domed all round for me

[Guest buster321c]

RWS superdomes suit my S400 and even mossies , would`nt waste time with pointed as they fly all over the place unless each point is accuratly shaped and in the center of the pellet , but still , domes had a better punch and are always best for hunting

i used to yuse pointed but they just fly straight through whatever your shooting as i found out the hard way the pellet went through the rabbits head hit a bit of tin roofing sheet ricoched off and hit me in the shoulder it only left a bruise but it hurt at the time

now i use domed pellets but i carnt se a change in accuracy like other people say (from changing pellets) i didnt need to re zero my sights to be honest

As everyone is saying", Domed, we're all domed". As for practice? Obviously you should practice and set your sights up with the same pellet you are going to use for work.

My S200 likes RWS Superdomes aswell .

 

Cheap enough when u buy 5000 about £4.50 a tin i think

domed,

forget all the others apart from maybe flatheads for close range, 15 yds ish

Well I always prefered flatheads or super h when i was shooting .177 which was over the legal limit as otherwise it wasn't getting clean kills. But that is specific to my air rifle at the time. Horses for courses

That must be one powerful air rifle you got there.

Flippen 'ek..don't often see that sort of agreement...but I go along with it too Domed for Hunting and practice...you MUST use the same, they will fly differently if not and any difference in cost is a false economy!
