H&N Baracuda 5.50 mm Airgun Pellets (21.14 Grain / 200 Count)

The H&N Baracuda is a world-renowned, heavy-weight diabolo pellet that has set the industry standard for high-power Pre-Charged Pneumatic (PCP) and robust spring-piston air rifles. Featuring a classic round-nose (domed) aerodynamic shape, this pellet is engineered specifically for deep penetration, high-impact energy retention, and tightly grouped precision at extended distances up to 50 meters and beyond.

The defining characteristic of the Baracuda is its unique aerodynamic design combined with a special lead alloy composition. By minimizing drag and reducing lead fouling inside the rifling, it achieves an exceptionally consistent muzzle velocity and a remarkably flat downrange trajectory. Sized precisely at 5.50 mm, it fits standard .22 caliber barrels tightly to eliminate gas bypass and optimize compression. At a substantial 21.14 grains, it delivers tremendous shocking power upon impact, making it a favorite among field target competitors and serious hunters looking for maximum knockdown capability.
