$12.50/500 is the best price I have found, for these pellets. I have shot over 27,000 in the last 2 years.

I drive them at ~960 fps from HW100KT, FX Streamline. Kral Mega Marine, and Diana Stormrider 2. The Kral leads the choke area. requiring cleaning every few 100 to maintain accuracy.

FX doesn't seem to lead, and HW100 accuracy "face plants" every few hundred and is back to standard after a bore cleaner patch and a couple of dry ones.

The Mega improved a bit after bore polishing with JB Bore Cleaner, and will give it a further go with a couple of hundred more strokes of JB to see if that helps.

I seldom shoot the Kral or the Stormrider as they can't match the HW and FX at 100 meters and shooting more than 2 rifles adds to the confusion.

I rarely shoot the Storm and only keep it because it was the younger g-daughter's first shooting experience.

I have tried several H&N, Benjamins, and some others, but none shoot as well in my guns at distances beyond 60 meters. I need the velocity to move the silhouettes.

I bought one of the $35 chronographs from AliExpress and never use my Chrony. I find it invaluable for diagnosis, especially since it fits in the range box and is on hand when I need it.

Me too. I just hold it in front of the muzzle when the gun is on bags. No setting up on a tripod. Easy peasy. It has its own light source so it works indoors or outdoors. Todd Cooper aligned mine with his Chrony to compare readings. They were within 5 fps of each other.
