Beeman Silver Sting, .177 Reviews

Very high quality and good penetrating capabilities. I was able to place these pellets cleanly through a 5/8" thick board at 15 ft. I was also able to produce clover leafs on a target at 15 ft with these pellets.

Nothing.

These pellets are a little expensive, but you pay for quality.

Everything. I used to shoot these back when they had the old 500 count tin out of my Powerline 880. This is the round I had shoot best through that gun, and I have taken hundreds of small game with these. Squirrels, birds, large birds, you name it. Even at around 600FPS out of that 880, these did their job extremely well. I still recommend these pellets to my friends as a starting hunting pellet. I just wish Beeman still had their 500 count tins like the good ol days. -J

The cost and amount per tin.

Watch out for over penetration in more powerful springers and PCP's. A+ round for small game

work great in a ruger airhawk, uniform shape with none having obvious deformities so far

not much, fit snug tho

didn't shot very good in my p3

These pellets are very consistent and accurate. I've been using these with my P1 and they are devastating on birds out to 20yards.

More per tin, I luckily have an older 500ct tin but the newer ones are only 300.

These have a nice uniform shape and fit the bore of my Beeman P1 perfectly.

These pellets are very cosistant and work excelletely in my hw77.

500 ct tin. screw on lid would be nice.

This weight pellet has proved very accurate in my gun but as with allair guns you have to experiment to find the right pellet for your air gun.

These pellets are clean, nicely formed and top quality.

They should come in a 500 count tin for the same price.

I have tested the velocity, accuracy and downrange performance of these pellets against the RWS Superpoint Extra 8.2 g pellets and the RWS pellets are the best value in .177 caliber since they come 500 to a tin, are equal in quality, retain downrange velocity much better (I chronograph at the muzzle and at 20 yards), and yield superb accuracy. However, in .22 caliber, the Beeman Silver Sting is a somewhat better performer than the RWS Superpoint.

They look like precision made pellets.

They do not perform consistently in my Crosman NPSS, Some times I would get 3 shots in a tight group, then the next 3 shots would be scattered around the target.

decent accuracy/penetration when used with a single shot or breach-repeating air gun only.

better quality control. 20% had deformed skirts, and about 30 in a tin of 200 actually had broken skirts.

DO NOT TRY TO USE THESE W/ ANY GUN THAT HAS A ROTARY CLIP. -about 1 in 5 of the skirts are hopelessly deformed

good pellet. accurate in 50 yards.Great hunting pellets.This pellet hits hard. well make

more for money.well...you got what you pay for

beyond 50 yds 5 inchs groupings.verry heavy pellets. make sure gun is powerful. this pellets may not work well in many spring guns.but very well make pellets.I use these in my 5 other gun, so far so good. buy it when it available

Well balanced pellet. Has very flat tragectory.

the can needs a screw on lid

I only tried this out in my Walther Talon. The lower powered guns may not get the same results.

Beeman quality. Very consistent.

Screw on cap on the tin as always with Beeman pellets.

Shoot well in my wife's RWS Schutze. Penetrate well even at low FPS. Very sharp point.

Very uniform in size and weight .

Nothing

The manufactor states they are 8.61 grain . Mine were only 8.1 - 8.2 on both of my scales .

Outstanding accuracy - in Beeman Feinwerkbau 124 sporter and in a Feinwerkbau 300 Match air rifle and a RWS Diana Model 48. Only pellet that gave better accuracy was an Beeman H&N Match pellet.

weight,they fit good in barrel

nothing

Better than the gamo pointed pellets. In my opinion because of the weight and fit. Not a bad buy at all

I like the nice pokey point that this pellet has. Its ideal for clean kills where the birds wont explode like with crow magnums...destroying the meat.

Id like for the pellet to be a little longer, heavier, and wider because they have a very loose fit in my gun and go sonic which just kills accuracy.

I use a Gamo Hunter Hurricane 1250 which is a big magnum class air gun. The pellets may go subsonic on very hot days and have some good performance but on average or cold days it just no good. These pellets would be great in a 1,000 FPS gun.

penatration,and killing effect

longer like a dart

at 1oo yard shot the pellet would get stuck on the birds body,aim and always shoot chest high..

fast penatrating,instant kill,and the treated skirt stableliser to make the 40-60 shot

prise its too expensive

shoot any small game (chest high) that makes that kill zone

I didn't get terribly good results with these pellets, they grouped poorly compared to similar weight wadcutters.

probably the wrong pellet for my target guns....

these were used in low velocity target guns and may perform differently in more powerful guns.

very sleek and sexy
