Skenco UltraShock .177, .177 Reviews

Accuracy is minute of chipmunk. There are some windows around so I got these because of the giant hollow point. They only shoot thru about 25% of a squirrels nugget. Body shots on squirrels stay in the squirrel. Shoots thru munks with extreme prejudice.

Ore consistency would improve accuracy. I would never buy another .177 pellet.

Accuracy is good...not great
Consistency is good...not great
Penetration is good...not great...overpenetration isnt much of an issue

Will mushroom if driven over 900 f.p.s.

Head of the pellet is under size.

In my Benjamin Rogue 177 gas piston break barrel, these gave disappointing accuracy. Pellets dont fit chamber tightly.

I like the pellet design and the deep hollowpoint it has. Nice screw on lid and pellets looked clean and uniform with little or no damaged ones. Did some 10 meter target work wit these but have not had a chance to see how they do out doors with one of my rifles. Nice pellets to add to my collection

Would like to see more pellets for the price. (but then, that is always a given)

These pellets do not tend to over penetrate. The large hollow point ensures quick expansion. Accuracy is fine. You wont win any contests but they hit hard and transfer maximum inch lbs to the unfortunate critter on the receiving end.

The skirt is thin and easily deformed.

Be gentle when loading. The skirt is really thin.

the depth of this hollow point none other equal's that is why they are less grains than the JSB Match Ultra Shock... which is 10.34 grains. I am shooting those today and will do a comment on these 2 side by side.

not one thing just hope they put them in the screw top tin as they did with the .22 & .25 cal. I shot the last of my Skenco Untra shocks have more coming in the mail this Monday.

Make sure you get head or heart lung shots with these or those little squirrels will travel right back in the fat holes and continue killing your 100 year old oak trees. And the other thing is you can't eat them if they crawl back in the holes.

These pellets work very well in my Benjamin Titan NP. They are very accurate and consistent. When hunting, they make quick clean kills.

The usual, more per container, and a metal screw on lid.

I wash and lube my pellets.

-really liked the tin had a secure lid. -size and shape, no bent skirts

nothing

shot "ok" out of my stoeger x20s

I'm really liking the accuracy so far after one tin. Seem to hit my metal targets hard.

The typical; more for the current cost ;)

I'm running these out of my Crosman TR77 NPS.

Packaged well foam lined plastic container with screw on lid. Have not see one bad one in 2 tins so far. Bought these for pest control and they do the trick. Tuned my Talon SS with these for 880 FPS. They have a tendency to fragment a bit, and deliver a ton of energy on impact. A good pellet if you cannot get a head shot but can get to the heart lung area it.

More in the package.

At 880 FPS my groups at 30 yards open up to about 1.5 inches under 30 yards they group around .75 to 1 inch. Good enuff for hunting not suited for plinking or target practice.

Well made.

Can't get them to group at all. Not accurate enough to hunt with. Will probably just throw them away.

I use these in my Nitro venom Dusk .177. My rifles does NOT like these.

they really mushroom on the target

put more in the can

Very accurate in the air rifles I use. Consistent in size and quality. Its in the weight range that powerful air rifles like.

Nothing

The most accurate pellet I have ever used is the AA 10.3. This pellet is every bit as accurate. They go into the same hole. Shot them thru Gamo SS IGT, Hammerli X2, Ruger Air Hawk and Mendoza RM200. The Mendoza grouped best with the Gamo a very close 2nd.

Heavy hollow point. Good accuracy.

If these don't work for you, change the pellet type/weight/brand. Airguns can be very sensitive to pellet diameter, shape, and weight. Especially bores with high round counts.

From my guns these are accurate enough to hunt with out to 25-30yds, but I wouldn't use these for an accuracy contest.

The hollowpoint is so DEEP!!! NO hollow point PELLETS IS MORE DEEP THAT THIS!!! Expansion is outstanding. Accuracy is very good for my Crosman Nitro Venom Dusk.

Many Factors independently of the ammo affect a review of an ammo.

You should consider BEFORE YOUR REVIEW,
-the type of air rifle (spring piston, gas piston, CO2),
-the model,
-the power of your air rifle,
-the experience of the shooter,
-the fine adjustment of the scope (the same temperature that the ammo test, wavering...),
-the wind (a wind of 30 MPH perpendicularly of your shot at 100 yard will deviat the shot for 1.5 inch in the wind direction ),
-consistency shot after shot of air rifle handling
and finaly if this ammo is made for your rifle specifically.
You can not say that the ammo is good or not just because you hit or not the target shot after shot....take care before write a review and considers the factors listed above.

super DEEP hollowpoint,reminds me of the old .38 tubular hollowpoints that i think they banned.these things realy open up on impact and have enough weight for mid range hunting.

they are a bit sloppy in my 850 air mag clip and you have to be careful loading them due to the long throat and short skirt,would be better in a single shot.

my 850 shoots them great to 25 yards but after that grouping opens up,still accurate enough for out to 35 yards on small gophers and chipmunks.pellets are very uniform and well made and they open up to .25 cal on impact which should be realy devastating to rodents and the like.all and all they should make a pretty good hunter but not pin point accurate

Energy transfer like crazy...I knocked over a 2 liter filled with water with a. .177?! Punctured one side and not the other....all other hps went straight through. Decent accuracy up to 20yards

Many more per tin...no more plastic tins

These pellets are accurate and group nice at about 20 yards. I shot the top off a coke bottle With my gamo varmint hunter hp at about 20 yards.

More in a box

Nothing else for now
