Title: pellet suggestions 97k .22
Post by: uglymike on September 27, 2015, 12:49:01 PM
Just converted my 97K .22 to a 12ft/lb rifle with the Macari kit/seal. I have on hand AA 13.4gr, JSB RS 13.4 gr, AA 16 gr, H&N FTTs 14.6 in 5.53, 5.54MM, JSB 18.1 gr, RWS 14.5gr, and H&N Sport 13.4gr wadcutters. Have run a couple hundred of the H&N wadcutters through just to get things seated, and it's shooting those surprisingly well @25yrds. The only thing I can eliminate outright is the RWS Superdomes, hasn't liked them since day 1. I'm just going to bench shoot with it.

Did the rifle have any preferences before being changed to 12 fpe?  If it's new you might try H&N FTT 5.55 or 5.54mm as many report these larger head sizes doing well in HW .22's.  The RWS Superdome is a pellet looking for an air rifle that can shoot it well.  Wadcutter pellets are good for shorter distance shooting.  Stick to round head pellets.

Currently my 12ftlb HW95 likes JSB RS.
