I am using the H&N Baracuda 18 with my FX Crown to target these starlings at one of my permissions. It has been working really well, consistent and deadly as long as I do my part with the follow thru and windage estimation.
I showed the process on how I typically zeroed my POI for each range, at 5 yards increments from 35 yards to 100 yards at the beginning of the video.
Please skip to midway to watch some starlings getting leaded.
Enjoy.

Nice video and great long range shooting! How do the Cuda 18gr compare to the JSB 18.1 in your Crown?

@only1harry. I used to shoot JSB 16 and 18gr exclusively. But since I started shooting the AA 16 and 18gr a few years back and I never looked back. I found the AA group a lot tighter in all my guns. Not sure why, but they just did.
I have only been shooting the H&N baracuda 18 recently after getting my hands on them. I guess I will have to do a comparison one day to test the JSB vs AA vs H&N in my Crown or Daystate to find out which is the best for my guns.

Hi class entertainment, thanks Plink! And my FX WC Mk3 likes the new 18's too.
