Stoater 21 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Does anyone use these pellets as hunting ammunition? In my .22 HW100 they seem very accurate indeed at ranges up to 25 yards or so? Do they expand much on impact? Quote Link to post
Rez 4,961 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Great manufacturer... Perhaps shoddy in terms of consistency. Will hit like a bus no doubt... Rats only in my opinion, but if you having good results, sound man. The issue being that if you get your 100 sorted with these... which is fine and easy no doubt, when you get that 38 yard rabbit on shoulder, chances are they may do something different at further ranges. Do some tests. Let me know... I'd like to start using a flat head. Quote Link to post

More encouragement mate if there good in his 100... Then bang on granted, more plinkers like, but who knows... Quote Link to post
treecreeper 1,136 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 hes only plinking went to a range and loved it, but being a springer man and him being small its only thing I have he would be able to shoot without giving him my hw100 ks. but it only does 6.5ftlb so suggested hobbies. I learned to shoot with it but don't remember weights on tins back then Quote Link to post
ratbuster 808 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Out to say 25 meters they're ok, but were intended for target / match shooting. Any further away and accuracy will suffer. Great on rats at shorter ranges, hit like a brick, thanks to the flat head. On the other side, if your rifle likes them give them a try and see from what range they start to lose their accuracy, if that's beyond 40 meters, no problem , stick with them. Otherwise find yourself a nice dome head pellet from one of the proper brands : AA, JSB , H&N Quote Link to post

treecreeper 1,136 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) reckon the pests would agree but a 100 wont teach him how to shoot Edited February 10, 2015 by treecreeper Quote Link to post
