DEFIANT OGIVE

[Marksman 934]

Anyone tried them???

 

They look quite a hard hitting pellet if theyre anything like the Standard Defiant

Not heard of them until now Darryl.

 

Look as hard hitting as a brick, but then at 600+ fps so does a cotten bud

Someone on the BSA owners club forum has put a post up showing his results of using them at 40 yards and they look impressive. Sorry I cant link to the post, just do a search in google and the link is on there!

Hi Darryl.

 

Not tried them yet, but on my list to do

 

Consistancy and quality of the Defients is brilliant, which is what us shooters need..........., some of the gash thats out there is terrible for quality.

 

With the effort we put into selecting, conditioning, and trials, its nice to start off on the right foot from the beggining, if possible.

 

Just out of interest, have a look at a few pellets under a magnifying glass ( A bit anal I know ) but when you see the variations in shape and head size, not to mention varying skirt thickness and balance.

Easy to see then why some of us can suffer fron pellet spiral and lack of consistant accuracy, especially at the longer distances.

 

Add to that inconsistant wieghts and your on a hiding to nothing.

 

Massive gap in the market for QUALITY and CONSISTANT pellet manufacture

 

I would gladly pay a little extra for a well produced pellet, after all, its a very important part of set ups

 

 

Just my thoughts mate.

Suffered awful quality from one of the best brands/manufacturers in the market (allegedly), that is why I buy American ammunition! Never had a bad pellet since I changed brands either...

Used to use the original Defiants in my S10 so would be interesting

The original report in the BSAOG was made in Jan,08. general opinion then by other posters was much the same as nowadays, some loved them some found no advantage over their favourit lead ammo.

 

Just been reading a poll started by Clubshot on the "Shooting the breeze" forum, again in 09. the pax pellet wasnt liked at all by 70% of the members who some said it was OK in still air but badly affected by wind!. best to try them yourselves I suppose.
