Tried these before and wasnt keen... but i can lay my hands on an endless supply... so may be worth giving them a second chance....

 

These are the ones... 13mm wide... so what would they be... M6...[BANNED TEXT]...M10?...

 

How do you hold these correctly?.... i take it you put a flat side to the pouch...and hold the 'O' between your fingers?...

 

Lastly.... do they lose accuracy at a certain distance with them being 'flat'?

hex nuts can be surprisingly accurate but i have found that ,compared to round ammo, they are less accurate over longer distances and also loose speed quicker.

penetration is also understanably a lot less than lead

on the plus side most hunting shots are close in and the uneven edges on nuts can have a devastating effect at these ranges,

also if you have a good supply of nuts then you can get in loads of practise .

the way to hold them in the pouch is how you have described.

good luck with them

Hexnuts are excellent at hunting ranges. There's a bit of a curve in their flight when they get out past 30 yards, but until then they fly straight. The blunt force trauma of them is superb and a less than exact shot can still result in a kill.

I use M10's without any additional weight. M.8's are good out of lighter bands and are loads cheaper than M10's.
