    Lead Free 177

    I bought some LF pellets in .177 to test last weekend, H&N Barracuda Green, H&N FTT Green and RWS Hyperdome.
    I used my FX typhoon as a test bed which has a Weihrauch barrel on it (rifled, choked).
    All gave satisfactory groups at 25 yards but were like a shotgun at 40 yards.
    I cleaned the barrel thoroughly before I started and lubed the pellets.

    I have the original smooth twist barrel for the Typhoon still, I will try that at some point.
    Has anybody any experience of a smooth twist barrel with lead free pellets?
    Regards
    Dave
