matt_hooks 188 Posted June 16, 2010 Report Share Posted June 16, 2010 Spotted an ad in "The Field" for these pellets today. I've used the Napier lube before on accupels and got good performance. I was wondering if anyone has tried these pellets? What are they like for performance and accuracy? Are they consistent? I've been using RWS Super H points recently, and they give me single hole groups at 25 yards. Any replacement would have to replicate that! The Napier pellets are marginally more expensive, but if they shoot well then that's not an issue. So any views on them either way before I buy a tin? Quote Link to post

Dont bother mate i along with most other people who have been unfortunate enough to spend £8.00 on that crap have had accuracy problems because they are cheaply made in the few tins i have baught there have been flat heads in a pack of domed and even a .20 cal in a tin of .22 cals Quote Link to post

garfield 23 Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 i bought some a while back in .22 they had sooooo! much extra lead hanging off them as if the mould was leaking and they couldnt be bothered to take off the excess didnt even bother testing for accuracy after i saw them in the tin Quote Link to post
JackReid 35 Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 I've only used their 'Power hunter' ones or something and they were shite. Jack Quote Link to post
matt_hooks 188 Posted June 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 Hmmmm. Just been to the gunshop, and they happened to have a tin of these open. I had a good look, and there didn't seem to be any fouling or swarf. The pellets looked ok. The owner has bunged me the tin for being such a good customer, so I shall pass them through my rifle and see what they do. Quote Link to post
