Pellets that are designed for hunting are supposed to impart as much of their energy as they can in the least amount time. It is this kinetic energy that causes shock and humane kills. In this video I will test six of the most popular hunting style all lead pellets buy shooting them into Clear Ballistics 20% Gelatin.

I video it from three different cameras and you will be amazed by the results.

The Airgun used to fly these pellets is the Huben K1 G5 in .22 Caliber. I used this airgun because of its huge power profile and ease of power adjustment. Even with this airgun trying to fly all the pellets at the same velocity proofed futile but the results of each pellet were very informative.

I will be follow up with a video that shows the grouping consistency of these six. The problem is that pellet accuracy has a lot to with the pellet and barrel relationship. Pellet "A" may shoot terrible in airgun "1" but shoot fabulous in airgun "2". We will see what result we get.
