like them would be a very picky gun and not worth having IMO opinion. Amount I shoot and only in-house I shoot minimum of 500 per week. I have shot allot of them the past couple years but have gone to a lighter pellet for speed in three of my rifles that shot Grizzly's very good. Only shoot one gun with them now. New ones I shoot are $5 for 500 regular priced but have to pay for shipping. Thanks for head up as I will be by PA tomorrow and I will pickup 10. CHEERS!

Last time when I dropped by PA while waiting for my daughter's piano course, I picked up some for each calibers and shapes to give them a try...

I have some tight barrel guns, so I can tell the size of the Grizzly pellets are not very consistent. But over all they shoot surprisingly well. Maybe you won't bring them to shoot Olympic, but they are more than enough for indoor pop can funs~ At least I will buy the Grizzly instead of Crosmans...

I’ve definitity been stocking up on ‘wadcutters’ and yes they are very dirty. I just washed 2500 pellets this morning and let’s just say a lot of nasty was left in the soap water and in my dry rags. Now I’m just debating if I should give them just a bit of lube.
