Page 4 - H&N Baracuda Hunter, .177 Reviews

Clean, uniform, no bent skirts not one! Very nice weight. Very good accuracy, yes a five star pellet, great H&N quality! I like these better than the Crosman destroyers I think they expand better, but thats just me.

Just more for the money, still a good buy, and I will buy more.

These are a sure kill for the rats, ground rats and tree rats, very disruptive effect on the rodents, I love it! ( I hate rats! ) Buy'em you will like'em!

improved my groups a lot @ 25 yards. 8 pump velocity over the crony was 670fps dont know if thats good or bad as I have nothing to compare to. 25 yards 5 pumps nice half inch group--thats good for me. just kneeling and useing a large package of paper towels as a rest. Thats what was handy at the time

nothing

these seem to fit tight in my 397 chamber, but doesnt seem to affect accuracy....o

they look realy well made

they just not accurate in my Dynamax . they not that expensive but realy poor accuracy in my gun also being a hollowpoint i thought that they would expand but when i shoot into wood they penetrate just as deep into the wood as my other 10.5gr pellets which tells me that the pellet is not expanding on impact.They should make the pellet out of softer lead so that it can expand more .

i wish i could say i liked these but ive only shot a few of them then just left them because they just did not perform mabe other people had better results but mine were poor.

Good on small game.

more in tin.

I recently switched to eun jins 16.1 grain for hunting. the same shots with those pelles i took with the hunters and eun jins failed. I drop squirrels with body shots from this pellet consistantly, you would think a larger pellet would do better, but it doesnt.

Excellent stopping power and consistent accuracy from a variety of .177 rifles.

As others have mentioned, a screw-top tin would be nice at this price level.

Expensive by comparison to other pellets. But still, at less than 4 cents a shot, a man used to firearm ammo prices these days can't really complain.

They shot very good for a hollow point out of a NPXL 1500. 25yds I was getting 3/8" groups and my NPXL hasn't even been broken in yet.

H&N needs to put more in per tin.

Don't base a bad review on pellets. Because what may be bad for you could possibly be the best for another person with the same rifle.

Well made, good weight, accurate, no damage, consistant with good expansion

nothing

For magnum 177

The usual high quality pellets from H&N

use screw on tin cap

This is a must have in your ammo box.

Not a plated Baracuda but just as perfectly made!

The lid--provide a screw on lid, please.

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 Baracuda Hunter when I want expansion. It's probably not plated in order to promote expansion. The copper plated H&N Baracuda Power is also one of the "5" same-holers that I've found in my testing and it should be optimal for penetration. My other Diana 34 "same-holers" are the RWS Diabolo Basic, Crosman Premier Ultra Mag Heavy, and the Crosman Premier Super Match.

Very tight groupings (0.5" at 20 yd) from a Storm XT with GRTIII trigger.

Screw on lid

Great accuracy even in lower power guns

Nothing.

Another very good product from H&N. Made for the higher power rifles, but shoots very accurate in mid power and co2 guns also.

everything!

not a thing

these pellets are very hard hitting they are really good for small game hunting

Consistant and uniform.

Nothing

Between these and the round nose I won't use anything else! Tight groupings! Far better the the Crosman Premier.

The consistency of size in other words precision and that is what I look for in a pellet. I mic several of them at random and find no deviation. I have only had a chance to sight in my 350 mag at 18 feet in my garage using rock maple board for my target The penetration is pretty good and consistency is excellent in hitting the target. The weather has not been cooperating so have not had a chance to set up for 50 yards.I know it will do a number on a fox, have yet to go after a coyote. Will give an update when sighting in for 50 yards. If it stops snowing. Wayne

A screw on lid

EVERYTHING

More per tin

These are obnoxiously accurate and hard hitting. I can consistently hit the same hole over and over with these. They drop squirrels, rabbits and skunks as if you hit them with a shovel. Small birds turn to a cloud of red mist and feathers when hit with these.

After trying the beeman kodiak wich looks very near the same as these, Well these are just the best. They consistaly produce tight little groups. You are just plain going to hit what your aiming at.....every time. I posted pics of the trash can at 50 yards goes right threw it. Very hard hitting very accurate

I don,t like the little tin,s with 200 pellets I want a big tin with 500 round in it

I am putting these threw a Diana 350 mag wich is a bear to shoot anyway. Had to learn how. This pellet make just a huge difference

very clean well shape pellets

need bigger tins like 500 count

I tried these out on my bench and got a group out of my Diana 350 mag the size of a dime. So i was plinking at a galvanized steel gaebage can out by my barn, I paced it off at 51 paces about 50 yard I was using the silver point wich are a little heavier and getting near threw dents so droped one of these hollow points in and wow blew right threw the side of the garbage can. could,nt belive it so tried it agian yep right threw. These are great! ...but only 200 hundred in a tin look just like beeman kodiak same weight to but more polished beeman give ya 300 in a can. Hey a galvanized steel garbage can is pretty dang heavy weight sheet metal ..... One of them shots hit the seam where it is folded up double and still went threw. I shared pics so take a look

very clean, hard hitting and accurate. No damaged pellets in my tin. Mushrooms very well.

offer 500 per tin, lower the price a little.

Shoot very well in a Benjamin Trail XL 1500. Tight groups 1/2" AT 20 yards. Very hard hitting on small game.

Most accurate pellet I have ever used. I have a Benjamin Trail XL 1500. at 25 yards I can do about .5'' when the regular baracudas shot over 3''. I have hit targets from as far as 70 yards with power

More pellets per tin, and sometimes its hard to find these in stock

If you like these, STOCK UP, they are very hard to find

great hunting pellet and knock down power in a small pellet.

we need a .22 and .25 in this pellet!!!

need 500 count tins!
