Wadcutters is a heavier pellet better for a IZH-M46 or a lighter on, I would think a heavier one ??????

Use (light) 7grain RWS Basic.

I agree with Rover. RWS Basic pellets shoot very nicely from my 46m, and for that matter they get along perfectly with my Pardini K10, seemingly shooting about the same as Pardini Linea Training pellets as there is no difference in my scoring between them. I've shot 5,000 of the Linea now and have gone back to Basics as they cost me about $3/tin less locally.

The "Basics" shoot fine, however my IZZY likes the heavier pellets. Try a tin of each and see which yours likes.

How can you tell?

Try also the JSB Match 4.51mm, 7.3 grains (green lid).

They are the best pellets I have ever found and suit most SSP, PCP and CO2 air pistols.

Their soft lead somehow helps in accuracy. We have shot the JSB green lid next to H&N Finale Match and RWS R10 pistol at the Club and have found the JSB to be the most consistent producing no flyers.

They are far better than either the RWS Meisters or the Club, or the Basic lines.

In my personal pellet testing, the JSB Green produced the best accuracy of all pellets tested in three different guns and two pellet lots.

But, I use the RWS Basic because they are one third the price of the JSB and have no noticeable difference in accuracy. Either pellet will deeply cut the inner ten ring, which is more than I can say.

Also in my personal testing, light pellets were more accurate than heavier pellets (not by much).

You can do a search and find out all this (I posted all the tests) here on TT.
