Chard Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 I used to use Super Steel. I found them fine on close or medium range stuff, but I didn't like them on rangey stuff. As Cookoff013 says, I think they need more lead at long range, as the pellets lose velocity more than lead does Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emmsy Posted August 17, 2010 Report Share Posted August 17, 2010 anything past about 25 yards and you can more or less double the lead compared with lead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
