H&N Field Target, .22 Reviews

Best tested pellet for my Benjamin Discovery. They pack a wallop on pest English Sparrows and European Starlings off my bird feeder, and very seldom miss the mark.

Nothing.

Try these!

Best pellet in several of my rifles. They are uniform and high quality. I like the different diameters. The 5.55 and 5.56 diameters work best in my HW97 and my Hatsan sprinters.

Make tins of 500 or even 1000 pellets. Put some foam in the tins so the pellets don't rattle around.

These pellets cost twice as much as crosman but I can hit twice as many tiny targets with them. The group size at all ranges is much smaller than most other pellets I have tried.

Closest grouping between this and my other ammo.

Picture shows a nicer finish than the actual matte finish.

My Marauder seems to like these.

Excellent product.

Good product.

Good pellets for plinking

If you want a good pellet for plinking, this are very good option.

Large diameter.

Cost?

I bought these for my Webleys, which are 5.6 mm. I am hoping these 5.55 mm pellets will work well in them.

The consistency and accuracy of these pellets and super packaging of them for shipping.

Working well in Crosman Diamondback SBD .22; accuracy as good as it gets with open sights (not tried with scope yet), mean distance 0.8 to 1.2 mil.

They are very precise and my Gamo Maxxim has done very well.

I am trying my first tin of these, (500 count) in my GAMO Swarm Fusion 10x gen2 and they seem very accurate at 60 yards. I got the 5.55mm size .22 cal.

Nothing, except to include more size detail on the packaging and in the online descriptions of this and all ammo. The picture on the can lid is a little bit deceiving when you see the overall length versus looking at the actual pellet.

I had a lot of trouble loading these in the GAMO10x gen2 magazines due to the pellet being shorter than what I usually use. Maybe a smaller diameter like 5.53 might have been easier to load into the magazines, but with these 5.55mm versions I had to use a small tool to push each pellet deep enough into the Magazine cavities instead of just using my finger like I do with longer pellets. These H&N Field Target Trophy .22 Cal, 14.66 Grain 5.55mm pellets are only 6.61mm long, where as pellets like the H&N Baracuda .22 Cal, 21.4 Grain 5.5mm pellets are 8.4mm long and load without the need of a tool just to use them in the GAMO Magazines. Other than this little issue they shoot great but may be more suited for single shot use.

These come in different diameters so you can match them to your particular rifle or pistol. When you order using the buy 3 and get one free option they're reasonably priced.

Nothing

Make sure you select the right diameter when ordering or order a mix of sizes to find which works best.

Shoot well in my oversized barrel on Benjamin marauder .22.

Price could be a little lower.

Try these in any air gun with possible oversized barrel bore in .22

My gun would not shoot accurately until I discovered the availability of various head sizes. I slugged my barrel and it came out 5.55 to 5.56. These are the only pellets my Crosman Optimus can shoot accurately. I bought a Pellet Gage and now measure every tin of these I buy. 90% are 5.55 to 5.57. They pop in just right, fill the bore as needed and give me far better accuracy than this little Crosman's price tag would indicate.

I wouldn't change a thing except maybe have all of them measure 5.55 and up. I wish other manufacturers were serious about head size.

Buy a Pellet Gage, slug your barrel. If you don't fill the bore you can't expect accuracy. It's all a guessing game unless you nail down as many variables as you can.

Consistency

Nothing

Very accurate.

Nothing

Shooting rest is very important

Nothing. I had a batch of these once before that I bought from Amazon and they were very accurate in my Gamo Swarm Maxxim at 70 yards. This batch however is absolutely garbage. At 20 yards, I am hitting all around 6+ inches on all sides. I thought wow, my scope or barrel was jacked. I tried a few other brands along with my older batch of these and was hitting within a dime size area at 20 yards.

Quality control.

Consistent and accurate pellets.

Nothing.

These are the pellets that my Weihrauch HW95 favors. According to seasoned Weihrauch enthusiasts, newer Weihrauch .22 barrels have a large bore size. Because of this, pellets with larger head diameters commonly shoot best. That has definitely been the case with my HW95. It shoots the 5.53 and 5.54 mm heads okay, but it really likes these 5.55s. I'm glad H&N offers the Field Target Trophy pellet in several different head sizes.
