Good groups

Great pellets a bit expensive though but not as bad as others. Excellent groups

This pellet performs in my Benjamin and Air Arms PCP air rifles better than the H6N standard pellet.

This pellet is not as accurate as the Air Arms pellets. I am comparing pellet groupings at 67 yards for 10 shots. This may be a very good hunting round but I generally just target shoot.

the "HUNTERS" are an excellent pellet....... worth a try if youve never used them

not much ....great product

if your gun likes them they are consistant

These group very well with my gamo swarm magnum gen 2..

Price is a bit more. (but worth it in my opinion).

I've only used these in my gamo magnum..

These pellets are very accurate, and hit hard. I shot two tins of these today, and I didn't find a single bad pellet.

I wish I would have tried these earlier.

I shoot these out of a .22 caliber Ruger Air Magnum, with a Leapers 3-12x44 etched reticle scope. I mostly shoot from a bench.. These are now my favorite pellet. I thought the Baracuda Hunter Extreme pellets were the best, but I was wrong, my rifle absolutely loves these. If you own a Ruger Air Magnum, you should try these pellets. With my rifle, at 25 yard they punch through 1/2 pine boards with ease. They fit nicely in the barrel, and are relatively clean pellets. They are so fun to shoot, with very few fliers. I shot 400 of these pellets today, and I honestly feel every miss was my fault, not the fault of the pellets

I had been shooting Baracuda Match pellets in my 22 cal. Diana Chaser CO2 pistol. Performance on ground squirrels was good. I tried the Baracuda Hunter and find these to be as accurate as the Match but much more lethal. When using the match pellets, hit squirrels would fall over and then run or crawl away to die unless my shot was to the head. With the Hunter the percentage of 1 shot kills was much higher. Even if the squirrel was able to get under the leaves before I could get to it there was a clear blood trail.

I'm not smart enough to know what to change.

Best pellets I've found so far.

Good accuracy, as expected from all H&N pellets.

nothing

I purchased these for rodent control, but consider the hollow point cosmetic only.

Excellent looking pellets, very uniform, skirts are perfect, all typical of my experience with H&N. Unfortunately my Diana 48 does not like them. My gun likes a 5.54 pellet

A variety of head sizes.

I run my pellets through a Pellet Gage. The PG saves a lot of frustration and gives confidence in a hunting situation that the pellet will go as precisely as possible.

Very accurate in my Gamo Swarm Magnum. 1/2" groups at 25 yards

Nothing

Great hunting pellet

Hits hard and is accurate out of all three of my PCPs.

Nothing so far.......bigger tin maybe.

This is one of my go-to hunting pellets.

They shot very well out of my RWS 48.

nothing

No

hard hitting and more accurate than I am

lower price

Very accurate in my Gamo Urban

I fired about 15 different pellets into homemade ballistic jell. This one and the baracuda hunter extreme were the only ones that expanded.

Very accurate pellet, shoots good. I like the fact that in 177 cal you can buy the smaller tins of this pellet @ 40-42% discount. Can shoot these pellets between 850 to 1050 fps in my flash, novas, bully, sumatras, and Kral pit bulls.

Have them come in different tin counts like the 177 cal which comes in a 200 count and 400 count (IJS)

These are definitely hunting pellets, shooting doves, pigeons, and crows, these pellets leave big exit holes. I would say neck/head shots. Body shots tears big holes in flesh. Stock up on these if you plan on pesting/hunting. 50 yrds and in delivers an accurate hit with power.

Everything, superb quality. Thick skirts. Few damaged pellets. Accuracy in both .22 and .177. Waltger terrus. 177 and both .22 Marauder pcp and Diana 350 magnum (Springer)

Really accurate at close range. I don't know how they shoot further than 30 yards.

In the past 3 years since I started hunting small game with a PCP. I have taken approximately 90 to 100 fox squirrels. I have used the .22 caliber H&N Baracuda Hunter exclusively. All squirrels were taken with 1 shot with a Hatsan AT44-10QE. Ranges were between 20 and 50 yards. This pellet works as well as any .22 rimfire for heavy fox squirrels. Most were taken with head shots but maybe a quarter were also chest shots and those were just as deadly. No squirrel ran after hitting the ground. This is a super accurate pellet in my gun and devastating on small game!

Nothing

If your gun will shoot these pellets accurately I would highly recommend them for hunting.

Super accurate and hard hitting out of my Gamo Magnum. If you are looking for a great pellet to use in your Gamo Magnum, try these. You won't be sorry you did.

nothing

Tight fit.

Accurate in all my rifles. Good expansion.

Nothing.

These are great for hunting, or if you really want that water filled soda can to rip open!

Great performance on small game out to around 35 yards out of my Xisico Sentry. In my opinion they stop critters better than a 22lr.

Out of my gun these loose a bit of accuracy past 35 yards.
