realtreedave Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 tac2 are fine for hunting but dont try and stretch the range much more than 25 yards because they are quite light as well as long,so have a tendancy to tumble in flight particulary if it is windy.always experiment on paper first before using in the field.i have used them against both rabbits and squirels to good effect,but now only use them on the range :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr salt Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 i dont like them that much . i always use rws hobby ,such a great pellets for little money. Never goes right through ,and hits hard.But more important bsa s love them. The choice of pellets now ,is endless. if you like to try different types buy a pellet pack.which will contain loads of different ones. cheers scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince Green Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 At that price why don't you buy some and try for yourself. I always found these "killer" pellets to be less effective than the ordinary pellets but there is nothing like trying for your self. I am suprised that they are selling those pellets on e-bay because the sale of pellets by post has been stopped. This is a real blow because all the air rifle dealers are stuck away in odd corners of the country like Cromer and hard to get to and its hard to get pellets any more. Unless you are prepared to take what you can get from your local shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheHunter Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Hi Sammy You might get more answers in the Air Gunners section but for what it is worth Air Arms Diabolo Field, washed and sprayed with a little silicone grease equals a very bad day for Mr Bunny and his pesky mates.

bruno22rf Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Thought the merits of prometheus pellets had been discussed to death? IMHO any claims made by prometheus are as reliable as an M.P.s expenses claim.There are so many time proven pellets out there that are more accurate than we will ever be that i cant see the point in trying new types-what can you gain?

John_R Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 That advert suggests they are long, which might cause trouble in a magazine. As per answers above, they are probably rubbish after a relatively short distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
