Page 3 - H&N Baracuda Power, .22 Reviews

Very consistent. Tights groups in my .22 cal BSA and Crosman.

more for the money

nope

very accurate, nice presentaction,

nothing

excellent product, outstanding quality.

These pellets are extremely accurate. The Benjamin trail XL .22 caliber shoot these pellets very well.

Nothing........this is my first time shooting these.......nice groups.

If you are hunting squirrels or rabbits, I would recommend these because of their accuracy. These pellets are well manufactured with no defects, definitely worth the money.

H&N Baracuda Match, .22 Cal (5.52mm), 21.14 Grains is one of the best pellets I have ever used and really like to use.

All airgunners should try H&N

It’s very strong pellet and accurate

H&N Baracuda Power i thing is one of the best airgunners can buy.

overall H&N is one of the best air gun pellets i found and used.

Accurate pellet. Great for squirrel hunting.

None

i like that is copper plated its heavy for hunting and knock-downd power...but it was not accurate on my crosman AS2250 and i'm looking for knockdown power and accurate.

nothing this is a good pellet i kept it its super accurate on my talonss,but not on my crosman AS2250 which is for the rifle that i bought them for.

this pellet is for powerful rifle..must try it could be accurate on your low power rifle,,i said try a tin like i did i bougth 4 diff. tin to see which of the pellets my rifle was going to like..the winner was..H&N BARACUDA HUNTER EXTREME.

Love the copper coating. Very accurate pellet with alot of punch.

NOTHING!

These pellets are for powerful rifles! Tame that magnum rifle for accuracy with this pellet!

The copper coating keeps your hands clean and seems to greatly reduce the exposure to lead residue. I did not find these to have deformities or damage; great quality. They came in a tin with a secure screw on lid.

Offer them in a tin of 500 at a cost savings per round.

I have a Benjamin Marauder .22 cal. I built on a .25 cal. platform (larger valve porting, transfer porting, etc.) I also installed a 10lb. hammer spring with buffers to dampen vibration and bounce. I have it tuned at about 75% of its velocity potential and am getting an average velocity of 985 fps. from this pellet (1st 20 shots). At 25 yards, 5 shot groups average .462". (This is a real world average, not just isolated best of the best reporting.) I killed 16 squirrels with 16 shots at ranges from 25 to almost 40 yards with this pellet. That is how consistent the point of impact is with these in my gun; no flyers.

H&N makes quality pellets. They're clean, undamaged and reasonably consistent in size and weight. The new pellet tins now have a screw-on top which protrudes slightly and an indented bottom which makes them ideal for stacking. If you're looking to avoid exposure to lead you may want to consider these pellets.

In my search for "the-one" pellet that gives me the best accuracy, I measure, chronograph and calculate. This methodology works well and I highly recommend it. The following information is based on 12 shots with the Weihrauch HW90. Numbers have been rounded and the average is based on the sum of the velocity of the total number of shots. The numbers don't lie and although these pellets are pretty they did not perform well in my HW90. I attained greater velocity and energy with the lead Baracuda pellet.

It's funny as you can hear in the indoor range how much faster they are than other pellets. You shoot and crack its already hitting the target! I found them to be "VERY" accurate in my Gamo Bone Collector. My friend shot them out of his Crossman Titan with the lower velocity 695 FPS and they were real accurate from that gun also. What? This rifle has been discontinued?? (Titan 695) It is such a perfect gun and so accurate.

Why change a good thing?

I also have the Gamo ones but they have longer skirts. I will be trying those out next week. We are going to try them in the Titan also.

Never seen a pellet like it. Wasn't expecting such a shiny color when i opened it.

nothing

shot like crap out of my marauder .22, couldn't get good groups at any distance.

Never have seen a pellet this bright and shiny really surprised me when i opened the tin.

nothing

I've shot about 50-100 of these and couldn't get them to group well at all in my marauder. Might just be my gun who knows; don't let this discourage you from getting them.

Good accuracy & weight, great penetration.

Screw top lid & larger count.

Excellent penetration.
