timmytree Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 The best pellets are the ones that are most accurate in your gun. Whatever pellet hits the killzone will kill a pigeon at reasonable range but you and your gun have to put it there first! Try a range of pellets from AA, JSB, H&N, even different headsizes until you find the one that suits your barrel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisjpainter Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 As above mate. I had one of these in .177 and it worked well with both the AA diabolo and the H&N FTT, but if you want a heavier job, the Bisley Mags worked well too BUt honestly, whichever pellet hits the bird in the head or heart and lungs is the one to go for. Get a good grouping and that's all that matters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SakoQuad Posted February 9, 2013 Report Share Posted February 9, 2013 My 510 loved the logan penetrators (or Pax Exterminators - same pellet) as a hunting pellet. Pigeons and rabbits didn't like them very much at all! They are a bit heavier at 9.5gn but I found they were more consistent than the AA and seemed to hit that bit harder. I used H&N's for target shooting as also very accurate and not as expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
