Hi all.
I've done some pellet testing on my new HW99. Rws Superfields grouped best, followed by superdomes. Are the Superfields any good? I googled them & most of the reviews & opinions weren't great.
Does anyone use them with success at hft distances?
Thanks.
Both my 99s' shoot better with JSB RS and Express than they do with any RWS pellet. I'd suggest you give them a try...
I'm no expert but I've been led to believe that they are on the heavy side for springers?
That said, I tried them in .22 in my Lightning GRT, (abt 10 foot pounds at best), and by and large they were okay but with the odd flyer. I had this feeling though that I could get better results with others so i did not buy any more when I ran out. Are RWS ceasing production?, certainly in .177?
I'll stand corrected but I think the late great John Darling used Bisley Superfields in his Rapids ?
They've never really quite "done it" for me though either in PCP's Springers or Rammers.

I have a 99 on loan from ValeBoy and it too loves superfields. I did a bit of pest control a couple months back on seagulls and had no problems at all. I also shot a portion of an HFT course with them and accuracy was good out to 50 yards.. I like them!

I have found them pretty decent, in a fair few older springers. My BSA Scorpion .22" pistol, against all the odds, really seems to like them.
Both 5.51 and 5.52 fields are excellent in some of mine, better than jsb.
G'day,
I find Superfields [.177] inferior to H&N FTTs in my rifles. FTTs give me tight groups; Superfields give much bigger groups. To my surprise though RWS Super H Points [a type of hollow point pellet] shoot really well out of my Anschutz 380 RT rifle and group tightly at about 24 yards.

In my springers RWS Superdomes .177 work really well; been using them for years and years.
For my .22 it seems the RWS Super Fields work better than the .22 Superdomes.
