Accuracy and price

Just clean.

What others should know:

My Diana 34 and Gamo shadow loves these pellets. I get better groups than RWS and H&N match at 15 to 20 meters.

    These are the pellets my S&W 586 revolver seems to digest the best.

    What others should know:

    I can't believe how well packed the pellet shipment of 10 tins was. It would be impossible to damage anything unless the package was run over by a truck. Great packing job compared to many I have seen.

    Things I liked:

    Available, reasonable pricing, they are keeping me shooting, Big THANKS to everybody at Pyramydair and the Zen desk!

    Things I would have changed:

    They are somewhat harder on the fingers to load and a little dirtier than the H&N Econs my rifle prefers (unavailable at this time), See the chrono comparison below..

    Things I liked:

    I found these to shoot very closely the same as the RWS Superdomes

    Things I would have changed:

    For being 7.56 grain "Match" type rounds, they were very inconsistent in diameter. Some were a very snug fit into the breech, while others dropped in easily. Those that were snug followed the same trajectory as the RWS Superdome, which weigh in at 8.36 grains. Those that were an easier fit like the Superdomes tended to hit an inch higher. So for things I would change would be in the tooling or molds used to produce these rounds. That will probably improve the Six Sigma statistics significantly.

    What others should know:

    I wouldn't recommend these for match contests, but I would use them for every day practicing. Too bad pictures of the test targets can't be posted along with the review.

    Things I liked:

    Price/quantity

    What others should know:

    These arent for match rifle/pistol use-inconsistent sizing, but work well in lever action rifle and colt style revolvers. Best use would be for plinking.

    Things I liked:

    The color of the tin; the lid is screw type. The pellets look bright. The price is reasonable.

    Things I would have changed:

    Make a little adjustment on the size of the pellets. A few pellets are a little large on the flat-headed side & the skirts. Needs to push into the barrel when loading. That make the shot drop to about 2" - 3" below the 2" target at 14 yards indoor. Some pellets are easy to load and all pellets make good round holes on paper targets.

    What others should know:

    I am a fan of .177 calibers. I've shot a few models, including Airarm, Avanti/Daisy Match, Beeman, Benjamin Prowler, Crossman, Gamo, Hatsan, Ruger, RWS, Stoeger, Winchester air rifles. Each model may have a little variation of size at the loading end of the rifle. On small hole, the Gamo pellets ( exceptional larger sizes ) may have problem in feeding into the barrel and affect the accuracy. But it didn't happen all the time. For target practice, & plinking, the price is economical.

    Things I liked:

    Nothing.

    Things I would have changed:

    When I started loading these into my GAMO Compact pistol, I noticed that some had to be forced in, some were just right, and some fell in. I put 24 of them through my Pelletgage, and found they spanned 4.46 to 4.54 in fairly equal # of pellets for each of the 9 measurements. Decent pellets will span 3 measurements, with almost all being in the center one. I threw the can away.

    What others should know:

    Don't waste your $ for horrible quality control.

    Things I liked:

    Screw top tin only thing not screwed up

    Things I would have changed:

    Couldn't believe Spanish quality surpassed by Chinese quality- pellets are inconsistent dimensionally and in weight - very hard to seat or would not seat all the way and had to be drifted out with a cleaning rod

    What others should know:

    Save yourself some heart ache - invest some extra cash and buy H&N it will be worth it the long run

    better sorting of head diameter. many pellets I have shot so far heads were too big for chambers.

    What others should know:

    Have tried shooting them in a Alecto, 1377, m&p45 . Many times the pellets had to be deep seated to make them work.

    Things I liked:

    The tin itself. It is a screw on top so all the pellets won't drop out (though that might be a good idea) if you accidently drop the tin.

    Things I would have changed:

    I hate to give anything a bad review but man are these bad pellets. The are of all different sizes and weights. Some are so small that they won't seal to the barrel while others still have the splay (splay, excess metal where the molds meet) on the side of the pellet! They can be so wide that you have to force them into the barrel.

    What others should know:

    Anything else you need to know? No, just don't buy them. Again, I really do hate to give anything a bad review but I don't want to see anybody wasting their money by buying these pellets

    Things I liked:

    Just received a time of these, maybe I expect to much. But whoever set up the dies to swedge these forgot to line them up, the 2 halves do not match. This should have been caught by quality control if in fact there is any. Will I buy again, Not likely.

    Things I would have changed:

    See above

    What others should know:

    Thought came to mind, were these rejects form someone else's production? Buy them if you wish, just don't expect much from them.

    Things I liked:

    Low price and good accuracy when staring out.

    Things I would have changed:

    Improved consistency, some pellets fit nicely in my AP, some fall out of the chamber if I'm not careful due to being undersized.

    What others should know:

    When starting out, these pellets will serve you as well as the higher priced ones, but around the time you are shooting well enough to qualify Sharpshooter, these will be holding you back. Up until shooting around 80% with thousands of shots to compare, these matched the scores, but by the mid 80s% these lagged a few %.
