Adam-RunningDog 1 Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 Any body actually used prometheus pellets and if so how they find them, Are they heavy, what are they like at grouping and what do they find the penatration like, i was talking to my father about it and he said he used to swear by the old ones his mate was using his old HW80 tuned to 21ft/lb and he shot a hare at around 60 yards he recons on a train track which he had permission on we are saying a goot 20 years ago and it kept running for about 30 yards and droped tone cold dead he shot it throught the chest. so would be interesting how nowa days prometheus pellets are doing and what you think of them, Thanks Adam Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted October 27, 2008 Report Share Posted October 27, 2008 They are the most useless, overpriced, inaccurate, barrel screwing up, energy wasting pellet, you would ever want to give to your worst enemy..... But it must be 10 years since I last used then as they were so awful.. Just my opinion...things may have changed ..but I think not!! Quote Link to post

Timelord 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 I tryed these things once and found all of what people say above to be true as well as the silly plastic skirts get ripped off in a 12ft/lb rifle Just stick to a good quality lead pellet that your gun prefers Quote Link to post
ponte 222 Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 TOTAL RUBBISH, stick to a good well made lead pellet.. Quote Link to post
Jef66 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Cack The skirts either rip off or get damaged easily and make the accuracy suck. The hardened tips mangle the lands of the rifling in a relatively short amount of rounds, meaning that any pellet fired afterwards..... even quality stuff like AA diablo field etc, will be inaccurate and unpredictable not to mention its expensive as feck Quote Link to post

Guest hyperion Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 the plastic pellets were cr*p, to light to shoot in any kind of wind and so light that they put my TX200 over the legal limit, but the company now makes some very good lead pellets so im told! cheers hyperion Quote Link to post
