I love the Hobby. I've used them since about 1978 and they've always delivered, especially for shorter range use and ratting. However, they're much more than that......I use them exclusively in my old, beaten-up BSA Supersport and they shine, even at longer ranges. And I've witnessed two fine chaps picking off little duck silhouette targets at Boinger Bash events very effectively at 75 yards. If your barrel likes them, use them with confidence.
