I think the 'man in your archery club' is pulling your chain. Either that or he's got more B.S. in him than a Big Mac! my thought exactly a 100 yrd air rifle even at FAC seems impossible and bit pointless...get a rimfire. i've heard of those big calibre air rifles in america they use for bison and stuff but why bother. i've been asked to sort out a few cormrants on the fishery and i have to use non toxic, currently im using the cheapest non toxic stuff in my old baikl (my english barrels would get shredded i would think) but thought an air rifle with non toxic from a hide and baaited up would be good with head shot so would be interested in what the best/most accurate lead replacement pellets are...if any Quote Link to post

jackinbox99 41 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 I tried some of these and they were rubbish in my air rifle compared to the .22 spitfires i normally use. Terrible. Quote Link to post
fin and fur 2 Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) i tried them in my TX200 a few years back and they were all over the place! cheers hyperion i could well believe that, i think thats probably due to the fact that the pellets are pointed in profile instead of domed in my experience pointed pellets do nothing for accuracy does anyone know (or have any suggestions) why a manufacturer would want to copper coat a pellet ? does it offer some significant improvement in pellet performance ? lead on its own has good anti-frictional properties but is copper superior to lead in this respect ? or is it just a marketing gimmick all the best fin and fur Edited January 22, 2009 by fin and fur Quote Link to post
