Pellets

[MIKE 18]

What's the best airgun pellet for all round hunting ? I have used bisley pest control in the past but not sure whats best to use with the rapid .............. any ideas chaps ??

[ChrisJones 7,975]

Use a good quality round head pellet. Accupells. Field and Target Trophies. Air Arms Fields... etc.

 

If you're Bisley pellets are working okay through the R7 then stick with them.

for ll rounding i use superdomes... round headed ones... i fin them a decent pellets.

I found that air arm field are a soft pellet.

The top of the tin are good but the last 200 0r so are distorted,resulting in misses.

Ihave started using crossman accupells i find they are more accurate.

acccupells in a 12 ft/lbs gun, or premiers, bisley magnums in an fac weapon.

[Guest rothbury ratter]

headshot with me crosman verminpells at 25yards.

Right on the swede.

Mushed rattys brains about,

Accupels or Premiers are a good place to start, but the best pellet for hunting is the one that is most accurate one in your gun, even the same make and model of gun can like different pellets. You've just gotta try them until you find 'the one' lol.

target trophy are my favourites

pest control pellets are ok for short ranges {18yrds} try powerpell pellets made by crossman for your rapid in none fac but bisleys are the only one to have if you have a fac rifle.. iv had over seven rapids in my day and have tride all the pellets trying to find tha right one and the powerpell pellets give the most power and are spot on ,they really suit the rapid give them a try

Been using Air Arms field up to now, but after so many recommendation's for the Accupell's i bought 500 today at the Welsh Game Fair, not feckin cheap though, £7.00 bucks.

I prefer Logun Penetrators and use them with a Theoben Evolution.

I find that superdomes, FTtrophy, acupells, penetrators and long range golds are the biz.....the long range golds are very good indeed and i have shot an amount of quarry with it....IMHO you should avoid all flat headed types...forget all that "impact" bollocks and go for a proven accurate pellet that fires good in your gun...the key, as always,is accuracy......you can shoot a pigeon up the arse with a .25 cal doing 50 ft/lb and it wil fly away, you hit that same critter dead on in the brain with your little .177 and its gonna be dead as a dodo...just MHO.....but hey, buy the book and read more on the subject!!!!! lolol :11:

I always end up going back to eley wasps as they are reasonably priced and to be honest i dont do enuff shooting to notice any difference between them and more expensive pellets.
