Page 3 - H&N Rabbit Magnum, .177 Reviews

The bullet shape. I assume this would be more accurate at the higher velocities of the more powerful air rifles.

I would hollow these things out to lighten them and to allow more flexibility in the pellet to attenuate the tight fit.

The weight is too heavy and the fit is too tight for the gamo air rifle I tried to shoot them out of. A couple of these pellets did not exit the barrel on firing, but delayed for several seconds. The ones that did exit, the velocity was so slow that they were unable to reach the target.

Shape.

Dont know where to start.

These shoot like a shotgun out of my disco and mrod. Doo doo pellet. Awful pellet. Just garbage. I hate to say this about an H&N pellet, because my favorite pellet is the H&N Barracuda, but these just stink!

stopping power and shape

needed a lead free version

you need to know the lenght of your range coz due to the weight at 30yards theres the drop

knockdown power

price

due to the weight the drop begins on 30 yards,know your range and adjust and yull hit 80yards like me....

I wanted to try something a little heavier a while back and decided to try H&N's next step up in the heavy-weight division from the tried, and true Baracuda Match I've faithfully used for the last couple yr's, In my modded XS-B4-2A(900+fps w/ 10.65gr,. H&N BM's) I got an average M/V of 869fps, with the round's having an 1.5" higher POI on the 20M target, even with the added weight I found that the pellet's design really componsates, I also noticed this w/ the H&N SilverPoint's.Go Figure,LoL. As for accuracy, grouping's not as tight as the BM's, but still in the black, Excellent B/C. The round's are a little snug in the XS-B4-2A, so I lubed the tin with a few drop's of Napier pellet lube, and used a pell-seat I fashioned from an allen key(The 'B4's are an U/L springer), and after that No trouble loading.

Since these round's are Cylindrical(bullet shaped), offering different head sizes would be a little difficult, I would suggest a slightly smaller diameter for the ease, and benefit of a more universal fit..

The .22 version of this round is quite a bit better than it's .177 'lil brother, I put them up against the Big Boy's from Skenco(25+gr,.), and I managed to get better grouping's, better M/V, and the much better mushrooming effect of a solid bullet shape as opposed to the hollow pellet splat.
These are Heavy round's, so use your judgement in which gun's you use them in, I wouldn't use these in anything that doesn't get a "magnum" rating.
If you're serious about your A/G hunting, then these are well worth a try,,In either caliber, and with H&N on the label, you know you're getting outstanding Quality, and Quality Control. Cheer's, and Happy Hunting. Andy

Good shape and weight for varmint killing power. Consistent and cleanly formed with no casting marks or burrs.

Although these pellets fit very snugly into the chamber which seems necessary because of the lack of a large flared expansion skirt, IMO, they are a bit too snug. Accuracy and killing power don't seem to be affected much, if any, but it always leaves me feeling a bit worried. They also seem a bit overpriced, although, I am sure that PyramydAir is not to be faulted for this.

If you need a good heavyweight killer for varminting, this is the one, although they really don't expand much (if at all) for a hunting pellet!

These are Awesome in the right airgun.These are only for high fps guns.PCPs and Breakbarrels.Great takedown pellet.

Nothing.Perfect Bullets.

These are a bullet shaped pellet.It is a tight fit do to the shape of the pellet.I use a pellet pusher to fit it in my breakbarrel.
You could use a metal rod.

The shape is unique.

They are to large to fit my 177 rws air rifle

Very poor penitation because they do not enter the barrel completely thus deforming when action is closed. This definely effects speed and penitation.
