colin lad Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 well after getting a bit concerned my ultra was a bad buy 12 types of pellet later i have finally found a pellet it like's, air arm's hunter 16gr was getting 5p coin groups at 30 yards, h&n match heavy were good too but at 21.14gr will keep them for close range rats at under 20 yards, some i tried were giving 2" groups and some were grouping 7 out of 10 in a tight group with 2-3 fliers, sorted now so can start to enjoy my gun, colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les*1066 Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 That's a result, Colin! I love my MMC Ultra .22. I did have a .177, too, but stupidly sold it. Oh well, I'm sure another one will come along one day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

secretagentmole Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 Awesome until the probe snaps, or the probe release snaps, or when the groingggle groingggle of the MMC cocking spooks the rabbits on a calm day. Sorry but the MMC ultra was an abomination to shooting. The SE is much much better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longbower Posted June 2, 2016 Report Share Posted June 2, 2016 (edited) Never had a problem with e MMC Mole, it never made a noise or broke , and accounted for many rabbits , magpies and squirrels. I had one, for a good few years so can express an 'informed view', did you ? Yes the SE IS better ! Edited June 2, 2016 by Longbower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dekers Posted June 3, 2016 Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 Have you tried the Field, they have the edge over the Hunter for me in 5.51 size, never found the Hunter that great. Not sure what size the Hunter is available in these days, not tried them for years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what size the Hunter is available in these days, not tried them for years! yes i did as they worked well in my air arms so tried AA field, jsb exact, rws dome, and a few other well known make 1st but they didn't group Zetter off here sent me 8 or 9 different pellet types to try and the AA hunters were best of them so will stick with them for ferral pigeons and use the heavy's for close rat work i barns as that all i got the air rifle for really colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colin lad Posted June 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2016 like yourself Dekers i have had quite a few guns over my 45 years shooting and this is certainly the most fussy gun i have owned including my rim fires and air rifles it was new only a couple of months ago and not had the equivalent of a full tin of pellets through it yet will try some other brands again in a while once it has properly settled down colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theandrew Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I've just for a bsa ultra se multishot and the air arm pellets in my gun are absolutely shocking. At first I thought I was going blind or there was a proplem with the gun. I then put jsb exact jumbo 15,89 .22 pellets in and I put 10 shots through a 5 pence whole at 30 yards.

bazzab Posted July 1, 2016 Report Share Posted July 1, 2016 I see people.discussing BSA air rifles and recommended pellets a fair bit. There is no such thing they are the most pellet fussy gun I've ever owned. They all like different pellets no 2 guns are the same I can confirm that Colins ultra is now bang on lol.
