Rez 4,961 Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Anyone shooting those Barracuda Hunter Extreme? Gonna get some to put through me new 98 I'm not one to stray from the good old dome, but a friend literally pulled his willy out when he told me how good they are. So. Calm day, bit chilly, .177 98, these pellets... all be well and they perform ok, should be good. Give it 20 minutes on paper and I'll no doubt be back with the FTT's. Can't hurt to try though. Can it.... Quote Link to post
charlie caller 3,654 Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 I have been banging on about them for a while, my Brocock absolutely loves them, as did my old HW77, they are still accurate at long range, hit very hard in .177 and I tell you what, I have recovered one or two from various things I have shot,there does appear to be some expansion, not perhaps as much as some would have us believe, but they really do seem to impart a hell of a lot of energy into the animal, body shot woody's literally just fold without a twitch, and the sound when you head shoot squirrels is tremendous, so yes give them a try bud, if your rifle likes them, I think you will be very pleasantly surprised. 1 Quote Link to post

charlie caller 3,654 Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 As many will know I am not a .22 fan, however even I accept some rifles......... hw 99s for example are better in .22, I would be very interested to hear how they perform in .22 if anyone has used them.

villaman 9,983 Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 You need to give AA express a go Rez great in all my .177 guns PCP and spring guns I can send you some over to you if you would like to try them 3 Quote Link to post
mark williams 7,561 Posted February 2, 2017 Report Share Posted February 2, 2017 Rez I listened to Mitch and bought 5000 JSB Exact Express Diablo 7.87 gr, 4.52. Same pellet as AA Express, just different tins. Up to know I have used them through my .177 spring guns only but to great effect. Try them mate, they are extremely fast ( 820 f/sec "ish") hit very hard and superbly accurate. P.S Shhhhhhhhhhhh don`t let Mac know that`s my freezer camo`d up in the background 4 Quote Link to post
