H&N makes quality pellets. They're clean, undamaged and reasonably consistent in size and weight. The new pellet tins have a screw-on top that is designed for stacking which makes storage much easier. If you’re looking to avoid exposure to lead, you may want to give this pellet a try. Dimensionally, it is the most consistent .22 caliber pellet that I've ever tested and it's incredibly accurate with my TX200. These tin pellets are considerably harder than lead and provide excellent penetration; however, there is little or no deformation to the pellet upon impact so less kinetic energy is transferred to the quarry. This is the only pellet that I use in my TX200 and I’ve taken armadillo, raccoon, skunks, possum, turkey and numerous other small game and birds. In my search for "the-one" pellet that gives me the best accuracy, I measure the head diameter, skirt diameter, and length of every pellet that I test. I then chronograph and calculate the Standard Deviation (SD). If the (SD) is not in the single digits 1-9, I don’t use that pellet for that air gun. This methodology works well and I highly recommend it. The following information is based on a 12 shot string with the Air Arms TX200. The numbers have been rounded and the *average is based on the sum of the velocity of the total number of shots. Test No.: 060715-BG, Location: Indoor, Temperature: 71º,Humidity: 41%, Elevation: 148ft, Ballistic Coefficient: 0.0135, Head Diameter: 5.50, Skirt Diameter: 5.70-5.71, Pellet Length: 8.23–8.25, High Velocity (fps): 814, Low Velocity (fps): 811, *Average Velocity (fps): 812, Extreme Spread (fps): 3, Average Deviation (fps): 1, Standard Deviation (fps): 1, High Energy (ft-lbs): 19, Low Energy (ft-lbs): 18. I've taken 6 chipmunks this year ranging from 21 to 23 yards. All six were killed with just one shot to the head. I do not recommend these pellets for magnum powered air guns. I've found that there is a loss of accuracy beyond 10 yards with more than 20ft/lbs of energy. If you are shooting in high winds a heavier pellet may be more appropriate.
