Things I liked:$23 seems like a lot to pay for 3 plastic disks and a ring but I can't imagine loading 8 pellets in these little cylinders one-by one by hand. I've shot about 1500 rounds in the two weeks I've owned my Walther CP88. It seats the pellets well into the cylinder which minimizes jams. I've had none in 1500 rounds. It's a real time

Things I liked:I'm enjoying the gun. I've fired about 1500 rounds in 2 weeks without a single jam. I use the Air Venturi Speedloader which seats all pellets well into the cylinder.
I've found that I can get 72 full power shots (9 cylinders) and 8 more lower power shots from one Crosman CO2 cartridge.
When bench shooting, I can tell

I've found that I can get 72 full power shots (9 cylinders) and 8 more lower power shots from one Crosman CO2 cartridge.
When bench shooting, I can tell the gun is pretty accurate. From 25 feet, I can keep most shots in the black of a 25 ft. rapid fire pistol target. Occasionally I get a flyer that I'm pretty sure is not my fault. The gun is heavier than I expected but seems to be well built. Out of the box, the trigger pull was very rough but has smoothed-up over time. Things I would have changed:A couple problems, the slide release on my gun sticks about 20% of the time when trying to open it. I have to use a tool sometimes to get it open. I use the rubber handle of a household tool so I don't damage the finish.
Out of the box, I could tell by bench shooting, that it shot 2 or 3 inches high. I filed the back sights several times (taking just a little off each time) until I got it sighted in.
After shooting almost 200 8-shot cylinders, I've noticed that anytime I wait several minutes between shots, the next shot seems to be weak. It sounds different and usually hits low on the target. I believe this is somehow related to the safety. When I leave the gun on fire between shots (which I don't like to do), the 'weak shot' problem disappears. What others should know:
Things I liked:No problems. Things I would have changed: What others should know:My overall rating and value rating is low because in my Walther CP88, I can see no performance difference between these pellets and the RWS Basic pellets at just over half the cost (green tin).
Things I liked:I use these in my Walther CP88 and have had no problems after 1500 rounds fired... no jams, no tin problems and no deformed pellets that I've noticed. I tried one tin of the RWS Meisterkugeln. At almost twice the cost, I couldn't tell any performance difference in my gun. Things I would have changed: What
