For the new 15 and 18 grain diabolos, is the lead hard like the FTT, Baracuda, or is it soft, similar to JSB pellets?
It's the same alloy that we use for the other pellets.

I wish H&N would bring back the .177 Sniper Magnum 14.97gr. Yeah, I know they didn't sell well and got a lot of bad posts about them.
However, I found that they shoot remarkable well in my Benjamin Fortitude Gen2 that is tuned to shoot CPUM 10.5 @ ~750fps.
Yeah, they may not be good for higher powered tunes, but they were very good/accurate/precise at the lower end, <750fps, for me anyway.
Oh well... Thanks for listening. (smile)
Does h&n have a 44 and 50 grain .30 pellet to compete with JSB's equivalent?
Thanks

Why are the 21gr pointed-type pellets called baracuda or baracuda match, and these domes are also called baracuda? Why? Besides that I've heard these shoot great!
That's a good question. Baracuda, Baracuda Match, Baracuda 15 and 18, Baracuda Power, Baracuda Green, Baracuda FT, Baracuda Light, ... and we also have the Baracuda Hunter and Baracuda Hunter Extremes, they don't have a round or pointed head at all! We are kind of obsessed with the name ...

Any future plans for a .25 pellet at 34 grains to compete with the JSB MkII's?

No, we have no plans for that at the moment.

How bout a 25.4gr .22 similar to JSBs MRD? With the demand for the MRDs, if you can make a similar pellet (weight/shape/bc) that shoots as well as the MRD you'd sell a bunch of them. ESPECIALLY if they were more consistent than JSB and didn't have the mandatory (for competition) sorting requirement.
In the works?

I'm interested in this as well. We need more options.
H&N, keep up the good work!
I finally found someone to bring your new Baracuda 15 and Baracuda 18 to Peru for me — and yes, their suitcase will be REALLY HEAVY with all the LEAD in it...!![]()
It's great that they both have weights of pellets that I am already shooting (15.89gr and 18.13gr).
➔ That way it's easy to switch between H&N and JSB without having to retune my guns!
And it's much easier to find H&N pellets in the stores than JSB.
Thumbs up, H&N!![]()
