Looking for people's suggestions on the best pellet for this gun. I have tested quite a few pellets and it seems the JSB 25.39's and the JSB 33.95's are the most accurate out of this gun. I haven't tried the Mark II's nor have I tried the H&N Barracuda Hunter extremes 28 grain.
Anything anybody's tried that seems accurate? I have tried the crow magnums, the H&N Field trophy (19 grain), EunJinn 42 grains, Grizzlies, GTO's and nothing shoots as accurately as the JSB pellets...
Anyone's experience would be welcome!

In my condor SS in .25 I use 31 grain H&N barracuda. I can take out tree rats out to 75 yards all day long and beer caps at 35 yards. In my talon SS in .22 I use Crossman 14.3 dome they are good and best of all cheap.
-
I second the barracudas ! They have a great BC, great quality and offered in different head sizes.

I've found every gun of mine that shoots JSB Exact Heavies well also shoots H&N Sniper Magnums well. They have similar profiles and the H&Ns are real beasts.
Might be worth exploring them to see if they perform.

John my friend you need to forget all about pellets and
turn the power up on your gun and find the right bullet
then it is a matter of never looking at a pellet ever again .

I like that idea, Dale. How do I tirn the power up? Shoots 33.95 jsbs at 745 fps on highest setting...

I recall that Jimmy's brother had a Airforce Talon that had a upgraded valve
and man that thing made some power , we shot a lot of bullets one day and
it like one that was a 32 grain HP at 100 yards it did a 1/2" group unfortunately
I had very few of those bullets with me his Talon was shooting 980 somewhere .

Wow. 1/2" at 100. Awesome. I'll have to research Airforce tuning and upgrades. I'm really happy with it, but I do want a bullet gun. Thanks for the info Beard #1. If you're out ther, GO GET EM! -Beard #2.
