I've found them to be amongst the worse pellets for accuracy ever made.
If you shoot them during the day, you can often see that they spiral in mid flight.
I wouldn't waste my time with them, but you might get different results.

yeah they did seem to be pretty poor quality, but i was shooting in the dark so cudnt really tell accuracy yet, they did make a mess of the cans though, so may be ok for close range ratting, would you recommend anything else for ratting, what about Verminpells?
Any flat-headed pellet which gives good accuracy would be the one I choose.
RWS Hobby, Matchpell, Bisley Practice.. they're all worth a try.

well i should have my scope by the weekend, so ill get it on my gun, get it zeroed and then try a few types of pellets through it from 20 yards rested and see the accuracy
I might be able to help you out with some Hobby, but that's all I have in the flat pellet stakes.
Let me know if you want 20 or so to try.

its ok, i'm getting paid soon and i'll pick up a couple of tins of pellets from my local shop and try them out, if i dont like them can always give them away, thanks for the offer though.
always used powerpells.never missed and a clean kill in 22
i have an fac rapid and use bis PC for rats and feral pigeons in barns at 10 to 25 yards their perfect after that they tend to wander a bit. I normally use aa field but they always over penetrate sub 25 yards
I shot a rat the other week with accupels in my garden from a prone position, i thought it hadnt over penetrated until i checked the area afterwards and found the pellet lodged in the fence panel, gone straight through the head and into the fence 5 yards behind
I've found them brilliant below 25yds when fired out of my old .20 evolution. They were horrific beyond 25yds but I found them to be probably the best pellet available for use at short range against birds in the garden, so probably would be my choice for short range Ratting.
It just goes to show really how barrels preffer different pellets, sometimes even out of identical guns.
I was given some Pest Control's by the seller (along with some H&N FTT) when I bought my .20 Evo.
As others have said, I've found them fine for squirrels at 20 yards ish - for anything further it's FTT's.
cheers

used super h point in my fwb sport for years on squirrels as they suited the barrel as any other pelllets in them days were just to tight in the barrel i now use pest control in a .20 theoben for close shots and i was shooting through the ring binder holes in a4 office paper at the weekend at about 20yrds every time thats about the size of a rats eye, you shoot a rat at that range and you could put your little finger in the exit hole [not that you would want to] also they seem to exert alot of energy giving a real clout shocking your intended quarry,saying that i they dont shoot well in owt else ive got
