hello to everyone

thanx for pics,my next questions are,do they expand reliably,what velocity is your 25 cal rifle driving them at?the barracuda hollow points i have look like the same pellet,but without the cross hatching,dont really know if they expand as the 22 rifle i have used them in has enuf power to drive them right thru everything i have shot with them,into the ground behind the target so those i did recover were munted by impact with ground,but going on comparisions of damage caused by simialler weght pellets and thehollow point versions,the hollow point did more damage,so logical to assume the hollow points were opening up to some degree i guess,use 14,3gr crosman pellets at times in same rifle and have chronoed them at just over 1000fps and i know they definatly expand in fact they disintergrated as only ever find bitz of them but thats got lot to do with the high velocity i think ,have seen some good reports on the pellets you using and them expanding but one ones said at what velocity,velocity got lot to do with how well a hollow point projectile expands as far as lead bullets go and there been lot pulished data on lead bullet performance particually regarding handguns,as velocitys from handguns are very simialler to airguns the results should be very simialler i would think and pellets lot more fragile than lead bullets,would be very useful if pellet manufacturers published the data from their test results in more detail for us to read,maybe some us could get together and do some testing of our own as a project and put results up on here,easy enuf to make a balistic gell as test medium i as well as few others have a chrono and would be interested in doing such a project.

Finally, here are some pics of the rabbit and cat taken with Barracuda Hunter Extreme .25cal

Hello Mike, Barracuda Hunter Extremes are my most popular pellets. My .177 rifles love them as well as my .25cal. They definitely do the job and hit like a hammer. The cat inshot yesturday was the first cat with this rifle and when it ran off after the shot, i reloaded ready for a follow up shot but never needed it. They are very accurate too. My advise to you is try them out and let me know how you find them, im guessing they will become one of your favorites very quickly too.

Ive tried to upload a photo but its not working

I got 1 rabbit yesterday at 40m and a pesky wild cat that ive been stalking on and off for the last 6 months. I finally got this from 30m this morning. Both taken with my Hatsan 125 sniper .25cal, using H&N Barracuda Hunter Extreme pellets. The cat managed another 10m before it expired.
