Gamo Raptor PBA, .25 Reviews

High velocity. About 75-100 ft per second faster than any of the other 11 pellets I've shot in my Hatsan .25 cal 155 Torpedo. Good penetration at 40 ft and under.

A lot. The least accurate pellet I've ever shot in any gun. 3" 5-shot groups are the best they'll do at 20 yards compared to 3/4" groups with other pellets..

Don't believe the hype. If you're shooting at 30 ft and under, they are pretty good. However, they shoot all over the place at 20 yds or more. I bought them out of curiousity. My tests basically confirmed what I already knew. Buy another pellet with your money.

Light and hard hitting.

Weight wasn't accurate according to my Lymann 1500. .25 cal SO POST to weigh 14.40 I was getting 14.60-14.70 on a little overhalf. Skirts was not clean had shavings on the edge I had to cut off with razor and some was not round on skirt. This is what ate my Breech seal out I believe. After I trimmed them they weighed 14.40-14.50 better but I shouldn't have to trim them ridiculous. I might buy 1 more pack ! Might have been a bad die. Need more for the money in a pack like a pack of 4-5.

Always check the head and Especially the skirt of all pellets before putting them in your EXPENSIVE air gun. I own a Gamo Hunter Extreme .25 cal

This pellet shot very good groups after I sighted in my new .25 caliber Big Cat Gamo airgun without a scope on it.

Lower the cost!

Can't think of anything...

Fast and accurate

nothing

weneed a 25 caliber pen loader for this round

High FPS 14carat Bling, Accurate Great Price You cant beat PA's Price buy 3 get 4th tin free on pellet tins

not a thing

Since these PBA pellets are very light they tend to shoot higher than a lead pellet. Other Shooters will think you are foolishly rich.

Hard hitting, gold plated works great,these things are killer's!

Why coated with gold? And not another soft metal? Gold is so expensive!

They fit really tight in the breach?

Lightweight - Hi Velocity. Very accurate!

Price for quantity.

Highly recommend use in PCP,CO2 or Nitro/Gas piston airguns. Due to lightness, I would not recommend over-use in spring piston guns.

The look, the penetration at close distance

Make heavier but than I guess it would defeat the purpose

I wouldn't get these. Stick to the lead, unless you have a weaker gun, I would be very skeptical using them in high powered. Maybe a pcp but def not a magnum springer. Oh, if you just want to break the sound barrier. Than buy it. Sometimes they have trouble cycling in the bt 65 mags due too misshaped

Hyper velocity 1035 fps out of my m- rod.

Nothing.

Ok accuracy with in 35 yes.

Fast and it's the only one I can legally use to hunt in California

The accuracy, too many skirts are deformed

Good luck

Unlike other reviewers, I find these to be EXTREMELY accurate! I used them in my Airforce TalonP today, and consistently hit the center of the center of each of my targets at 60-70+ yards. This pellet also maintains more of its mass than lead pellets do after hitting a solid target.

Pellets are not smooth at the seams (feels like there is a little excess alloy. Surprisingly this doesn't seem to affect accuracy at all.

These pellets are extremely light compared to average lead pellets. This causes an increase in velocity, but a decrease in ft/lb energy. Recommended for smaller, faster game.

All pellets are uniform in quality when I inspected them for errors! Accuracy and penetration are very good for my Hatsan 125 .25 cal air rifle, Usually produces 1/2" groups at about 25 yards depending how you fire it, I suggest using a bi-pod for accuracy, Easily defeats 1/4" plywood, great for popping targets made of thin metal. ie aerosol cans, out dated soup etc.

Provide more pellets for cost and use a tin to package instead of capsules. It would be nice to have 75-100 in a unit instead of 54.

Treat with caution as these defeat most backstops, I recommend making your own backstop with 3/4" plywood reinforced with sheet metal on opposite side, or buying a high end backstop rated for firearms. Have fun!

nothing just the color :)

good only for up to 20 yards nothing more

Not too much, flies fast is all I can say. It does not have the "punch power" of the Beeman pellets with the heavier weights

These pellets are too light, nice if you want to hear the "boom" from an airgun but not too much use otherwise. I ordered two packages of them, will probably have them in my estate when I pass as I have no use for them.

Don't waste your money on these super light pellets. I have no use for them and they are way to expensive for the amount you get

These pellets a extremely accurate in my WEBLEY PATRIOT air rifle. At 30 yards I have been holding 1/2 to 3/4 shot groups depending on how you want to measure them. For sure all shots are in the one inch bullseye. The other thing I really like about these pellets is the first shot out of the cold rifle does not shoot way high as many other brand pellets seem to do. In other words the point of impact is the same on the first round as it is on dozens of shots later. I will not shoot anything but these pellets in this rifle and I just hope the rifle will hold up to these light pellets.

I would like to see more pellets for the price.

In the past I have been shooting the Beeman Crow Magnum. They are about twice as heavy a pellet and I have never been satisfied with their accuracy. I'm not sure why these light pellets are so accurate in my rfile and I see many complaints about their accuracy from other shooters. All I can say is give them a try and hopefully you will be as impressed as I am with these.

Speed of the pellet and its penetration

I would add more grains to the pellet for more knock power for my Air force Condor.

This pellet is not accurate after 25-30yards because of the speed it travels.

They look good and they have a consistent size, weight and shape.

Not sure...they suck as far as accuracy in my Marauder.

Best group from these so far is about 6" at 40 yards.
