With all those gun thread about I'd like to ask whats your favorite pellets you use?

I have been super pleased with Diablo exact. Now however 1/4 way through my first tin of .177 Super Point Extra Airgun Rifle Pistol Pellets, have found them to be very accurate at close range 10m and only costing 6 pounds of ebay.

Amazing. Half price of diablo exact which are top of the game like D 14 cooler.
 
I used to use the TAC-2 tin pellet from Bob Ruggles in my pistols when I was shooting practical pistol. Very good, very accurate and very clean, perfect for PP.
 
I used to shoot close on around 1000 pellets per day when I was younger. I tried a lot of different pellets and the ones I found to be excellent value and very accurate were "Wasp" the purple tin, not the red... they weren't as good.

Also, Accupell, but they were slightly heavier as they have a solid head, so were good at close range, not so much long range. Wasp however was a couple of quid cheaper and was good at both short and long range.
 
I like the way you felt the need to clarify the content of the thread in the title, right after stating what it was about ;) :p
 
Accupells for long range hunting, Matchpells in my second short range air rifle. Nothing has ever come as close accuracy wise as accupells though.
 
JSB Exacts in 4.51mm for my 1.77 Airwolf and Accupells for my .22 custom S200/Ultra Ratter.
 
Used to use Bisley Magnums.... Sure the trajectory was more like artillery fire but it had stopping power :p
 
Using Air Arms Diabolo Field .22 16gr 5.52mm pellets with my HW100 PCP and JSB Exact Diabolo .177 8.44gr 4.52mm pellets for my Air Arms Pro Sport springer :)

I do have some Piledrivers (30gr 5.52mm) for the PCP and boy are they fun to use - as Richie says they do take one heck of a parabolic trajectory but they've got some serious kick (even though they are meant for FAC PCPs).
 
eBay buy a sample pack
As some air pistol / air rifles can be pellet fussy

My .22 97k loves heavy magnums
My ultra .177 loves superdones
My hk100k loves h&n field & trophy

When you can group 5 pence size hole at 35yds
You know your rifle loves them
 
Crosman AccuPell .22 pellets. Use them in my crummy chinese air rifle and my gramps 1968 BSA Airsporter, fantastic bit of kit :)

What pellets does your HW45 like? Is it a .177?

I hope they like the pellets I listed above as I have loads of them and am getting a HW45 soon.
