Maybe this is the new free form design where one cuts off a hunk of lead wire and jams it in the chamber and crosses toes and fingers and hopes it hits something? It's like Cracker Jacks — one in every box (tin).
Perhaps a new H&N pellet design?

Yeah, just got 8 tins last week from PA and they run very heavy and have these extra tokens in the tins.

Gaaack! I have never, not ever, seen such from H&N. I hope that this is an extreme one off. I hope PA takes good care of you.

As bad as those look, I’m not sure they would group any worse than the tin sitting on my shelf 
Really though, I couldn’t find a single barrel that would group them acceptably for ~30yd pest control duty. Meanwhile the Hunter Extremes have worked very nicely in .177, .22, and .25.
Anyway yeah I hope the vendor will take care of replacing them.

I'm thinking of a bad series, totally unworthy of a major brand. Even the shape isn't right on all the pellets, a simple trimming won't give good results. The best thing to do, I think, is to ask for an exchange.

I run my cast pellets through my tumbler, but I don't think that would help much in this case.

First of all, I have to apologize for this mistake. It's a mystery to me how this could have been overlooked.
Please send me the pictures (especially of the bottom of the tin), the number of tins affected and your postal address to [email protected].
Thank you!

H&N are very good pellets and an upstanding company, especially monitoring this site for these types of issues.
Bravo to H&N!

That's really not necessary, but I do truly appreciate your concern for customers. Not enough were affected to worry about. It is nice to know this isn't a regular thing. I hope to be shooting H&N pellets and slugs for years to come. The run number is visible in the above picture if you want to check your samples.
