P03 Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 I've just bought 400 Logun Penetrators. I thought that a pellet designed for PCP rifles would be more accurate (and give better kills as they are heavier) but they can't touch accupels through my S16S, I can't get a group (5 pellets) less than 2" at 25 yds with them but accupels are about 1/2" group at the same distance. Your opinions would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNAKEBITE Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 My opinion for what it's worth is "Stick with the accupells" Logun penetrators are gimmicky waste of money. (The sort of thing I would buy really ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shootist Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 (edited) Logun Penetrators (Exterminators) are very well made pellets, but are very barrel fussy... they seem to either shoot amazingly well or pretty awfull. The .22's seem to suit far fewer guns than the .177's in my experience. If they work in your gun they can be extremely accurate. Tony De Cross won the UKAHFT championship using them a couple of years ago ! So they cant be all that bad ...

jeff Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 I think if your pellets work well in your rifle stick with them, I use logun penetrators in an old .22 webley omega with a gas ram fitted they are very acurate, yet accupells fly all over the place.

roblade Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 one thing you will learn if you like to have a variety of rifles is, no matter how many rifles you have you will always find you need more types of pellets, some rifle s like one type and others hate them, so dont throw or give away any pellets as you never know when you might find a rifle that ikes them, and by this time the price will probably be well above what you paid for them now LOL ROB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren m Posted December 21, 2005 Report Share Posted December 21, 2005 tried them in my Axsors a solo and a S410 did not suit the barrels at all , so gave them away at the club . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 I still have 600 of the things and my Alros hates em so does my Career. They are not too bad out of the Gunpowers i have but i think they are a waste of money I let my Brother in law use the Logun s-16 and he shot a rabbit (chest shot) at 30 yards. I opened the rabbit up to cook fer the dog and found the pellet in the chest cavity with NO deformation what so ever :thumbs: I always though a mushrooming effect was best to cause severe trauma to the tissues? Oh well i will stick to H&N FTT from now on as ALL my rifle like those Lord Geordie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubshot Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 Exterminators are made of Lead Using the Tin Dynamic Shape Loguns have Brought Production Rights to certian Rounds And sold as Logun Penetrators They are only made of one Head size per Calibre Reason they might not work in some Gun's But like Dynamics they do give best results in a Clean Dry Action and Barrel Design is normally Flatter Shooter than Wasted Pellets They will not Group anywhere near other wasted pellets. So testing does need a little time and effort A Growing number of Serious Shooters do use them Otherwise someone is buying Hundreds of Boxes per week and Storing them As Factory is Flat out making them I recently Brought out New Weights .177 @ 15.00 Grains - Made for FAC's .22 @ 18.00 Grains - Made for FAC's .25 @ 25 Grains - Made for FAC's I do have Free Trial pots of Above Please email Name & address, confirming Calibre , make & Model Gun. I Still have limited Stock of 9.50's in .177 & 20.50's in .22 bob@practicalshooting.org.uk BOB/R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNAKEBITE Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Am I correct in assuming they are a longer pellet than the average? If so will they cope with a multishot magazine? I have seen it somewhere where it says a pellet is not suitable for a mag'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darren m Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 i think they will fit most mags no problem . i used the 9.5gr ex,s in my rapid 17 and they where brill , the best groups and flatest flying pellet i ever used in the smaller cal.

All Exterminators - Logun Penetrators will Fit in Most known Magazines When we design and bring out New Rounds We do make them to fit the top Ten Gun and Magazines.

Funny how we used those guns in Design & Testing They do need to have a Clean & Dry Barrel And Action to Find the Rifleing They will have a Total different Aim point to a Wasted Pellets BOB/R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
