Crosman Premier .22, .22 Reviews

Best pellet my gen 1 maurader likes to eat. Will they be restocked soon?

Have them in stock ;)

Hard lead. Good penetration.

The price is too high and the heads are bit large in my springer barrels.

These might be good to try if you have loose or un-choked barrels IMO.

These pellets appear to be highly standardized: i.e., each pellet appears to be and to behave the same as every other pellet.

The packaging. Current packaging includes a foam sheet apparently intended to ensure the pellets remain within the box, most especially during shipping. That sheet is reduced from the full size of the square entry. The result: pellets leak out from around the foam sheet during shipping, some of which wind up elsewhere in the larger shipping box. Pellets can become distorted and unusable. Not many, but enough to take notice. Surely another form of packaging might be considered that would neither alter the cost of the product not allow leakage and loss; the commonly used larger plastic bottle used to pack BBs jumps to mind -- and would make it easier to gather and small numbers of pellets for loading a Pellet Pen or other container for field use and while hunting.

Center your scope on this pellet and you will have small reason to choose any other.

This are very accurate pellets.Great to 50 yds maybe more!

nothing

These are the best so far out of my Air force Talon ss.I've tried several pellets and in my Talon these seem to have the best accuracy from ten to 50 yds .I,m not saying there the best but there damn good.

Uniform and consistent

the price is too expensive, J

SB Exacts 14.35 grain are just as good but less expensive

Fairly accurate pellets

These are the nastiest pellets I have ever bought.

These pellets were much higher than the same ones in the tin. Supposedly, they were to be more uniform in size and weight. In weighing the pellets I found 2/3 weighed in at 14.2gn and about 1/3 weighed in at 14.4gn. I have yet to find any that weigh exactly 14.3. Certainly not worth the extra cost over the same pellet in the tin to me.

Ok, the 625 pellet box of .22 CP's IS expensive...but they are the better quality pells. The cheaper 500 tin CP's are great value plinkers and for closer shots. But for farm pest hunting shots at maximum airgun ranges (for me, about 80 yards with my .22 RWS54), these are worth the price...barely. My .22 RWS54 loves these 14.3 gr CPs. Groups are about 1/2 the size of H&N FTT pells. That said, my .22 HW80k positively HATES CPs. My HW80k totally sprays CPs (as in 2 inch groups at about 15 yards..from a rest). Verses my .22 RWS54 that puts 5 CPs into about 1 inch at 65 yds...an if I could hold steadier, groups likely would be tighter. R.Hamilton

Price too high. So I use these pells only in hunting. For plinking, I use less accurate but cheaper pells.

Compare H&N FTT and Crosman CPs if you have a .22 RWS 46/52/54. Your airgun might love them.

These are excellent shooters from my Benjamin NPS in .22 caliber. The accuracy is very good, after sorting by weight, and makes me confident of humane hits up to forty yards.The bulk packaging makes for very economical shooting!

Nothing.

As always, it is a good practice to obtain several types and weights of pellets to determine which one(s) your air gun prefers. Mine 'like' a variety of pellets but the Crossman Premiers seem to be best for my gun.

Large quantity. Decent accuracy in my Air Arms S200. Average ten shot groups at 52.5 yards was 1-3/4".

Better quality control. Pellets needed cleaning to remove loose lead artifacts.

Weight sorting did not improve accuracy. Lubing did not help either. Better lower price and better quality per pellet cost can be found elsewhere.

All the pellets are very uniform so far. There is very little residue and they are clean. These pellets are accurate with my RWS 350 Mag. I'm making nickle sized patterns from 45 yards

The price is a bit high and therefore i only rated them a 3/5. PA needs to do something about the price

I recommend these pellets for accurarcy. THe price is a bit steep but might be worth it...

These are very clean and accurate. I lube them myself, so leaving the graphite off is a plus.

The terrible packaging.

The price makes absolutely no sense. In the tin, the per pellet cost is 2 cents for .177 and 1.9 cents for the .22's??? The figures for the boxed pellets is 2.16 cents for the .177's and 4.16 cents for the .22's??? Can anyone make sense of this? It's as though they accidently put 625 pellets in the boxes of .22's when they intended to put 1250 in----which would have made sense.

Shoot well at 20 yards and under.

Price is not worth it over the metal tins.

Its a gamble with the tins , some are poor , most are the same as this box. The tins are cheaper but, you roll the dice.

I like the fact that the way the dome is it it can push it's way through grass and leaves to hit the target without being deflected.

just make the box an even 700ct

Be careful when using these for pest control and know what is beyond your target I had an accident with this pellet when I shot a rat and the pellet when through, ricochet off a rock in the ground and struck me in the shin. So make sure you have a good back stop that was a rare fluke but anything can happen so be careful and good hunting or shooting.

As I own only a single .22 cal (vintage) air pistol, I can't say my review is comprehensive. But I can say the packaging from the factory is more than adequate, the obvious care Pyramyd takes in packing for shipping is truly admirable, and I particularly like that the underside of the box has the die lot stamped. Pellets are clean, well formed and I've found few...actually no...malformed or distorted pellets so far. While I suppose one could acquire cheaper pellets, my rationale is basic scientific method of eliminating as many variables as possible while I rebuild a (somewhere between) 60 and 70 year old Webley "Premier" pistol. Aside from the obvious appropriate naming (Premiers for the "Premier", yuk, yuk, yuk,) I've found the cardboard box .177 version of these to be quite consistent and at least as well made and packaged as these in .22.

Include the business about consistency from a box-o-pellets-from-the-same-die in the description/specifications page as this is information far from common or even obvious to the average newbie. (Or even one who fancies knowledge and experience. Sophistication, too. Don't ask how I know this last:)

Save those blue rubber-bands your produce from the grocery store comes with. They're just the right size for keeping your cardboard box from spilling pellets here and there. Use two. If you have the urge to decant pellets from the cardboard to those empty 250/500/breath-mint tins (that are too good to throw away but you still haven't figured out a real use for them yet,) don't forget to make a note (on or in the tin) with the information about what's really in there. Name, weight, die-lot, and like that. You think you'll remember, but you won't. That's the sole reason writing and reading was invented all those years ago. ("What the heck is in this amphora, anyway?") :) Take advantage of the "4 for 3" deal. Do it.

These are my P-Rods favorite.

Accuracy and uniformity

They are priced alittle to high, but always have been.

These are not the same as the tins. These are the highest quality that Crosman offers.

They're good, but not any more accurate than the cheaper canned CP's in MY rifles (Benjamin Trail NP and Benjamin-Sheridan 392). Will not buy these again unless they are on sale for the same or less than the canned version.

The price.

Their accurate in several of my guns.

More pellets for the same price.

Nothing.

This is the top performing .22 pellet in many of my guns, including: RWS 350 mag, Marauder Pistol, and RWS 54. It's the 2nd best pellet in my TX 200 MKIII.

They're pretty pricey... $25 for 625 pellets is HIGH.

I lube my pellets with Krytech/Finish Line wax in a cereal bowl. I don't see many lead flakes coming off these like some other brands

large quantity box, good price

Good all-purpose pellet, but might not be the best for all airguns - but this applies to all pellets.
