DEAN R 26 Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 hi all as some may already know i got a bsa r10 mk2 off of the big man problem is its in 22 flavor and am not at all used to 22 i prefer 177 . the pellets i got with the gun recomended by the gunshop are h&n barracuda match 21.30 gr wich are heavy and bisley magnums wich doesent give a weight on the tin . ive done some target practice with them both and even though hold alot of energy drop off to quickly for my liking or is this the norm with 22 ? in my 177 air rifles i only use daystate li or falcon accuracy plus and cant fault them . today i bought some daystate li in 22 and cant fault the speed energy and tradgectory and the accuracy was outstanding . this test was done at arund 25-30 yards so am wondering if they will fly off at distance greater than that ? the li pellets weigh 14.6 gr what pellets out of the 3 i have would you take out on a lamping session tonight thanks dean Quote Link to post

Longers7 720 Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 I use diablo field's in my .22 r10 mate, which are good, r10's can be pellet fussy tho. Quote Link to post
the big chief 3,099 Posted December 28, 2013 Report Share Posted December 28, 2013 My r10 shoots awesome with falcon accuracy plus Quote Link to post
DEAN R 26 Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 hi all just got back only had a few hours . i went with the daystate li and was perfect !!! was very windy high up where i was so didnt get as many shots off as i wanted . there was plenty of rabbits around but was very skittish might have had something to do with my mates crap lamp he insisted on taking but all in all came away with 2 big bunnies im very happy with the r10 and the caliber now i have found some decent pellets that the rifle seems to like. going to put around 50-60 pellets through tommorrow at some targets see how she pans out cheers dean Quote Link to post
reaper1064 285 Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Same as The Gaffer, Falcon, every BSA I have owned do great with them. Don't be put off by the weight as they retain their energy down range, nothing hit by them has had cause to complain, also Defiants with the larger heads, Quote Link to post
