    A couple of candidates (or usual suspects that everyone quotes):

    JSB exacts 4.52 8.44gn
    H&N FTT

    I've used these in my '95 barrels (the barrels will fit either the 80 or 95) and got good results.

    Most of my Weihrauchs like the Weihrauch pellets or Air Arms however my HW80 doesn't seem to like much at all, but the best results so far have been with H&N Field Target Trophy. Need to do some more testing.
    Shooting Air Rifles is like being a pubic hair on a toilet seat.
    Eventually someone comes a long and P's you off.
    They usually have a PCP

    just tested 7 brands in mine , an HW80K new - ish model .177cal

    rws hobby
    accupel
    bisley mags
    accupel heavy
    h & n
    jsb heavies
    AA 4.52

    All performed well but by far the best was AA 4.52 , I had a 10 shot group less than a 5p piece ( short range 20/22 yards) , the worst I guess were the bisley mags but still ok
