How to get even with bounty hunters?

I have some trouble with bounty hunters at the moment. According to the reputation data their enemies are all the criminals. I blasted loads of them out of the sky by now (junkers, rogues, outcasts, xenos) but there seems to be no change in my reputation with them. Further i couldn't find someone taking a bribe to fix my rep. Looks like i should have realized first that bounty hunters are present at almost every installation and that it is a very bad idea to mess with them.

Try the Freeport stations, almost always someone there willing to bribe your rep with both the pirates and the hunters. That's where I go to get mine fixed, takes too long just killing criminals. Bounty hunters seem to be especially responsive to you killing Corsairs though, that seemed to move my rep up the quickest with them.

Shooting Xenos almost always helps to improve your rep with anyone
I joined formation with a BH patrol and helped them kill criminals.
That cleared my rep with them.

Go to west point station and pick up a couple of missions from them on the job board, that should set you right.

Ok thanks. I will try that.

@Peet-Air: when i said that i have trouble with them, i really meant it. Did you ever try to fly in formation with someone who wants to see you dead?

Just remember the rate of exchange for Xeno scalps. If that faction specifically lists Xeno's as an enemy its like 4:1 to change the rep. I.E. to change the rep either way,good or bad kill one of say junkers, it takes 4 xeno kills to undo the damage. Also 4:1 the other way to get in good w/ the Junkers. For those not specifically listed as having Xenos as enemies, its a higher to much higher ratio depending on how much contact they'd be having with xeno anyways.
