Robbo Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Had my Air Arms TX200HC .177 for around a week now, tried 3 types of pellets- Air Arms Field Diablos David Nickerson MagnumPoint Logun Penetrators Got the AA Diablos perfectly tweaked with the scope. The Penetrators hit quite a bit lower due to them being heavier. The MagnumPoint ones dont seem very good at all Question is - is the Logun Penetrator that much better than AA Diablos for hunting? If so, then I will redo the scope so that if fires the Penetrators best. Thanks, Robbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bipolar Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I use AA diablos for my HW100T and accupels for the s200, I have bought loads of different ones and what really helped choose was using pellpacks, you get 30+ types of pells (10 of each) and you can get them mail order.

At 12 ft lb it's about precise pellet placement that gives the best kill rate. Not pellet weight or even calibre. Regards Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too dear in .177 at 1250 for £16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
