Half plastic half metal pellet's ?

[DSDL-35 1]

My friend gave me a handfull of pellets earlier, he said he was told they shoot like a 177 pellet but with the power of a .22 . The tip is made of metal and the rest is glow in the dark plastic ? what are these pellets designed for ? i've not shot any yet as wanted to know if they will damage my barrell don't know why they would but better safe then sorry.

Same gun as me going to burry a few into the shed, any idea what they do better the ordinary pellets if anything.

Ive read very mixed reviews on these sort of things.

Could be, I think he would be better off using Defiants though, they work!

I have used prometheus over the years and i found the grouping on them very erratic..

I have found all these strange pellets are GREAT if you want to miss at 10 yards + they are the daddies.

Yes they are very simalar to those but glow in the dark, i think they look tacky, i'll bury these into the shed door or should i say through it, and stick to accupell's as they seemed to work well for me.

The Prometheus Defiants are very accurate!

The Prometheus Defiants are very accurate!

 

I've got to buy some pellets as ran out, i'll give these a go as i can do with all the help i can get in the target hitting department lol.

I tried the plastic jobbees and was really unimpressed. Only lead going through my airguns barrels now.

The Defiants are a lead alloy pellet, they fly fast, flat, hit like a Logun Penetrator!

dont they leave plastic in the barrel?

[moxy 617]

Not for me neither, bad grouping and im not convinced they work as they were intended.

 

I had a full blown argument with certain mr swan from the gwct regarding the use of these pellets for despatching mink, using an air pistol at point blank range.

Not only were the gwct promoting the use of these "napier" branded pellets but fair or suitable results were only acheived by the use of an almost obsolete air pistol brand.

 

A novel thing i suppose but IMHO no comparrison to some of the better pellets on the market. Get some tin cans shot
