copper pellets?

[wastrel]

Either I've just found these or it's the first time I've paid attention, anyone tried them?
yeah I know I could google them, but I like to get honest opinions from members I trust with real world experience.
thoughts appreciated.

I've been using the copper ones in .22 21grn same as the bis mag's the shoot fine and hit hard.
have not chronno'd yet but my thoughts they should be faster as they seem very slippery, if that makes any sense

Used the H&N ones in my .177TDR , and they do shoot hard and fast but! and there is a big but.
I sent my TDR in for a service with my chosen copper pellets and found that although my gun shoots really well, in fact better than me,
they were only producing -10ftlbs on the chrono whilst AA diablo and JSB's were up at the 11.5's .
So the desision was made to change over to lead but save the copper ones for the targets since i had 2,000+ in the drawer,
The only conclusion i could make regarding the difference in output was that the skirts on the copper ones were as hard as the rest of the pellet
and thus was not balooning to fit the barrel like its softer lead variety.
But don't let me put you off them as they do hit really hard but checking on the H&N web site they are recomended for 12ftlb guns up to 50m ranges.
