Page 5 - H&N Baracuda .177, .177 Reviews

Good, hard hitting pellet. Very accurate at 20 yards. Well made, with no visible manufacturing marks of defects.

Some size and velocity variances. Most pellets fit pretty tight into the breech of my Air Arms TX200, but about 1 in 10 just falls in. I also get significant velocity variances, with average of 840 FPS, but extreme spread of 73 FPS and a standard deviation of 21 FPS. This variance impacts long range accuracy and consistency.

Fits tighter in my Air Arms TX 200 than other pellets, but shoots good groups at 20 yards. If it were not for the velocity variances, this would be my #1 pellet choice. Will be ordering the match grade to see if they are more consistent.

Very clean pellet well formed and holds excellent groups at 30 plus yards. Is the best pellet I have shot to date in my Beeman R2

nothing

Started using these in my older Hunter 220. A diet of these makes the 220 very consistant and accurate over lighter pellets. Using original FO sights you can shoot this gun with confidence.

Definately try these in your .177 gun. It may surprise you.

No graphite, great wind resistance, pellets look almost polished to a finish

The lid. You could use the old chewing gum and liquorice trick and get this lid off. There is no friction between the lid and the can

Accurate as hell out of my Quest with Tarantula spring, shooting them in the lower mid 800's. Some fit just a bit loose, but most push in with the same force

Using my GAMO 440 hunter, at 25 yards i can cover a 5 shot pattern with a quarter.

Clean. Nicely formed. Extremely accurate. Excellent penetration.

Nothing.

The only airgun I own is a Daisy 880 Powerline. According to my CED M2 Chronograph they average 560 fps at 10 pumps. 10 shot groups from an honest 15 yards were consistently at or under 1/2". Rarely would a group open up to half and inch, pretty sure it was my fault when they did. 10 shot groups of 1/4" - 3/8" were common, bullet center to bullet center. It's unusual to not be able to cover a 10 shot group from my gun with a dime. The only pellet I've found that out penetrates these are the 13.0gr Big Boy Heavy-Weights. The 15.8gr Big Boy Seniors penetrated equally in my testing. For some reason Pyramyd Air is selling these as 10.20gr pellets. Right on the pellet tin it says 10.65gr. I don't have a scale so I'm not sure who I should believe.

Super Accurate

Nothing, other than maybe quality control, you get a couple where the edges are a little bent but it doesnt seem to affect the accuracy.

Best pellet I have found for my Gamo Hunter Sport, nothing shoots nearly as accurate of with as much knock down.

pellets fit nice and snug in the chamber, accuracy was great, very consistant.

great pellet keep them coming

great hunting and long distance pellet.good penitration.pretty accurate.

screw top lid

great pellet for hunting.killed a crow at 80 yards no problem.dead before it hit the ground.

These pellets group the best of any I have tried in my Gamo Whisper. I guess the weight works well at the fps generated. They grouped consistently well at 10 (dime size), 20 (nickel size), and 30 yards (quarter size). I am looking forward to some small game hunting while walking through the woods.

It would be nice if the container had a screw on lid. I tape the tin back together after I open it, but the screw on lid mightier be nice.

Very uniform without damaged skirts. Best grouping pellets for both my Beeman R9 and AA TX200.

Good Price and Quality.

None

This product is the best high-power gun. I have Benjamin NP Trail 1500. Other pellets are too light for this gun.

Tight groups at 10 meters with my RWS 34. Very good consistensy. Fits tight on the barrel and very clean.

Screw on lid and foam protector inside.

Heavy hitting, consistant, very uniform and well-made

not very accurite

not very accurite

These were fairly accurate in my Talon SS on high pressure air. I did not try them on CO2. I marked them as 4 stars because even though they are fairly accurate they are not the most accurate for my rifle. However, they may be in yours. You should know by now how gun specific a pellet can be. Give them a try.

Make the pellets weigh what's printed on the tin or vice-versa.

These pellets are advertised as 10.65gr but in the tin I got they weighed 10.0-10.2gr. These lower weights are confirmed by PA.

I gave these only one star for size/shape because these pellets are advertised as 10.6gr but in the tin I got they weighed only 10.1-10.3gr. These lower weights are confirmed by PA.

there the same as MAKO"S

should be stated that the wt is 10.3grs and not 10.6grs

if you like mako and baracuda's this is for you.

Nice tight fit in my Gamo! Heavy and hard hitting. Pushed one of these and a crossman destroyer (i use these for waste shooting) through my barrel with a push rod. The resistance was double and rifling showed on the H&N much more pronounced. Good shot!

Coat pellets so they are more finger friendly.

Don't put lead in your mouth?

these are just like the Makos

list the true weight..

weighed over 400 hundred of these and they are no where close to 10,65 !! most were 10.4 gr or less.and they shoot just like the Mako's...

Accurate pellet, hard hitting when used for hunting.

Screw top tin

Very accurate in my TX200. Not quite as accurate as the JSB Heavy's but darn close.
