I've used silver jets and arrows many times without success.  Well, silver jets worked very well in an R7, but that's about it. 

What about the hornet and "newer" school pointed pellets?  Are they worth considering?  The domed pellets have always worked better for me, such as Kodiak, FTT, and CPs.

I'm pretty sure I remember reading that someone tested the Predator Polymag pellets and got extremely good accuracy.  But, I can't remember where I read the post, who the author was, which rifle or even what caliber was involved (am I helping yet??  LOL).  Wait...

I did a Google search just now and found this video.  It might be interesting to you, I don't know.  Since the replies aren't exactly beating down your door yet, at least it's a place to start.

Looks like someone already answered the question some time ago:

The hornet seems like a well designed pellet that costs a lot of money.  However, accuracy is king so I'll have to stick to same game plan for the last 30 years.
