The pellet thread!

[short-carabine]

Good idea this...

My Ratty is more than happy with Crosman HPs in .22 at 14.3gr and hates RWS. Seem to get a perfect barrel fit with the CHPs, oddly enuf!

The 850 works best with RWS SHP or Superfields. The SHP work really well.

Both utterly hate TAC2- bought a few to test out as they looked "interesting"-I know they aren't really a CO2 pellet, but worth a try. Hopeless FPS/Ft Lb in the Ratty, and did not agree with the 850's bolt action at all.

The S&W 586, well Laza's usually, but for plinking, a CHP in .177 does the job very nicely.

.177 or for those who are technically superior to your average shooter 4.51 OR 4.52 as it was pointed out to me in a certain shop I went in to for pellets
Barracuda match
For both my air rifles

[shoota]

all i know is avoid .22 Webley Hustler needle points, far too soft for my liking

Hi just thought I'd add to this post, I haven't seen weihrauch F&T Pellets mentioned. I bought a tin from Tonys camo and they're fantastic in my HW97K, Haven't seem them for sale anywere else.Only £4 for 200.
RWS Superfield are also very good,
My choice of hunting pellet is also RWS Super H Point.
Just purchased some Prometheus to give them a bash, you don't know until you've tried eh? Lot of poor reviews though
Might try the Weihrauch Magnums next, has anybody tried them?

Have recently done a bit of testing with 177 Daystate and Exact pellets and an airwolf. The exact group more consistently with my rifle at 35yards.

As new to airguns, is it down to the make and type of rifle, or the individual gun, on the whole ?

[HW90Guy]

HW90k in .177:

Bisley Magnums when FAC
RWS Superfields when 12ftlb

S200 .22:

AA Fields 5.52 (or any of these type i.e. Daystate FT and JSB Exact)
