I can't find this review🧐

Seems reviews have to be approved by a mod, before they show, I'm sure it won't be long.

I find it difficult to understand why any shooters should regard these as worth using at 12 ft lb. At 21p a shot compared with say 3p a shot for quality diabolo pellets I really just don't get it.
At FAC power levels the direct comparison with quality-but not 'match'- rounds at say 10p a shot makes me wonder again.
Still each to his/her own but I'll stick with my 25.4 grain JSB in .25 and 15.9 grain JSB in .22 and save myself some cash.

A 5p group at 42yds in a gusting wind, compared to 1.5" for JSB's would be all I can think of,

But then it's like asking why would someone pay £5K for a rolex when a £50 citizen tells the same time

Incidentally I use the same pellets as you.

A 5p group at 42yds in a gusting wind, compared to 1.5" for JSB's would be all I can think of,

and that's exactly what I was looking for when I tested the .177s - it's about the ballistic advantage.

trajectory (especially with .177 at hunting ranges) is easy enough to manage, but wind is a whole other ball game...

Nick, speaks with experience, I have tried zan .177 slugs in my hw100.177 excellent results
but overall costs are too high, I will still use air arms field domed pellets.

At 12ftlbs and in 177 I've tried a few makes. Only type and in my gun collection that worked were mako. But they didn't open up on rats or anything else.
