For you guys that haven’t seen it yet. A day out with the BRK Ghost doing some long range hunting with pellets. I think a lot of us forgot how well pellets can work as well for hunting
Using pellets for long range hunting with the BRK Ghost
- Thread starter AirgunnerSA
- Start date
@pesty3782 And I used our Ghosts last summer to put the hurt on some pdogs. He was using .22/18.1 grain pellets and I used .20/15.89. He whacked two in a row at long range, 120 yards if I remember correctly.

I don't have a Ghost , But I have a Prophet , Cricket, Veteran, and a few more Pellet guns, I shoot pellets because I bought pellet guns , I might shoot slugs if I can find a good slug barrel, Now if I can find a good slug barrel that's rifled for slugs I will shoot slugs not pellets , The right tool for the job..
Way cool video, The BRK is a fine gun.

Personally I use pellets, I’m only using sub 12 so they do the job perfectly fine for what I need.
Great video by the way

Unfortunately, with the current fervor for slugs, many are quick to dismiss tried and true (pellets) as they chase after shiny things they're told they should be interested in.
I'm not immune, as I've dabbled with slugs. But pellets are certainly a much more straightforward route from point A to point B. (Point A being "I want precision and accuracy", with Point B being the realization of those desires).

I NEVER forget. Especially since my guns ONLY shoot pellets (FX Bobcat .22, Royale .25 & Boss .30) due to Original Smooth Twist barrels (no slugs). All 3 are deadly & dead accurate so I've never caught "slug fever" (or fervor).

After playing around with slugs for a while I have landed on the pellets. Except for my r5. That guy guts slugs. But for .25 and under I use pellets. There may be no justification for this thought process but when I hunt public lands I use pellets. I’ve never been fond of leaving my future up to some wardens person views. Hunting rets states pellets or BBs. I also like the crap BCs they have feel better about needing a smaller back drop.

I always check the maximum effective range of all my pellet shooting guns with pellets. I can’t get too much over 120 yards before I can’t trust them. But once I find their max range, be it 100 or 118 yards, I absolutely trust them. They always shoot great to their max range.

Yes sir. Starting @ post #390, everything is .20.

Hmm... Die meneer soek bietjie ekstra kyke. Dit is goed. Daai tarentaal het mooi geval. 'n Dem taai ding vir 'n windbuks, veral op daardie afstand.

Wow, I checked the google translation, ha-ha. Instead of "guinea fowl" for "tarentaal" it translated "turtle tongue".

That was quite impressive!!! Great shooting and great job in showing that pellets can go out quite a bit further than people give them credit for.
