Hi All I have gone back to .177 for general hunting (sorry Evo ) and with pheasant season ending I know the call will come in soon to do some Squirrel bashing on a friends permission. As a lot of this tends to be fairly close range <25 yds I was considering trying some pellets with a bit more wallop know how tough the grey bushy tailed blighters can be. So I deceide to give the H+N barracuda extreme a go with the weight being a little higher and they have a novel expansion design on the front being a bit like a Phillips screw head! Now previously my experience of anything but dome headed pellets has been anything but great with the groups opening up horrendously at anything above 10yds so hopes were not high, but I must say I am surprised at the results. The below were comparison groups shot off a bench in still conditions at 25yds indoors. All groups are 10 shot groups straight from the tin and I have put a 5p in to give an idea of scale. Ignore the top line as this was me tweaking the zero a bit. I would think the groups may open up on the H+N past about 30yds but for sub 30yds I will certainly be giving them a crack at Squirrels and Rats when we get going down the fishery later in the year.
