Pellet Testing The S10

[si brown 8,486]

Forgive me but surely the hard point of those pellets is going to aid the pellet go straight through more easily rather than cause more damage once in the target which seems to go against the principle of pellet damage.

 

I do wonder if they would stop a fox with a head shot from my soon to be FAC rapid..................hmmmm

i can see where your coming from phil

ill be using them for crow bashing

safe to say they will do a fox but you'll still have to be at a decent range!

A lot of the shots from my old HW100 with JSB Heavies were pass throughs on rabbits heads.

I found that creating a channel right through was just as effective as a pellet deforming and dumping all of it's energy.

..... There's no more dead than dead

 

I reckon those hornets could kill a fox - they went through brochures and embedded into a breeze block wall

For me though, there's a big question mark over their accuracy. I have always suspected that they may perform better at FAC velocities.

Well I will get some in .22 when I have the gun to try out, it may be quite interesting.

Pm me when your ready Phil - I'll post you a few to try

 

If you don't mind a friendly word of caution though mate - don't risk your FAC on targets that might not be completely legit

Completely agree but not sure what the score would be with old charlie. To be honest though, I think it would be as rare as hens teeth that I would get close enough to even consider a shot, it is more theory than any intention.
