    I always try exacts 4.52 in every new rifle I get.

    My 97k loves them by the way.

    AA Field and FTT are always very good so start with these first.


    Kindest regards

    JSB Express and Falcon Accuracy Plus are hard to separate as by far the best I have tried in mine - but yours may not agree!

    There's a very strong chance that your 97's favourite pellet will be listed above.

    Boxed Crosman Premier also, depending on how many you want to test.

    RWS Superdomes/Superfields are always worth a go as are 'AA Diabolo Fields' which always seem to go well through most rifles...

    JSB Exact Express 4.52 are currently out performing most other pellets in my .177 springers including my HW 97.
