No.. the Thompson Center Hawkins is not really designed for pellets. If you want to shoot pellets get a Firestorm ora Tradition's PA Pellet. Even then they suggest you duplex the load.

The problem you will have is with the design of the rifle you would not get consistant ignition in the breech with pellets. Stick with the loose powder and save a little money at the same time.
