If you use your pellet gun to control undesirable rodents and leave them for the foxes or vultures to feed on and don't want to give the good guys lead poison, then these Baracuda Green 22 caliper pellets are the best to use. Unfortunately, since they are about the only lead-free pellets on the market, the manufacturer (H&N Sport) clearly is taking advantage of the lack of competition and is charging more than twice as much as for the same pellet in lead. I know about the “economy of scale” and other factors that may influence their cost, but this still seems an excessive penalty to be ecologically aware. On the plus side, they do the job nicely and are quite accurate.

This is the second time I have purchased these particular pellets. They are made of an alloy mostly consisting of tin. On MOHS scale of hardness, both tin and lead are rated at 1.5. So this pellet should work well with the rifling in barrels. When I opened the container of pellets, I was impressed that I did not see a single deformed pellet. They fit are super accurate in my Benjamin Trail NP XL and fit very snug in the breech. They will almost penetrate a 3/4 inch plywood board at 20 yds. They do not go through, but they make a bulge on the backside of the plywood and in some cases, even splinter the back of the board a little. Both purchases have been made from this vendor and he shipped promptly and the item arrived in good condition. I will buy again.

These are light but very consistent.

Took me a while to realize I should be using lead-free pellets when ridding the bird feeder of rodents. These shoot just like my lead Kodiaks; very accurate. Recommended.

Bought these for use in a Snowpeak M40S PCP air rifle and they don’t even fit in the magazine. These pellets are much to long compared to a normal .25 pellet. This should be noted in the product description that these will ONLY work in break barrel spring type single shot air rifles. Any sort of PCP air rifles with a magazine these will not work. As you can see from the imagine much to long.

Twice the price of my normal pellets & half the quantity, but target shooting @ 25 metres seem to be more accurate than my normal ones possibly because they seem to fit better in the magazine so less liable toexit the barre incorrectly

I bought these for a springer rifle but it says PCP rifles only in small letters on the tin. Thanks

I shoot these pellets from a Gamo Wildcat Whisper .177 rifle. These pellets are slightly sub-sonic, have a very flat trajectory, and are dead-on accurate out to 20 yds (as far as I've tried them so far) with pellets going through holes left by the previous pellets. Their performance is consistent and predictable and they hit VERY HARD! These pellets are rated [by the mfr.] for "medium range" (30 meters), and my experience certainly seems to support that.You can usually find these pellets on sale for around $15 which is around 5 cents per pellet, and absolutely worth it for the outstanding performance they provide and being lead-free. The physical quality of these pellets is impressive with incredible consistency of fit in the barrel, and they are, of course, clean to handle. Very highly recommended!

I was looking for an alternative to lead pellets to euthanize feral hogs we have been capturing. Sometimes the smaller hogs are roasted whole and the entire animal is used. So I didn't want lead fragments remaining in the carcass.These pellets are very hard. It will pass through 3/4" plywood with very little deformation. The photo is a pellet that had gone through 3/4" cabinet-grade, pre-finished maple plywood.Because they're lighter than the lead version of these pellets, the velocity is higher. The lead version of the pellet, weighing 31.02 grains, chronographs at 885 FPS when shot from my Benjamin Marauder. These tin pellets, weighing 19.91 grains, chronographs at 990 FPS.Accuracy is excellent, making a single-hole group at 10 meters. The point of impact was the same as the lead pellets, so no re-zeroing was necessary.

These are extremely accurate and I mainly use them for 10m event practice in my basement during these long lockdown months for punching holes in paper from my typical 10m event powered gear. They are hard and well formed which in fact is an advantage. They are ultra expensive but I have a solution for that; reusing them multiple times which is where the hardness works to my advantage. I have made a soft backstop with old rags and clothes that are soft enough so that the pellets don't deform on impact but at the same time dense enough so that the pellets don't go through the layers of rags, dissipate all their energy and simply drop down into the collection box below so I can pick them up and reuse them as long as they fit tightly in the barrel after which I discard them.Best use - low powered 10m event gear. Can be used in high powered equipment as well but may not carry the momentum for a long distance due to the light weight and may also cause a sonic boom.

Ottimi piombini per carabine libera vendita e full. Super penetranti e si deformano davvero poco. Questo vuol dire che la lega metallica di cui sono fatti è davvero molto più dura del normale piombo. Unica pecca: rapporto quantità/prezzo! Abbastanza cari e al tempo stesso troppo pochi in lattina (solo 300). Comunque li consiglio!!!

Very consistent pellet! Other pellets don't fit as snug in my Gamo Bonecollector as these do. I shoot these indoors @ 10 yards (30 feet) daily. Always consistent and save because they are lead free! I'm not sure what the exact diamater is of these but every one seems to seat nicely in the gun. I've purchased these many times :) They also work very well shooting squirrels. They are a bit light but that's because they are not lead. Expect that!Update December 2019:I continue to be amazed by these pellets. They are my go-to pellets for accuracy. I've upgraded my pellet gun and I have the same results. I have a squirrel target 150 feet away and consistently hit the mark. Time after time. I would 100% recommend these for anyone that is shooting indoors (no lead) and for accuracy.They are worth it!
