BSA SilverStar Hunting 4.5mm (.177) Pellets (x400)
£10.95
The BSA SilverStar Hunting Pellets are engineered for hunters seeking precision, power, and consistent performance at mid-range distances. Designed with a pinpoint tip and a small tapered cone, these pellets deliver deep impact and excellent expansion on target, making them a great choice for effective pest control up to 30 meters.
While the SilverStar excels in hunting scenarios, it is not ideal for long-range pest control or target shooting due to its design, which may produce a poor cutting pattern on paper targets.

- Pinpoint Tip: Ensures precise hits with excellent expansion on impact.
- Mid-Range Accuracy: Optimized for pest control at distances up to 30 meters.
- Reliable Quality: Crafted by BSA for hunters who demand accuracy and reliability.

Important Notes:
- Ballistic Coefficient numbers are approximate and may require adjustments for your specific airgun setup.

- For the most accurate weight measurements, we recommend using digital jewellery scales.
Recommendation:
The BSA SilverStar Hunting Pellets are a fantastic choice for hunters seeking consistent performance and expansion at mid-range distances. Ideal for pest control up to 30 meters, they ensure accurate, clean, and humane dispatch of quarry. However, they are less suitable for long-range or target shooting scenarios.
