Gamo PBA Bullet, .22 Reviews

Well, they're lead-free and euthanize small animals rather well and reliably, I guess.

Worst pellet ever, accuracy-wise; can't even hit a standard piece of paper at 10 yards with it reliably. Using a Crosman Diamondback SBD .22. Out of five shots, only two even hit the paper, in quite different places even. Also, some fit in the breech loosely, and some I can't even get in at all. Pretty sure this is related to the pellets actually looking somewhat different from each other in shape. The manufacturing process seems to need improvement.

They're pretty. Lead free is good the indoor range local to me requires lead free. Maybe they might work great in some other airgun just not my Benjamin marauder pistol.

These pellets would not cycle properly in my 22 cal Benjamin marauder pistol. I don't know if its because of the particular shape or batch or what but they jam up. Other pellets work great h+n, crossman etc. It loves the hornets and the polymags but not these.

Fishing @Hunting @Camping with my family target practice

Would like to change things back to when I grew up to many laws infringing on our rights can't even shoot a airgun in your backyard without someone saying something just miss the simpler times God bless keep up the great work mike

These pellets Rock got them to keep them critters to a good distance from me while fish God bless this great country

This is the heaviest PBA .22 pellet that I was able to find that performed well. It's giving me the best groups (of the pellets I've tried, of course) from a Gamo Whisper Fusion Mach I. If I had all the money I'd be shooting these.

They don't contain lead, but they must contain something else expensive instead. These things are $0.18 each. Even at that price, their consistency is not great. They are quite hard, so any oversized pellets give you the feeling that you're breaking your rifle, and undersized pellets feel like they're going to fall down the barrel compared to the average. I'm finding roughly 1/10 pellets either over or under, none deformed. Still, that's $2 down the toilet before I even started shooting.

Worth trying, particularly for hunting, if you don't want to shoot lead. Otherwise, at this price, give them a pass.

They are deadly on squirrels ,I was shooting them at 50 yrs plus and dropping them in their tracks!

Better quality! You have to sort them if you what the best accuracy!

Lead-Free, They are accurate, but lack of penetration is what finally made me want to dump them

The heads do not want to fit into the breach of the air rifle. This is probably the cause of the lack of penetration as well from what I can figure. It is a really tight fit.

Not much penetration for me with my Hatsan Edge .22, could be because of how they do not want to fit in the breach of my break barrel.

I love them ,they are accurate and lethal. I have said all that needs to be said about this ammo.

nothing

they are excellent for target and small game.

Excellent performance in my Crosman. Outperformed German equivalent.

Had a few mutants in the batch, sad since they are pricey

You'll find a few flyers sometimes, but they shoot beautiful tight groups. And had to adjust scope higher and to the right from other pellets.

Size, weight, shape, velocities achieved and Lead Free

nada, awesome pellet

Accurate and hard hitting. Great for hunting. Fits tight but not too bad in my Benjamin Steel Eagle NP2. I have tried many pellets and always come back to this one. My favorite all-around pellet!

Pretty to look at.

Make the head just a tad smaller. It does not fit easily in my Benjamin Trail NP .22 I don't like pressing it into the barrel with force. These are costlier than .22 long.

Makes a pretty paperweight.

Shoot really fast from my Benjamin Trail NP2 air rifle. Will chrony after I replace the chrony that was stolen from the back of my truck.

Accuracy of these pellets is less than stellar out beyond 15 yards. The Gamo Match Diablos lead pellets I shoot make one ragged hole at 20 yards. The PBAs I think would be best used to shoot larger game/vermin at distances 15 yards and under, not a good choice to try and print groups with. Also since they are light they will shed velocity and energy quickly at distance beyond 15 yards. Also dimensional uniformity pellet to pellet varies. About 2 out of 5 will take effort to insert them flush into the breach.

hits very hard, flies straight and 1 inch group at 30 yds.

price

The gamo bullet in.22 cal. is a solid hard hitting pellet that penetrates better than any other pellet I have. After shooting about ten different pellets into a hard back book they all deformed to the point of total deformation and the gamo bullet had little to none. and for that reason the gamo went through more pages. If you need a deep penetrating pellet the gamo bullet is great.

They are a bit pricey but still get the job done.

The pellet is extremely hard so it might be a bit hard to seat them in your gun.

For a lead free pellet these shot well out of most of my guns. I love how hard these are as that aids in less being deforming from shipping.

Quality Control. Gamo still isnt there yet. Improvement is seen but not on par just yet.

Great against hard headed pest like squirrels and not nasty fingers after a days worth of shooting.

Accurate flat trajectory, incredible impact energy for a pellet. I put 3 PBA bullets through 1.43mm of double plated rolled steel (computer case) at 10 yds, and they still penetrated a good portion of my backstop. I have yet to use them on game, but the season opens up in 7 hours. :)

The price. Sure, you get what you pay for, but ?$15 for 100 pellets is steep.

These pellets most definitely live up to the "terminal performance" claims. Buy them, use them.

Very clean a uniform and shoot well out of my Benjamin Marauder Pistol

Need to be cheaper Cost way to mush!

Gamo PBA Bullet do not live up to the clam of deeper penetration ! I Put them up against a similar shape and wt. lead pellet the (Crosman premier doom pellet). They where all shot from 30 yd. The Crosman whet deeper into the soap block . And then whet through the same number of 3/16” plywood panels. And thats where a harder pellet should of won but didn't. What’s up with that? Maybe that’s way there’s a picture of a wade cutter lead pellet. Comparing apples to oranges

Nothing

In the advertisement of this product let people know there is a possiblility of damage to the bore of your Air Rifle

There is a possiblity of damage to your Air Rifle!

EVERYTHING !!!

defiantly A lot bigger tin for the cost

not for close rang hard targets , these will bounce back . Good for hunting not so much for back yard play , cost to much !

I was impressed with the .22 pellets I got.They are flawless,smooth and no imperfections what so ever.The casting seam is very small and on alot of the pellets they are actually smooth,no seam at all.

NOTHING YET...PYRAMID WAS GREAT,I'M GOING TO USE THEM FOR NEXT PURCHASE.

Some ppl don't like the price or not getting 1" groups @ 50 yds.The lighter the load the less accurate it is.most ppl buy these for the higher velocity and deeper penetration.Great for coons,coyote and hogs...ALSO THE TINS HAS A SCEW ON LID,THE ONLY COMPANY DOING THIS RIGHT NOW...I DONT MIND PAYING A LITTLE EXTRA FOR ALL THIS *****

I LIKE THAT THIS AMMO PERFORMED WELL IN SEVERAL OF MY .22CAL RIFLES. VERY GOOD ACCURACY.

ADD MORE PELLETS TO THE TIN FOR THE SAME PRICE.

THIS PELLET IS ACCURATE AND I RECOMMEND THIS PELLET. THE NEXT TIME YOU PURCHASE SOME AMMO CONSIDER THIS AMMO ON YOUR SHOPPING LIST.
