Has anyone tried them who also uses jsb jumbo heavy for comparison?
Has anyone tried them full stop?
Seems from reviews they are ok, but when reading up on weight and pellet consistency the don't seem to be as good as jsb in the same weight.
After any info ppl have from use please

Hi Kruza, I've used Barracudas in my PCPs. They are a good long distance hunting pellet. I've also used JSBs which also perform well. I would happily use either. I haven't done any scientific comparison sorry. I only really shoot PCP nowadays so can't vouch for springer performance.

Cheers. Its about how the pellet preforms really and its shown consistency in your rifle, and if mine likes them sweet.
But the pellet should be good. Rifle likes the jsb.
Appreciate the feed back.
