cheap

not as accurate as gamo PDA gold

it's accuracy is just alright

They have a screw on lid.

They are very inaccurate out of my 1377. They shot high and to the left every time. As soon as I switch pellets I hit dead center so it is not me or the gun. I think they fit too loose to be accurate.

Dirty as any other pellet. They flatten out poorly from what I can tell.

These are just like their big brother in .22! Well made and a clean pellet. I haven't found a damaged pellet yet. Cans, bottles and especially squirrels don't stand a chance when im shooting these! Accuracy it great and they are one of the easiest to load in my action pistols too.

Nothing.

Wonderful universal pellets of all the ones I have. It might explain why im always running out.

Extremely accurate and deadly when used with a Benjamin Nitro XL air rifle... Shot and killed 12 squirrels with one shot kills...The hollow point really creates a large exit wound knocking them down quickly.

quantity, sizing, consistency, fit in barrel. screw on lid.

as always, cheaper is better. when crosman puts the lids on their tins, they over tighten them, and i have to use two of those rubber jar openers to open it.

these fit very snug in my crosman phantom's barrel, on the destroyers and regular hunting pellets, if you put one in the barrel, and close it the wrong way, the pellets may fall out. not with the crosman premier hollow points!!! also, these things are like lazers. pest birds dont stand a chance!

Accurate in both my rifles. They seem very consistant, and although I have not hunted with them yet, I feel confident in these. I tried Daisy pellets in my new Daisy 880 thinking that it might shoot best with them. I was so unhappy with the Daisy pellets that I ran out and bought these based on the reveiws at this website. I am very pleased so far. Night and day difference.

Nothing

I can't think of anything major at the moment.

The 500 tin, and the packaging from PyramydAir. Good size and weight for both my rifles, one target and one high power. Made of lead.

less messy coating. Crosman should wipe them down.

Althoug not a wadcutter, they performed as well as the RWS Meisterkrugle 8.2g wadcutter offhand, sitting, and and on the bench with my Daisy Avanti 853CM at 10m. When I use other wadcutters I need to adjust the sights when shooting offhand. These pellets need no adjusting to hit the 10x ring at 10m. These Crosman Premiers also work well with a break barrel nitro piston high power.

Very accurate and lethal with squirrels. Nine squirrels down, all took only one shot, even the mid-body shots would kill them quickly enough that they dropped out of the trees.

nothing

I used these same pellets when I was zeroing the scope even though they tear up the target more than wadcutters. These seem more consistent than the Crosman Destroyers.

very good on all .177 mags excellent accuracy

nothing

beware do not confuse with the 7.9 crosman super points they are a lemon.

everything

nothing

i shoot a gamo hunter extreme. set the target up at 83 yds. bullseye. tried all of the usual pellets and this one as a last resort.

they shot well out of my remmy nitro piston, 2 tins came free with my new gun

nothing

they shot good not great but good. decent pellet good price

everything!

nothing

these pellets are really good for practice.

I like this 177 pellet--I have taken 10-12 squirrels with it. I am using the Crosman 1377.

nothing

get the DAISY sight (about $10) it makes it a very accurate handgun

I asked the Pyramyd Air phone representative for advice on what ammo I should try for a specific purpose in a particular gun. Success! This ammo killed a crow at about 30-40 yards with my not-so-powerful Crosman Model 66. Wow!

Asking for advice from Pyramyd Air really works.

Very accurate, several same-hole-shots at 25 yards. A few "wild" strays, but this is maybe 1/5 shots and only by a couple of inches. Penny sized groups at 25 yards are easy.

The phrase "hunting pellet" on the tin. Maybe it's because I'm using a Crosman 2100 with about 600 fps, and maybe it's because all my shots have been at 20+ yards, but these things have been woefully underpowered. I can't get the best shot placement on starlings and sparrows, but even with upper-body or head shots that have them plummit from their perch they get up and fly away. A whole different story than the predators I usually use.

I guess with good shot placement or more fpe these would be good for hunting, because I did take out a crow with one shot at 20 yards and I think the larger body just allowed for better shot placement.

I have shot a lot of expensive pellets (Gamo, Beeman, RWS, etc.), and these are by far the most accurate. Crosman really did a good job making these.

Maybe make them a little cleaner, because everytime I pick one up, I get lead dust on my fingers.

These pellets don't expand much, but I find that if you hit a squirrel in the head, you don't need much expansion.

Price was the best. Good quility not to many damaged ones in the container. I shoot these pellets through 4 differant air rifles and they all like them.Perfect weight for shooting at 45 yards

nothing....

I'm shooting 177 cal through 4 different break barrel air rifles. 2 Gamo break barrels Varmit hunter & Delta youth. 1 ruger Air Hawk break barrel and 1 break barrel crosman storm XL. And all shoot with the same placement 1/2 inch groups.

Cheap, about $5 a tin at any local stores, accurate, fits in the barrel pretty tight

Consistency. Some fit fairly snug and some are a little looser, i get 2 different groups on paper depending on how tight they fit. Normally not too bad but these last couple tins seemed a lot more inconsistent maybe just a bad batch. They hardly expand so maybe a larger expansion cup.

Great all around pellet.

The accuracy of these was almost equal to a higher priced match pellet but these are cheap and work well in almost any gun.

Very Dirty Pellet less lead dust would be nice so I wouldnt have to clean my barrel as often and the I tested these in ballistics gel and found them to have very little "expansion" so I would like for Crosman to make that expansion cup a little wider for more devastation on small game that would make these a VERY nice pellet.

These Dont Expand Very Much At all.

it has a twist off lid , not just a pull of like other brands

make the pellet cleaner

i use this in my CROSMAN 1077 and do get a dime size group at 26 feet . as i said above the pellets seem to have a great deal of lead dust ! when you load this pellet your hand will get DIRTY . IN MY OPINION CHILDREN SHOULD NOT HANDLE THEM ! ! we all know how little hands get in there mouth .
