mushroom 14,144 Posted June 17, 2009 Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 has anyone used these pellets??? I bought a tin of .22 rangemasters yesterday and after destroying the stake i put my targets on i shot a bunny clean through the head at 50-55 yards (yes i know it's a distance but i have had to do a lot of long shot practice for this permission due to lack of good cover in parts) said bunny flew further than i've ever seen a bunny fly. high up in the air and back with three flips to boot the lad with me said it looked like it had been shot with a rimmie from where he was stood. The energy retention at 55 yards say must be quite phenominal for a legal limit rifle would love to know if anyone has the figures for these pellets. Quote Link to post
