    H & N Barracuda hunter pellets

    After reading about thse pellets ,coming on the market in the Airgun World
    magazine I tried 3 shops they had not got them in stock .
    I am a big fan of Barracuda Match and thought I would give these a try ,but could not get a tin.
    So has any one tried these hollowpoints ? given them a go
    I would please like to hear some feed back before I track a tin on line.
    BSA Ultra .177 M/Shot / Daystate Mk4 .177
    course I am over 18 , if I was 18 again I would rejoin !!

    maybe you should put this in an airgun section not a review one.

    I bought a tin Baracuda Hunters .177 a new hollow round head ,
    but could not get them to group using my Daystate mk3 ftr or my
    AirArms S200 .177 30yrds 2" group
    At £6 for a tin of 200 I was disappointed

    as with most new things it takes time for them to become availble as for are they any good ive always found that you have to try them for your self as what might suit one person dose not suit another

    shot 4 tins worth now, more accurate than AA fields for me thru the R10 and my hw100.

    make sure you start with a clean barrel and be aware they weight 10+gr

    big toe

    nice to hear of a barracuda variant specifically for hunting, my hw100 loves the heavies, any chance of running a brief test/review of 5 shot groups out to 45 yards to see if the groups stay tight or let me know where you got em and i will run a review and post the results, all the best neil...
