H&N BARACUDA MATCH

[POWERSHIFT93]

After many trails and errors i have finally found the dead on magic pellet. for my FX Independence .22 rifle it is the H&N Baracuda match 5.53 pellet I can not fathom the accuracy of this pellet. been dropping those squirrley monsters left and right from the tree tops it drops them clean. just thought i would share this with you. but now i have another problem what to do with all those JSB'S 18.39 I have around 8,000 plus and 700 plus of those polymags which i don't think they all that great in the first place. so if any one has any idea's feel free to let me know.

Barracuda match worked fantastic in my bobcat in 22 cal at 41.5 ft lbs,
And served me well for 2 years,
Important thing i found with smooth twist barrels is to clean thoroughly before using barras and puttiing a few mags througj the rifle to settle it down,
Just hope they work as well in 25 impact

Are the JSBs the Jumbo Heavies? because my Hatsan Gladius .22 works great with those pellets. If you want to sell some or give them away let me know.

Powershift93,
At what speed are you shooting them at, accuracy wise at 60-80 yard, are they better then JSB 18 and was this after ploshing your barrel?

i shoot less then 60 yards, i would say 850-900 fps i never got around to the crony thing, never did that barrel polishing just used those bore swabs and got it squeaky clean in there. way better than the jsb 18's up here in the frozen tundra those squirrely monsters get pretty tough in the winter time and those 21 H&N's are lights out on them. they have a very flat fight path where the jsb's do have a curve flight path. i had those jsb monsters and they were all over the place. i have tried those baracuda hunter extremes but they leave all of there energy on impact and never go deep into the hide of those squirrely monsters. hope this helps you, let me know if you have any other questions. the ft lbs for the .22 independence is 30lbs or 40 joules. you have to get your zeroed but every 1 of those i have shot have been dead on in the center of the cross hairs.

Thank you, I'll try some on my next pellet order.

I can not brag enough on these pellets dead on hits. i took a squirrley monster a couple of hours ago. but before that every day before i see those vermin i take a test shot just to make sure i am zeroed in. so earlier this morning i filled a empty gatorade bottle of water i locked in the bottle in the cross hairs and watched the pellet deposit it's energy into that jug right where i had the center point of the hairs on. then shot a baracuda hunter extreme it just passed right through without making to much of a fuss.
