RWS Super h points,

not used them personally,but they are reputable and cheap!!!

RWS Hobbies are formidable also.

Knock em into low orbit!

 

Happy Hunting mate.

I use what you use in my Mrs Ultra, AA Fields. Very accurate in her barrel and are very good on vermin.

 

Try to think accuracy first buddy before shape of pellet.

 

The reason i say this is it doesn't matter what shape or size of lead you aim at the brain, if done correctly and accurately the vermin will go over.

 

If your shooting inaccurate and out of your capabilities and the pellet is impacting all over then that's where your problems will start and wounding shots will be caused.

 

For body shots ie heart and lungs a bigger calibre or a pellet that deforms easily on impact works better.

 

If you can get some RWS Super H Points and they shoot accurately through your barrel and if shooting rats I'd say pellet on pellet at around 12 to 15 yards I'd use them buddy.

 

If not stick with what works best now.

A pellet I have found to be very accurate, very good quality (not found an unusable one yet) and well priced are Crosman Premier Ultra Magnums! I have run these through BSA and HW barrels, very accurate grouping! Good delivery of power too!

Hi Gaz.

 

Second vote here for Defients 5.52s nice clean pellet, also JSB Exacts...again 5.52s.

Have to say, not as many damaged in the difients as there are in JSBs.

Hi Gareth.

 

Yes I do mate, lucky to have 3 BSAs... Ultra Multi in .22..... Scorpian SE again in .22...... and a lovely SuperTen BBK also in .22

All three have been to John Bowkett to have tuning work done on them, and Blueprinting.

After his care and attention, they all perform faultlessly, very pleased with them.

He is a very helpfull and pleasnt guy to talk to.
