Things I liked:The main thing i like about this rifle is the power. It has enough power to send pellets screaming downrange through my fence and into my neighbors. So i put a couple of boards up or a box with a stack of news paper to slow the pellets down.The synthetic stock is great too. The scope is alright but the scope stop has warped due

So i put a couple of boards up or a box with a stack of news paper to slow the pellets down.The synthetic stock is great too. The scope is alright but the scope stop has warped due to the amount of kick this gun emits. I like how it comes with a yellow filter for the scope. This is very handy because it makes images sharper. Things I would have changed:Well the main thing that bothers me about this rifle is the loud twangy noise it makes. If it came with a silencer it would probably be a little better, but the sound of the spring would still be there. Also the the kick of the spring fully extending makes it hard to be accurate at distances over twenty five yards or more. I'm not saying it's not possible because i have hit targets at forty yards, but it takes getting used of the kick and some skill too. What others should know:First off this is the first spring rifle I have ever owned. However I have shot a few pump rifles that are on par in accuracy to this rifle. I also bought this rifle before the Whisper came out and had I known I would have probably gone with that one.
Things I liked:READ SOME OF MY OTHER REVIEWS!!!!!
They're shiny and economical. Things I would have changed:nothing much but I've shot some that out performed these. What others should know:These pellets are good pellets for shooters who don't want to pay a lot of money. However, I shot and tested some other pellets

What others should know:These pellets are good pellets for shooters who don't want to pay a lot of money. However, I shot and tested some other pellets like the Beeman Crowmagnums that offer a bigger expansive cup but cost a little more. Over all these are pretty good pellets, but you get what you pay for.
Things I liked:The perfect fit, size, and weight. READ SOME OF MY OTHER REVIEWS ON TESTS! Things I would have changed:other than price, nothing. But you get what you pay for and these do return the favor. What others should know:These are great pellets in terms of impact force. They really pack a punch, especially in

But you get what you pay for and these do return the favor. What others should know:These are great pellets in terms of impact force. They really pack a punch, especially in a high powered magnum spring gun. I did a few tests with these and they can really put a dent in a metal chair. They explode glass bottles, take down pigeons with one hit, and put holes in cars......what else can you ask for?
Things I liked:Buy ME!!!! ( one of my favorite types pellets) Things I would have changed:nothing What others should know:To begin with, these pellets are some of the most popular. The expansive cup really does wonders. The other day I did a test with all of the pellets I owned and these were by far the most effective

The expansive cup really does wonders. The other day I did a test with all of the pellets I owned and these were by far the most effective in terms of impact. I was shooting at a plastic vitamin water bottle and it left a really mean exit wound. Also I fired a few shots at a 2x4 and these made the biggest hole. You should try them.
Things I liked:Buy ME!!!! Things I would have changed:They're more expensive than some of the other lead pellets out there, but it's the quality that counts. What others should know:These pellets are great for long range shooting in a high powered spring rifle. I tried using these pellets at 15 yards and they didn't perform

What others should know:These pellets are great for long range shooting in a high powered spring rifle. I tried using these pellets at 15 yards and they didn't perform as well as some of my other pellets. ( I.E. crow magnums rock!) On the other hand, they are superb at distances past 30 yards. I went shooting with my cousin today and we were hitting bottles past 50 yards. Was one heck of a shot, but with a little luck and no wind it all played out very well.
Things I liked:Where do I start? Well first of all i like that they are bright orange because it helps me spot where my shot went. I also like the metal tips because it provides a better impact shock on what ever it hits. For instance, I was aiming at a sobe bottle about twenty or so yards away and after i pulled the trigger all i saw through

For instance, I was aiming at a sobe bottle about twenty or so yards away and after i pulled the trigger all i saw through the scope was glass bursting in a dazzling way. It's hard to describe in words other than It was like poetry....pure grace. If you've ever witnessed this you probably know what i mean. Anyhow they are some of the best pellets i've ever used. I highly recommend them. Things I would have changed:Other than the cost and quantity.......nothing What others should know:Sometimes the plastic orange part comes flying back at you if you shoot at something hard, but that shouldn't be a problem if you're wearing your safety glasses like you should be. I mean it's common sense.
