    Only one I can answer is 6/. the Superfield are, or rather were as I think Bisley pellets are no more, the H&N FT (single T) with a dimple, & were a very good pellet in .20,
    so No you're not delusional.

    Bisley pellets are no more?

    That's what I was told, maybe they meant only the .20 & .25 have been dropped
    Only ones I ever bought were the .20's

    That makes sense. I need to stock up on 20s. They are disappearing fast.

    The Bisley Superfield were made by H&N but they're very different to FTT. They have a pronounced sealing band around the head.

    .20 Superfield have been out of production for a fair while

    If you get on well with JSB exacts, then the premiums are worth it if you do BR and don't want to hand weigh and check all your pellets, they make the difference from a 247 to a 250 score wise, but the increase in accuracy is so small it's unlikely you would notice it anywhere else other than if BR shooting, but it still saves you the work if your into any type of comp.

    #4 for FAC PCP where you want a flatter tajectory, to complete with the 18 grain JSBs. Great weight for a 30 FP PCP.

    #6 in .22 can be good if your barrel likes 'em. Also in .20, a good option there too
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    Note I said FT, single T,
    NOT FTT with two T's

    The FT was around 1gn heavier than the FTT, must be honest I only ever had 1 batch off the bay from Canada, my .20 Rapid MFR loved them, it's not quite as accurate with either FTT or Superfield.

    Geezer,

    The weight consistency of the JSB Premium pellets is much better than the 'bulk-tin' JSBs.

    Have fun

    Best regards
