Page 2 - H&N Baracuda .177, .177 Reviews

New to air gunning and this was recommended by Pyramid Air Staff. Shoots very well in my rifle, impressed with the accuracy for the cost.

Outstanding pellets. Super clean and consistent from pellet to pellet

Change nothing (well cheaper would be good)

almost as good in my stormrider and BSA R10 as the "match" grade.

If you have any of the above guns, try them. Great grouping out to at least 40 yards.

These pellets are pretty uniform. They shoot very well in my .177 Mako.

Very clean, uniform shape pellet. Very accurate out of my Walther Terrus and my new LGU. .30 in c to c at 28 yrds from the LGU

Would like to see screw top lid and qty of 500. I have absolutely no performance complaints.

Only found one skirt deformed out of three tins so far. Shot a soft drink can at 80 yrds with four dot hold up. Great pellet!

Uniform shape and weight. Very accurate out of my Walther LGU

Offer in qtys of 500 like H N Barracuda

Extremely accurate out of Walther LGU. .30 groups at 28 yrds. So far targets out to 50 yrds are hit every shot. H N/Beeman makes great pellets!

Everything. Accurate, hard hitting out of Walther Terrus. Avgs 810 fps .30 c-c @28 yrds.

Would be nice if tin had 500

Virtually same pellet as H-N Barracuda. This is a very good pellet also but due to greater quantity in tin I feel the Barracuda is a better value.

Consistency

More per tin.

Very accurate in our Daystate Regal.

Most accurate and consistent pellets I've found for my Beeman R9. Always produces one hole at 10 meters off a bench, usually just slighly larger than 4.5mm. Shoots a tad lower than lighter pellets. Fits slightly more snugly in the barrel than other 4.5mm pellets.

I wish they made a similar pellet in this weight in a wadcutter design. The domed head of these pellets rips target paper messily.

Shipped wrapped in foam and no dents in tins or pellets.Great for brake barrel guns.

This heavy .177 pellet was chosen because of the dome head and it is within my pellet weight preference. It will be used primarily when shooting my Ruger Air Magnum, for which a pellet of that weight I find to have the performance I am looking for. It is a perfect match.

Nothing.

I reviewed this pellet by shooting it thru four of my .177 air rifles, all of them are spring piston. A five shot string was conducted and chronographed over my Prochrono Digital for each shot. The target was a 2" Birchwood/Casey on a 12"x18" box, 70 feet away. The Ruger Air Magnum produced a five shot average of 982 fps with a high of 992 fps, a low of 972 fps. The Gam Big Cat 1250 produced an average of 707 fps with a high of 713 fps and a low of 700 fps. The Gamo Hunter "220" averaged 693 fps with a high of 703 fps and a low of 689 fps. The Beeman RS2 Silver Kodiak averaged 746 fps with a high of 749 fps and a low of 742 fps. I was able to hit that two inch target with good results. This pellet, no doubt, is more devastating shot thru the Ruger Air Magnum, compared to rifles of less fps capabilities.

Very consistent; pleased with performance.

Very accurate and hard hitting out of my Walther Terrus. 1/4" group at ten meters. Try a tin you may like them.

Nothing

It makes a big difference in accuracy by the pellet used in your air rifle. My Walther Terrus loves these pellets along with JSB. But the Terrus hates RWS domes and pointed (fliers all over) !

Great Quality, 96% of the Skirts are in perfect form. Accurate!

Offer different Grain weights.

Heavier Pellet, so your FPS decreases, if your shooting Pest under 45 yards with a Springer or Gas Ram than this Pellet is Awesome. If you have PCP like Condor, which I do own, than these are deadly up 80 yards.

Very consistent in weight and head size. I weighted and measured the head size on 600 Kodiak pellets. All weighted between 10.4 and 10.6 grains. 98% of the head sizes were 4.51 to 4.53. In comparison I did the same thing with JSB 10.3's and head sizes ranged from 4.45 to 4.51. Weights were from 9.8 to 10.8 grain. The Kodiaks were a lot more consistent.

As others have stated TWIST ON TOP. I hate having to clean up pellets if I forget to tape the lid.

I have an airwolf that is pellet picky and these Kodiak's shoot best. The H+N Match 10.65 in the 4.52 heads shoot 2nd best. Most of the head sizes of the H+N Match 4.52's range from 4.48 to 4.51.

1% of the Kodiak's had bent skirts or were damaged. Beeman sells the most consistent pellets with the least amount of damaged pellets per tin. Excellent quality control.

I am fast becoming a fan of H&N pellets and the only thing that i didn't like is they weren't accurate for me and the non screw lid tin, in my Benjamin Regal .177

Screw Top can needed

Like I wrote this is mhy experience with my air rifle youe results may be different as this is a good quality pellet in my estimation..

Nicely formed and very consistent shape. They have great knock down power.

You really need a powerful gun to shoot these well.

Shoots well in all my spring guns.

Price

Little pricey, but you get what you pay for.....

I like these pellets for all around use. They are not too pricey and have a good overall performance.

nothing

as with everything the price would be nice if it was lower.

Very accurate, I use them in my Walther 1250 Dominator .177 cal, get tight groups at 25 yards, .50 inch groups, tried others and the result were not as good, don't waste time and money, get these for your Walther.

nothing

buy these for a Walther 1250 Dominator .177 cal, they work the best.
