Baracuda Power | 5.5mm | 21.14gr | 200pcs | H&N

H&N Baracuda Power – heavy pellets for long-distance precision

These 5.5mm H&N Baracuda Power pellets with a weight of 21.14 grains are developed for shooters who strive for maximum precision at distances of 75 to 100 metres. The domed design ensures excellent aerodynamic properties, keeping these projectiles stable during flight. Thanks to the copper coating, they are harder than traditional lead pellets, resulting in better penetration and less deformation on impact. These heavy pellets require powerful PCP air rifles from 40 joules upwards that can effectively propel the weight.

Our experience from the Shogun team

In practice, these Baracuda Power pellets show their value especially at distances from 75 metres. The aerodynamic domed design keeps the projectile stable, even in changing weather conditions. The copper coating significantly reduces friction in the barrel, contributing to consistent muzzle velocities and tight groupings. With powerful PCP systems, these pellets retain their energy excellently over the entire trajectory, resulting in predictable paths up to 100 metres.

Technical features in practice

With a calibre of 5.5mm and a weight of 21.14 grains, these belong to the heavier projectiles in their class. The domed pellet shape provides optimal balance between aerodynamics and energy retention. The lead projectile with copper coating combines the density of lead with increased hardness. Each pack contains 200 pieces, sufficient for extensive shooting sessions. The substantial weight requires an air rifle with enough power to give the pellet the correct initial velocity – a chronograph is useful to gain insight into the energy output of your specific setup.

Who is this air rifle ammunition suitable for?

These heavy pellets are ideal for experienced shooters with powerful PCP air rifles who regularly shoot at distances from 75 metres. The weight of 21.14 grains requires an air rifle with at least 40 joules to utilise the full potential. Precision enthusiasts who value consistent performance and minimal projectile deformation will find the Baracuda Power a reliable choice. Testing different grains is always worthwhile, as every air rifle has unique preferences for optimal accuracy.
