Name what you consider an underrated pellet -

[SteveV]

My choice is the Crosman 14.3 field hunting pellet. Although I've never hunted a field, have hunted in a field.
But seriously, these pellets really shoot well in all of my .22 caliber ag's.
I was testing some H&N Barracuda 18 grainers. They were doing pretty well out to around 35 yards, so moved on to my 45 yard target, shotgon pattern, some didn't even hit the shoot n see target. Switched over to the Crosman points, first shot nailed the red center dot that's not much bigger than the pellet. But I never see them mentioned here, it's always JSB this or that. Don't get me wrong, I shoot JSB & the AA version in my .177 ag's, but I can't find an expensive pellet that shoots any better in my .22 bottle builds. Not bitchin', in fact, I consider it a fortunate situation.

So, my AGN brethren, what are your thoughts on an underrated pellet?

I like CPHPs…

 

[Dcorvino]

Eun Jin ( Seneca) 25 cal 43 grain pellets are one of my favorites pellets

 

[Ranchibi]

I feel the JSB RS .22 series 13-14gr are unhrealded for lower power airguns like my Prod.

 

[Motorhead]

The JTS .22 cal 18.1 & .25 cal 25.4
These China pellets are the real deal ... super accurate and of very high quality.

Under rated as well not real known about.

 

[Septicdeath]

RWS Superdome Field Line Pellet 14.5. They are inexpensive but shoot very well in several of my guns.​

I feel the JSB RS .22 series 13-14gr are unhrealded for lower power airguns like my Prod.

I agree, the 13.34gr .22 JSB RS are really good. Cleaned a 48shot field target course with them once.

Another one is the JSB .20 Heavy @ 15.89 as a viable long range option. Ballistic coefficient of around 0.045-0.048. There's only a couple pellets with better BCs, and none of them are substantially better. But we hear very little about the .20 Heavy. VERY underrated.

The black box daisy flathead pellets do nice in pistol

 

[rigbymauser]

EunJin .177cal 16grain roundnose and 17grain pointed shoots with match accuracy in my Revere @ 40meters.

For $6.xx a tin for 500 the Crosman Premier HP .22 are great. I go through 1-3 tins a week and the JSB equivalent would be expensive.

I don’t wash them but I do dump them out on a paper towel to get all the junk separated. I also add a few drops of lube.

Agree. My HW110 ST loves them. Not only that but they are clean with no burs, deformations or skirt damage.

You know my saying is " i dont mind a pellet picky gun as long as it picks cphp"

I wish one of the companies would build a high power .20 pellet/slug shooter.....would fill a nice niche.

I really like the H&N 18’s. These shoot as well as the JSB’s and are more uniform and slightly harder, so no damaged skirts. And on that note…I think I’ll go send some across the yard!!

 

[EdinGa]

.177 and .22 Daisy/Winchester HPs. They aren't too shabby on paper and they are great for pesting out to 30-35 yards.

 

[Triglav]

The German, Falke pellets in .177, from what I've seen, they're superb pointed pellets.

Aren't the Excite series just for CO2 pistols?
