Best Pellets

[Adam-RunningDog 1]

I bet i am really doing your head in with all these Topics i am doing.

But the thing is i am so excited to get this new rifle tomorrow my first PCP, i am getting the Air arms S410 TDR, I have shot them in the past and they are amazing just cant wait to get one for myself so i was wondering...just to make it perfect what would be the perfect pellets for hunting for this rifle at the moment i am using field target trophy and they are really small and are a good hutning pellet by my eyes but up the road there is a guy with an Air Arms and wont put anything else through it apart from the air arms pellets so i was wondering what do you lot the experts think i should use for hunting

Thanks Adam

I use AA Field .22 in my 410c & i find them a accurate,consistent pellet.I prep mine to get rid of the odd bit swarf, odd

damaged skirt.I think they weigh 16.2g so there one of the heavier round head pellet & when they connect with a rabbits heed they make a nice whack .

Air arms field are a good consistent pellet no doubt about it, and come in at just over the 16 grain mark.

Use them in my Titan Manitou and Rapid MFR and they work a treat.

As a matter of intrest if you ask Falcon (was Titan) the best pellets they always say.

'We set our guns up using Bisley Magnums'

I sometimes think these are a bit 'heavy' for a 12ft/lb rifle.

A mate of mine swears by AA Field.

Try both and see which gives you better grouping , also check through a chrono if you can. I had an AA410 that put air arms pellets out at 11.5 ft/lb but accupels would drop the power to 10ft lb.

Perlins advice is sound different pellets can give differnet 'power'

Again I know Falcon set the '12ft/lb with Bisley Magnums.

Must borrow a chrony to see what the Titan does!!!

Thanks boys buts there is some bad new for me,

went down the local gun shop earlier to get all my kit sorted for when i buy it saturday i asked if they had the TDR and no it was gone i was tamping so i settled with the brand new model of the S200 cracking looking gun and i had 3-9 x 42 sights so there should be a few less bunnies about with a bit of luck

they all do the same job some better than others but i think this gun will be a cracker thanks for you help

You won't go far wrong with the s200, if it's anything like the old model.
