Wadcutters for Hunting
RWS figured out that, yes, wadcutters can be very effective as the preferred ammo at 10 to 15 yards IF you have the power.
Shooters think hunting animals is like tank warfare - and bagging the game or pest requires AP ammo (armor piercing). With the 760, good penetration is useful. The 760 is no Magnum spring gun.
Does the 760 have the hitting power to hunt a squirrel with a wadcutter? A ribcage hit on 7 to 8 pumps could work. Larger birds tend to have highly flexible rib cages that, from my experience on flank shots, can absorb shock from flat heads.
In my case, I have JSB heavy. I would use those in the field from my 760. At 15 yards, it's still a tight group.
M-4 vs. 760
My rifled M-4 made a successful night hunt. The dot sight, on-rail flashlight, and pellet magazine kept me from having to fumble for ammo. I shot Crosman Points 3 times. All hits.
The lack of a magazine would make the 760 more suitable for daytime hunting.

Crosman 7.4 Notas
▶️7 cargas para cazar a cualquier distancia hasta 15 yardas
▶️5 cargos por plinking preciso a 13 yardas y menos.
wadcutters para la caza
RWS descubrió que, sí, los wadcutters pueden ser muy efectivos como munición a 10-15 yardas SI tienes el poder.
Los tiradores piensan que cazar animales es como una guerra de tanques, y atrapar un juego requiere munición AP (perforante de armadura). Con el 760, una buena penetración es útil. El 760 no es un rifle de resorte Magnum.
¿El 760 tiene el poder de perforación para derribar una ardilla con un wadcutter? Una inyección en la caja torácica con 7 u 8 bombas podría funcionar. Las aves más grandes tienden a tener cajas torácicas muy flexibles que, en mi experiencia, cuando se disparan desde un lado, pueden absorber el impacto de las cabezas planas.
En mi caso, tengo JSB heavy. Los usaría en el campo desde mi 760. A 15 yardas, sigue siendo una precisión cercana.
