price

good group goes 1/4 plyboard at 25 yds, would buy again. not sure how well they work in a pcp.

Bought these to shoot with a Umarex Octane .177. I was very happy with the results and the copper coating helps keep the lead dust down.

If possible, make an even heavier .177 version. Something around 15 grains would be perfect!

Very accurate and hit hard.

The way it is packaged. Put it in a large screw on tin that holds more rounds

Outstanding accuracy.

Recommend usage with airguns >700fps.

Have a great weekend!

Very clean & Accurate pallets, I like to see that all pallets are in shape and fit the barrel perfectly. Very good performance at the open. Did we mentioned accuracy? 600 pallets from this type were shot prior this review.

Price... well at my country there is one distributor, no surprise that it cost 21.25 US$

I tried and compare many pallets, there are many other good pallets, but this one is definitely my favorite! tested with my extremely powerful .177 break barrel BSA

nice pellet, accurate and dependable, cheap!

none

none.

Heavy pellets are good for hunting and distance shooting, its nice that theyre copper plated nd show what the pellet can be used for on the tin.

Screw on lid and more pellets 200 just isnt enough atleast make it 250.

good for airguns with higher speed because of the weight.

Attractive looking and clean pellets.

I don't know what would need to be changed to fix my issue. See below.

These are great pellets out of my Ruger Air Magnum and Hatsan 95 for birds and chipmunks but not for squirrels. Everytime I shoot a squirrel with these you can hear the powerful impact on the flesh (slapping noise) however the squirrel usually falls out of the tree and then runs away.. I'm truly confused about this because with a 4 dollar tin of Crossman Destroyers I was dropping squirrels left and right. None of them were able to scurry away. I'm disappointed because I had high hopes for these pellets against these tree rats.

Looks good, no lead, powerful, but I think it's designed for the rifle, it's jammed in my Beretta 92, unfortunately

Nothing, awesome pellets for the rifle

Co2 is not powerful enough for this pellets.

This is the most accurate pellet I have yet to find for my Nitro Venom breakbarrel. If you have a Nitro Venom or any other Crosman breakbarrel then you owe it to yourself to try these out. Every single pellet fit the breech just right without sorting.

I really liked the idea of only spending $6.50 to try a couple hundred pellets out. The only problem is now that I like them so much, I wish they were offered in tins of 500 or even 1000.

These pellets do shoot about 60fps slower than the regular kodiaks which weigh more. Might be the copper coating?? I also noticed that they do not deform as much as a pure lead pellet but something I can live with because the accuracy is excellent.

Copper plated pellets look nice, very uniform and no damaged skirts

300 per tin like the rest of them. Also these chrony slower in all my guns than their unplated counterpart which is .5 grain heavier. Guess copper doesn't self lubricate as well as lead

60 fps slower than 10.65 grain in my Quest, about 30 slower from my 397, that's all I can remember offhand. I rated these low because less for the money and for being a lighter and slower projectile

I love copper coated pellets, clean, uniform, no bent skirts,quality all the way.

Nothing!!!

Very good hunting pellet, accurate, hard-hitting pellet. H&N excellence all the way. Pyramyd Air has the best selection of all the web sites I have found.

The plating on them.

Nothing.

These pellets shoot really nice but fot the price shoot the HN Baracuda's. You get more for the money.

The pellet in and of itself is good. definitely deliver the energy downrange. copper plating keeps my hands clean. they always catch a newbies eye.

The head makes a bit too tight of a fit in my 350 magnum's breech. They dirty the bore pretty fast because of the tight fit.

when I received these pellets for the first time, I opened the tin and was examining them for quality. Then I noticed something that made my heart practically stop....THEY WERE MIXED WITH ANOTHER TYPE OF PELLET!!! after further examination of both tins I ordered and counting, ~50 out of the 200 pellets in each tin were Baracuda Power, the rest were Field Target Trophy Power. I called customer service and they sent me two new tins. Same thing happened. I've given up on these pellets for now until who ever is packaging them can get their act together. and no I didn't mix them. I looked at them right after I had removed the green tape on the tin.

Everything

Nothing

Excellent for substantial power air guns.

The copper coating makes the pellet feel clean which is why the grouping is as tight as the best out there. I can accomplish nickel sized groupings at 25 yds.

Maybe a better price.

I am using a Crosman titan GP NPSS I ordered from Pyramyd Air. You guys rock.

Beautifully manufactured plated pellets! Like other H&N plated bullets, they fit the bore of my RWS Diana 34 very well and I've not found a more accurate pellet in this rifle.

Yup--I'd like a screw-on lid too! Also the tape on the lid is harder to remove than most. A heat gun helps!

My 12-groove long barreled 34 is VERY pellet picky! Only 5 of 26 moderately priced pellets that I've tested will regularly shoot into the same hole from my 7-yard basement range bench rest. This pellet is one of the 5! I'm looking forward to testing it and hunting with it at greater range. I suspect that I'll use the H&N Power pellet for longer range shots and superior penetration and the Baracuda Hunter when I want expansion. The H&N Hunter is also one of the "5" same-holers that I've found in my testing. My other Diana 34 "same-holers" are the RWS Diabolo Basic, Crosman Premier Ultra Mag Heavy, and the Crosman Premier Super Match.

Good weight good for close range hunting.

Loose the copper coating,better tin,quality control,some fit loose=fliers.

not as accurate as the reg.barricudas.

One of the best shooting pellets in my Diana 34 Pro Compact.

They're a bit on the expensive side, but worth it.

If you're testing pellets in your air rifle, give them a shot.

Uniformity was excellent. Hit very hard and penetrate deep. Very good long range pellet

the price. they cost to much

Best penetrating pellet I've used from H&N. I can shoot these out past 100yard accurately
