H&N Spitzkugel .177 Cal, 8.64 Grains, Pointed, 500ct

They shoot nice

Good penetration. Uniform in shape. These were reasonably accurate for a pointed pellet.

Nothing.

While I am not a fan of pointed pellets for accuracy, these are pretty good. I shot 20 round groups at 10 yards and was consistently hitting within the 10 ring. I did have 1 flyer that missed its mark by about 3 inches. Like all H&N pellets they are clean pellets with no burrs or manufacturing blemishes. They loaded into rifles and pistols with no problem. I believe these pellets would be excellent for shooting pests because of their penetration.

Don't think I can blame H&N for these... I'm finding that pointed tip pellets are basically terrible pellets. There is no consistency to them and about the only thing they're good for is breaking in a barrel. In terms of penetration, I see no advantage to these over domed pellets. Basically, I will leave the same review on the other pointed pellets I tested.

Nothing... I just won't ever buy them or any other pointed pellets again.

I don't know why these are made or who the market is. After wondering why they shoot so terribly, I did some research and it seems that I'm certainly not the first person to notice. I guess machining a perfectly symmetrical pointed pellet is impossible and will cause it to fly all over the place.

Conviently packaged. Design precission.

The ones I pick out must be flaured. The ones picked out by my son, and my wife hit the mark dead on, however the pieces I pick out miss their intended mark, so obviously the pieces I pick out to use are the ones with boo-boos.

Did you know squirels could laugh out loud?

they were clean but that is about all I can say

The grouped horrible at 10meters. They produced around 35mm grouping compared to 10mm group with RWS supermag for me at 10meters.

These, IMO are the best Pointed(Lead) pellet on the market, If you want all of the attribute's of a pointed pellet along with the accuracy of a Match round then this is the pellet for you. The .22 version of this round, paired with my Crosman TAC1 Extreme, has put quite a few Pheasent's, Partridge, and Snow-Shoe Hare's on the dinner table;)

Add a smooth skirted version of this pellet(other than the "Coppa-Point, which is available with a smooth skirt)

These, along with the H&N "Neue-SpitzKugeln" & H&N "Coppa-Point's" are fantastic for Vermin Termination and are accurate enough to put you in the black shot after shot. The "Spitz-Kugeln" gives you great distance, as well as having a good B/C, and the accuracy to make for terrific transfer of energy down-range. Thank's for bringing in the H&N line-up P/A, Now, How about bringing in more H&N .22 offering's, Especially The "Coppa-Point's(in .177 as well)
