Daisy Max Speed, .177 Reviews

Steel ball tip, and the light weight.

Please polish them up a bit at the factory.

They need to be washed before use, but not really a big deal. A great punch for the money.

Got a bird in the eye with these. Using my 12 year old crossman 760.

Don't know why the lead part looks so chalky.

The steel tip ejects on impact most of the time.

Pellets are clean and reasonably free of lead dust and other debris. The pellets are mfg. in Spain and so is my rifle. The pellets are consistent in their grouping which seems to mean that the quality control is far ahead of others. At 750 fps, these pellets will take down most barn yard varmints at distance of 50 feet.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it".

PyramydAir has always had them in stock and ship right away.

An update here ... I have since found several pellets to be bigger or smaller than the average. A few were noticably bigger and had to be pressed pretty hard to be inserted into my Beeman RS2's barrel.

More uniformity in the size of pellets.

I finally used these on my 30 yard range with some very strange results ... from 23 yards to 30 yards the groups opened up from 3/4 of an inch to 3+ inches. Many were keyholed on the target so obviously they became unstable in flight. Perhaps because of the Beeman's power. They still shoot very well in my Daisy 008 and Crosman 357.

The looks, the consistancy, the penetration and for sure the price. My rifle, a Beeman RS2 is sighted in for 30 yards with Beeman 10.65 Kodiac Match pellets. These seem to hit about an inch low to point of aim, which kind of surprised me as they are 1.5 grains lighter.

Maybe the container. It is cute but a pellet gets jambed in the opening from time to time. Not a big deal really ...

I just shot a 3/4" group at 23 yards with my Beeman RS2. I wasn't able to use my usual 30 yard range and had to rig a rest out of cinder block. I wasn't completely comfortable but found out what I needed to know, these pellets are accurate out of this gun. Also they shoot real good out of my Crosman 357 and Daisy 008. All in all, a darn good all round pellet. I will test these under better conditions at 30 yards and get back. One more thing ... Pyramyd still #1!!!

Very inexpensive wadcutter pellets of about 7.5 grains weight. Reasonably good finish, short skirts, few deformations.

Unfortunately, there is significant size variance. In the Beeman P17, Benjamin Trail and Ruger Blackhawk in which I have used them, few fit snugly, most fit loosely and some fall straight through the barrel from the breech in the course of loading.

Grouping is much coarser and fliers much more frequent than with Beeman coated, Crosman competition and RWS Basic wadcutters. The flight of some of these Daisies is downright erratic.

While the price was right, the quality was not there for 10m target shooting. Might be okay for plinking large items such as plastic bottles. I have relegated them to break-in shooting for new airguns, for which purpose they get the job done and are cheaper than the other pellets mentioned above.

Not recommended except for break-in shooting.

They are very accuate and have very good penatration the cost is very good

nothing

give them a try

the steel tips and the weight. i tested them by shooting at some soft/warm duct seal and they dont just penetrate well but actually begin expanding like a hollow point once the ball come loose

the container. a lot of mine were really deformed i think from shaking around. change the gimicky container and add more per tin

i ordered these just for fun not expecting much but was SHOCKED at how crappy they looked. covered in oxidation and lots of damaged skirts. i uploaded some pics. take a look

Nice flat trajectory, accurate,good hunting pellet,

nothing

If your gun is set for crosman ultramagnum .177 10.5 gr. with good groups then these are tac drivers.I can hit a pebble at 75 ft or a small bird at 100ft with open sights.Nice long flat trajectory..plus the penetrstion.too expensive for plinking me thinks

Excellent penetration. Less expensive than similar steel penetrators. Accuracy averaged 5/8 at 10 meters with Crossman springer with best of 5/16.

wieght varied +/- 0.2 gn., size varied by .002. Alot of lead dust. Found average of one unfinished pellet per 100.

Overall, I liked the performance and purchased another 1000 for plinking. If you're looking for an "AP" round that will shoot through light steel at 950 fps, this is a great bang for the buck.

The Steel Tip!

Improved Accuracy would be nice.

These aren't the most accurate pellets I've ever shot. But, they are GREAT, on Glass!

they are very consistent for accuracy

they're good pellets for the money they have good shape i suppose. And i really like the tin and i'm keeping it for other pellets

they have to much led dust and it would be nice if you could make a 200 tin for the same price.

get these i don't think you'll be dissapointed.

nothing

the quality is horrible

these are just more expensive per pellte gamo rockets

Surprise this pellet was accurate in my gamo whisper. My first 10 shots where in a nickel size bull's eye at 10 yards, before I got a flyer. nice weight

cleaner better quality control more refined larger count

It's funny how some pettets work in some guns and not in others accuracy is a must this pettet gives it to me with good penetration

this was the first kind of pellet I ever used I realy liked the penatration and volocity it had

nothing

I would definetly buy this pellet for penitration because I shot it through a 1/4 inch of hard plastic and it made a huge hole.

This is actually a good hunting pellet but it has NOT been represented well. It is comparable to the Gamo Rocket in both design and weight but slightly cheaper. It is not designed for Max Speed and it does NOT weigh 7.1 grains. I weighed them and they average approximately 9.1 grains. They have excellent penetration due to the steel tip. It appears to have some sort of dry lubricating coating on the outside

The weird packaging and they need to provied better info on their product.

If you want something for occasional hunting this is great. The price is cheap since the package is small and you might be pleasantly surprised.

Great price, accuracy and penetration.

Nothing.

They work great in the powerline 008 and crosman 1077.

Just thts i'ts in a plastic tiube that you can twist and the bellets pour out. Then u can travrl around with it instead of having tin cans rattling around...

more ammo, and less lead dust!!

dont put these in a crossman. I prchased these for my crossman 1088 and the alwats jam my gun. I'm gonna purchase a daisy next, maybe things will change
