mine liked bizmags
you only get one life live it to the best of your ability
Mine in .177 gives good groups with JSB Exact 8.44gr 4.53
Good job too.... as they also work well in my TX and my 35![]()
TX200 .177 | HW80SLK .177 | HW35 .177 | HW100 (or 2) .177 | HW77K .177
HW40 | HW44 | HW45 | Diana Mod5 | Webley Premier | Webley Hurricane | Crosman 1377
I now shoot Domed Spitfire pellets after trying all the other brands this is spot on. Mind you i have no choke on my barrel and its the very early HW80 with angled forend. I did shoot Eley wasps but they are no longer available, shame.
RWS slugs interesting, Not HN HP slugs? Any links.
For best accuracy If it's 22 try falcon accuracy plus or JSB Exact RS., 177, JSB exact or AA diablo field.
Plinkerer and Tinkerer
In .22 JSB RS or Falcon AP (one and the same in my rifles).

Dave.
All of my HW springers seem to really like the H&N Field Target Trophy.
If it's .177, try the Trophy, Baracuda 8, Baracuda FT, JSB Exact (plus the Express and RS versions).
If it's .22, try the Trophy, the RWS Superdome and SuperField plus the JSB Exact Jumbo (plus the RS and Express versions).
As above, always a good idea to check the output of the '80.
Enjoy.![]()
