Another straight to the point no bullshit video,well done Andy. I must say that anything with Sniper in the name I tend to sneer at.I did the cadre at Warminster in the 80's and have seen thousands of "snipers" since ,so I'm glad for this review as I would never have even given your overall winner a look.Always ready to listen to educated advice ,I'll be getting some soon. Cheers for your insight.
The problem with all these tests is: They only apply to that rifle in your hands. The same model, but just a different rifle could well preform differently and offer better or worse accuracy with another pellet. It is important for you all to do your own testing and not take this result as gospel ... Results will and do vary considerably.
Kind find the Sheet referenced above anywhere!! I approached each site above and did not find any sheet. I would appreciate a copy of the 0.177 and the .22 at High Power guns and target or hunting. Thanks
I have just done a similar pellet study using two sample pellet packs from Pellpax. Each pack contained twenty samples, bagged with twenty pellets, labelled with manufacturer Name, pellet Diameter and Grain. What I found was some bagged were mislabelled but having two packs it was simple to correct. I took eight pellets at random from each bagged at a time and measured the Diameter and Grain. Then applied Statistical result for ALL data collected. The total data output was then placed in order using statistical Graph called ‘Box & Whisker’. For those not familiar, the graph draws a rectangular box height being longer than width. The box will indicate number pellets within nominal. From top and bottom of the box vertical leaders will show max/min result. It was interesting to note that most were above nominal Diameter 4.5mm, but a few did fall below nominal. Now that I have just received my first springer, I shall measure the FPS and Joule from random samples to provide the same statistical data. When it stops raining.
Aside from being a great video, you forgot to note that this test is true for this particular rifle with this particular barrel. These pellets can give completely different accuracy results with different rifles and barrels.
What pellet works in that gun and barrel best , wouldn’t necessarily work the best in my gun and barrel , ,, I have a gun that doesn’t group well with any of the good brand expensive pellets , for what ever reason it likes the cheap Gamo pellets, cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧
So only Facebook Subscribers get to see the results? Very, very disappointing! In general, you are my favorite channel host...but requiring the Facebook subscription knocks you out totally. Regrets. At least SOME results could have been included here in your notes.
Awesome content on all video, the best part is I can relate to you. Analytical and practical, first class!!! Btw 4.52 jab Diablo are best in my HW100KT every time 🤩. Field and target uses 👍🏻😎 Poly mag shorts aren’t bad through mine tbh!
I was very surprised how good an old tin of Sniper Lights were in my Impact M3 (sub 12) probably the best I've used at paper targets only at 60m even on a breezy day, I think H&N have stopped making them now though as I just can't find any these days.
i used to buy whatever was cheap, but then i got a cp2 for some more "serious" target shooting and found out that thing only likes rws pellet or some gammo pellets, it doesnt even load the h&n or jsb from all sorts, they all jam :S. and for the rws it doesnt matter the cheap ones or the expensive ones, they all work. and my other guns also work with them also so yeah i only buy rws now.
When I was a boy I had none of this trouble. Air gun pellets were BSA and very occasionall you would see, but never actually buy, Wasp. Problem of selection solved.
I use the jsb match diablo in177, 8.44gr size 4.5mm. I've just bought and they'd some H,N barracuda Hunter extreme Size 4.5mm and 9.57gr. My question is these two pellets are the same size just different wights so why does the jsb fit nice in my barrel but the H.N Barracuda's a very tight fit so much so it's an effort to push it in compared to the jsb ???
Well as I don't use facebook totally pointless for me?, you could have put a shot of chart in the video that we could see without all the lettering over it?
All I can say,,KNOW YOUR RIFLE AND PELLETS, and practice..Springers after 2-300 shoots will perform better.If I can shoot matchstick at 10 meters so can you.All my guns are sub 500fps I got no license…Does anybody shoots Daisy Red Rider BB gun?

Your now my “go to person “ thanks Andy. Rudy, in Phoenix Arizona.

Epic tease video. Sadistic! Where are the test results? I looked. I got a screen grab but data is obscured by "Thanks for watching." .

i think you should re-watch the video.........he said that ....always one ..i bet you would be a great laugh in a life raft....
Was shocked how many keyholed the target, I actually will watch it again to soak up the info, immediately, thanks for the test Andy!
Kind find the Sheet referenced above anywhere!! I approached each site above and did not find any sheet. I would appreciate a copy of the 0.177 and the .22 at High Power guns and target or hunting. Thanks
I greatly appreciate your cander and demeanor in presenting this subject! Keep it up!!
Thanks for doing the review Andy. Can we have a link to the spreadsheet results please.
Results at 8:51 (but be quick to hit pause!)
Winner at 3:41 (9 and 15 mm group spreads over 4 and 5 shots)
Where are the results posted? Do not see a link.

Andy, wow!..... the general target accuracy between your .22 verses .177 pellet test, well.... is astounding
So what was the best pellet? A bit confusing, did I miss something?
The H&N sniper light I believe.
@@Wayne-hs6gm 😂
8:54 ?
Brilliant video! Yet again, the polymags perform surprisingly well 👍

So funny watching this.
Can see you following the script behind the camera
;-)
Great to see how much you have come on.
Awesome content on all video, the best part is I can relate to you.

Btw 4.52 jab Diablo are best in my HW100KT every time 🤩. Field and target uses 👍🏻😎
Poly mag shorts aren’t bad through mine tbh!
What a beautiful rifle. 👍🏻
Be interesting to see some competition pellets .
Be also interesting to see QYS . I'm loving them in my HW100 .
I was very surprised how good an old tin of Sniper Lights were in my Impact M3 (sub 12) probably the best I've used at paper targets only at 60m even on a breezy day, I think H&N have stopped making them now though as I just can't find any these days.
So what’s the final ranking then?
i used to buy whatever was cheap, but then i got a cp2 for some more "serious" target shooting and found out that thing only likes rws pellet or some gammo pellets, it doesnt even load the h&n or jsb from all sorts, they all jam :S. and for the rws it doesnt matter the cheap ones or the expensive ones, they all work. and my other guns also work with them also so yeah i only buy rws now.
My best 177 hunting pellets is the baracuda match and the baracuda hunter extreme them shoot well in my gamo swarm magnum 10x gen2
Andy, very informative video as usual, Thank you.
Could you do a spring piston rifle , pellet test on 2-3 guns? Thx andy.🤘
Hi Andy. I enjoyed your video
When I was a boy I had none of this trouble. Air gun pellets were BSA and very occasionall you would see, but never actually buy, Wasp. Problem of selection solved.
Watched your intro = instant subscribe!
Where is the link?
I use the jsb match diablo in177,
8.44gr size 4.5mm.
I've just bought and they'd some H,N barracuda Hunter extreme
Size 4.5mm and 9.57gr.
My question is these two pellets are the same size just different wights so why does the jsb fit nice in my barrel but the H.N Barracuda's a very tight fit so much so it's an effort to push it in compared to the jsb ???
because those pellets come in 4.49 / 4.5 / 4.51 / 4.52 / 4.53 .. .
Well as I don't use facebook totally pointless for me?, you could have put a shot of chart in the video that we could see without all the lettering over it?
I went to that dapper air guns an they tired selling me a 16mm pard as a 12mm then had to wait a week for my money back
Another great video.
All I can say,,KNOW YOUR RIFLE AND PELLETS, and practice..Springers after 2-300 shoots will perform better.If I can shoot matchstick at 10 meters so can you.All my guns are sub 500fps I got no license…Does anybody shoots Daisy Red Rider BB gun?
Were did you get the holster in the promo video as I would love one let me know thanks john
john pickering hi John, if you mean the belt holster in the ‘click’ video, simply and eBay find and pretty inexpensive. Best regards. Andy.
You hear the wind in the mic and see the pellets move to the left
