By Joe from USA on 2013-01-06 01:21:08 Things I liked:These pellets do serious damage. Hit like a hammer. Very accurate out of TX200 up to 50 yards.What others should know:As long as these are used primarily for 50 yards and less, great buy. |  |

By Jeffry from USA on 2011-08-01 09:36:35 Things I liked:The manufacturing quality is very high. Fits chamber well.Things I would have changed:Needs much better accuracy. What others should know:I purchased these for pest control. In my Beeman R7, I am getting 3 inch groups at 30 feet from a shooting table. This is the only pellet that the R7 does not get better than dime size groups from. I would really like these pellets if I could get them to hit what I am aiming at. Because of the inaccuracy, these pellets can not be used for pest control in my R7. They may be fine in a higher velocity rifle. |

- Things I liked:Good expantion,Good groupings, high quality of over all pellets.
Things I would have changed:Not much.
What others should know:These grouped well for me at 25 yards with my nitro powered wisper very decent nock down power for pigeon,rabbit, squirrel. Took 40 squirrel with it in 3 months they did there job much less running then with some other pellets. - Things I liked:These pellets do serious damage. Hit like a hammer. Very accurate out of TX200 up to 50 yards.
What others should know:As long as these are used primarily for 50 yards and less, great buy. - Things I liked:These pellets are very well made. The are very uniform in size, weight, and shape. I've shot a few squirrels with mixed results. My conclusion is that in order for them to fully expand you need to be pushing higher FPS. Out of my Gamo Big Cat they expand like crazy and drop squirrels dead in their tracks under twenty yards. Beyond twenty I've lost a couple squirrels or needed a second shot. When I recover pellets from squirrels shot under twenty they are fully mushroomed everytime. Beyond twenty almost no expansion.
Things I would have changed:Nothing.
What others should know:As I stated above these H&N Crow Magnums are heavier than the Beemans. This slows them down. Make sure your shooting a magnum springer or high powered airgun of some variety. - Things I liked:These pellets out of my R-9 shot the best, .190 3 shot groups at 15yards, Great pellet for hunting, will pop the heck out of hogs, squirrels, and rabbits.
Things I would have changed:none.
What others should know:very consistent. - Things I liked:Very nice performance. I'm using these with a Benjamin Marauder. Very accurate and they hit hard.
Things I would have changed:Nothing.
What others should know:One hole group from bench at 25 yards. I have no complaints. - Things I liked:Great hunting pellet, shoot very well in my 20 year old Beeman FWB. Ive tried a variety of type of hunting pellets, these are my favorite for .177.
What others should know:This is worth a repeat. Pyramid Air is a great outfit. These guys understand that this is a customer service industry first, then an air gun industry. They are honest, efficient, and extremely knowledgeable about their business. Call and ask a question about their products one time and you will become a fan of this company. - Things I liked:I shoot both the .177 and the .22 Cal version of this pellet they both have the same effect on whatever target they hit, it explodes. Soda cans, apples, potato's, birds, rats, and so forth a good sinter of mass shot and it go's boom
Things I would have changed:larger count in the tin
What others should know:When I shoot applies or potato's it leaves a wound channel big enough to put my finger throw. My hands are not small, my rang size is 14.5 - Things I liked:big impact hollow point
Things I would have changed:quality
What others should know:from my 850 air mag these pellets are about as accurate as throwing a buick,6" groups at 30 yards!yes i said 6" groups,very dissapointing - Things I liked:these shoot very good from my RWS mod 34 rifle very good groups.
Things I would have changed:very pricey for 500 .177 cal pellets. - Things I liked:Uniformity of pellets is excellent.The most accurate pellet so far for my Hammerli Storm Elite.
Things I would have changed:Nothing.There everything a good pellet should be.
What others should know:Have noticed they dont seem to perform well out of pistols,but there spot on in my air rifle. - Things I liked:Stopping Power, Decent grouping at 25yds.
Things I would have changed:Cant really change much
What others should know:These hold decent groups at 25yds in my Ruger Blackhawk. Only thing I dont like about them is that they dont really carry much energy out past 30yds. But thats what they are designed for, close range devistation. So overall a good pellet, but dont plan on much squirrel stopping power past 30yds. - Things I liked:The manufacturing quality is very high. Fits chamber well.
Things I would have changed:Needs much better accuracy.
What others should know:I purchased these for pest control. In my Beeman R7, I am getting 3 inch groups at 30 feet from a shooting table. This is the only pellet that the R7 does not get better than dime size groups from. I would really like these pellets if I could get them to hit what I am aiming at. Because of the inaccuracy, these pellets can not be used for pest control in my R7. They may be fine in a higher velocity rifle. - Things I liked:Nice clean pellet. They fit consistantly snug in the breech of my RWS 350 Mag. This is a very uniform pellet. Love the availability and economy of the 500ct tin. Tremendous combination of accuracy and ME (22.5 ft-lbs) in this rifle.
Things I would have changed:I'd like them just a touch heavier (9.1gr?). The 350 Mag shoots them at a very consistant 1074+/- 3.2 fps which is still (just barely) super sonic.
What others should know:Likely a great choice if you have a rifle rated between 950 and 1250 FPS but runs a little slower than spec. ( Like most do.) - Things I liked:Big package of 500 pellets means re-sighting the rifle less often, able to shoot tight groups at 10 and 30 yds consistently, hits hard. I like that these are accurate enough for target shooting so i can expect the same performance when i must use them for pest control. One clean shot on target at reasonable distance is required for that.
What others should know:A good match for a Beeman R9/HW95 - Things I liked:The Expansion tip. It has the deepest Expansion Cavity and is the best performing hollow point there is, and i say this with reason, reason is that it expands VERY RAPIDLY (proven in my ballistics gel test) and has the WIDEST diameter at the end of penetration, it was the size of the head of a .25 caliber pellet when retrieved from my ballistics gel pellets were also very clean and no visible deformities
Things I would have changed:THE ACCURACY!!!! The accuracy is terrible with these out of my Benjamin Discovery I Dont know if my particular rifle doesnt like these but they did TERRIBLE im talking 2-3 inch 5 shot groups at 25 yrds compared to a very tight 1/8" 5 shot group at 25 yrds aswell with the Air arms 10.3 gr Field heavy Domed pellets
What others should know:Dont but them for the Benjamin Discovery - Things I liked:These pellets fit perfectly! I used a micrometer and they come out to about .180, which means a nice snug fit in your barrel. They have a good weight, are very accurate, and have the deepest hollow tip of any hollow point there is, for maximum impact. They are also a good pellet to modify, if you like to customize your shot.
Things I would have changed:Not one thing.
What others should know:If you ever want a good performance pellet, get some of these. All around great! - Things I liked:I just bought these Crow Magnum and they work great in a 1088 air pistal but they are just alil tight in the 1088 round clip and they are just alil shade taller than a .177 Hollow point pellet
Things I would have changed:I wouldnt change a thing about the Crow Magnum Pellets
What others should know:I am getting ready to order a .177 nitro piston air rifle and I will be shootting alot of paper targetes and there will be a video of them - Things I liked:Accuracy. I use these pellets for 10 meter target shooiting, plinking and hunting. My rifle loves them! They are good out to 40-50 yards. They shoot very tight groups, so it is really hard to justify using cheaper but less accurate ammo.
Things I would have changed:The tin needs a screw-on lid - it is inevitable that you will spill pellets because the lod doesn't stay on. The price - but I guess you pay for accuracy.
What others should know:Transfer these H&N Sport pellets into a different container or tin. The Crow Magnum hollow-point design works quite well as a wad-cutter for paper targets, leaving a nice clean hole. - Things I liked:My batch was of excellent manufacturing quality. Pellets arrived in great condition and seemed very consistent in size and shape. Very professionally made. What I expected from a German made pellet.
Things I would have changed:They seem just fine just the way they are. H&N knows a thing or two about making pellets.
What others should know:I'm using these Crow Magnums in my RWS 350 Compact. They fit my breech perfectly with just the right amount of resistance going in. My 50 or so tests have been short range target practice, with accurate, consistent results. The 8.80 grain weight seems just about right for the RWS 350. The gun sounds slightly different than when shooting lighter pellets. Like it's more controlled. The true tests will be outdoors at 25 to 30 yards when weather permits. - 12

Things I would have changed:Significant lower price.
What others should know:These expand and shoot well in my high power PCP air rifles. They are all I use for hunting at 40 yds. and less. They are too expensive for target use.
