quicksilver 0 Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 Had a good morning with rapid 7 on golf course. 21 bunies , 1grey squirel and one mag pie . Using a mk1 rapid that I have for 19yrs. Still going strong zeroed at 50m. What pellets do you favour for .22 at 22 ft/lbs looking sobering hard hitting and good quality , I get a lot of skirt damage with aa pelets. Quote Link to post

Stick with AA Field at 22ft lb, Magnums are excellent but heavy, from about 30ft lb the Magnums really come into their own...but the AA are still good there as well in my Falcon. A lot depends on what your barrel likes as well!! Quote Link to post
aaronpigeonplucker 32 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 nice shooting mate! i take it your gun is FAC with such a far zero. Bisley magnums work well and h&N barracuda extra heavy work well to apparently. Quote Link to post
dc5 0 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 I have a rapid mk2 fac and I use 18grn AA field plus Quote Link to post
quicksilver 0 Posted June 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 Yeah it's fac, one if the first rapids so it is 22ft lbs, just got it back from theoben and they say it can't be set higher due to the older model of barrel. As mentioned it's zeroed at 50m and I find it ok for my shooting. I av .17hmr and other rifles if I need extra range. I will try a few different types of pellets to see what perform better. Thanks for the replies Quote Link to post
pest hunter 151 15 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 Hi mate i have had probs looking for pellets but a good friend gave me a box of logun penetrator and no matter what gun i put them in they beet any other pellet. Although I have never tested them in FAC im sure they will cope well. Quote Link to post
garfield 23 Posted June 19, 2010 Report Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) have a look at the bottom on the fac list i'm sure they would do the trick http://www.defiantpellets.co.uk/products.htm dont know why but these tickle me http://www.piledriverpellets.co.uk/ Edited June 19, 2010 by garfield Quote Link to post
