Things I liked:

Great accuracy and value for the money.

Things I would have changed:

500 in a tin

What others should know:

These are dusted with graphite to reduce friction, so don't think you have lead dust on your fingers.

Very nicely made pellet. Cuts very nice clean holes on paper.

Make them in 5.52mm size.

These pellets did not shoot well out of my Air Arms S200 Hunter at 25 feet and at 50 yards.

    Things I liked:

    They definetly cut a clean hole in light chipboard targets. The softer paper ones not as perfectly round but still better on those than regular rounded nose pellets

    Things I liked:

    These will increase the speed in a lower power CO2 gun.

    Things I would have changed:

    Without closely sorting pellets, at 15 yards, I would get four in the same hole and the next a flier two inches off.

    What others should know:

    They are worth a try in an under-powered gun.

    Things I liked:

    Takes a normally slower airgun and increases its speed due to the light weight ( just over 11 grams for a 22cal.). Also performed better than other pellets out of my crosman 2240.

    Things I would have changed:

    Screw top tin would be nice.

    What others should know:

    These can hang up a little due to the shape and/or feed ramp so don't expect to reload as rapid as you would with domed pellets.

    Things I liked:

    COST and ACCURACY Diana pistol. My 1st purchase that's not a Crosman or Benjamin pistol. BTW, I have worn several of those out in my lifetime. May have to do a review for it as I'm pretty impressed. I know "made in China for Diana" but had to see for myself.

    Things I would have changed:

    500 count tin? BUT by 3 and the 4th is free from PA. How can you beat that...

    What others should know:

    If you own a .22 Diana Chaser pistol, so far #2 in accuracy (.265 center to center) at 10m/ 5 shot groups, just barely beaten out by Meisterkuglen's (.250 c to c). So far his includes all from an H&N sampler, Exite wadcutter (garbage by the way), and Norma S-Target match (#3 at .275 c to c). Guess I'll have to order and test other but these will probably be my go-to's for the money. Your mileage may vary. Like women, barrels are all different in what they prefer.

    Things I liked:

    I needed some good cheep wadcutter pellets for some winter indoor practice. I include several airguns as a part of my firearm collection for the purpose of staying sharp on the trigger in the wintertime here in Montana as well as plinking around my property without worrying the neighbors.

    My advice to purchasers, Allways buy the best you can afford even if you have to save up a little. You'll never regret it.

    Things I liked:

    EXTREMELY consistent size/fit!!! Most consistent pellets U have ever bought, I have tried at least a dozen different pellets with my pellet gun. These do not penetrate very well, but they are not designed to. They do an extreme amount of damage.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    RWS makes the most consistent pellets I have ever used, out of about 12-15 different brands and types. These do a large amount of damage and are perfect for birds. These are also the lightest lead pellets I could find.

    Things I liked:

    Pellets are clean, and consistent in size. Found no damaged, or bent one's in the tin. Did some shooting at 25 yards on a 5" target with mixed results. Punched some quarter size holes, but there were flyers as well. Gun was a Crosman custom 2400 KT with a 14" barrel. It was cold, and gun is CO2. Not making excuses just giving the facts. Flyers may have been my fault as well. Over all a good product. I will be buying more in the future. See my submitted photos of target.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    Pellets never perform the same in different guns. Barrel length, barrel make, muzzle velocity generated, all of these things make a difference in pellet performance. If you do not get the same results as me, it is to be expected. What works well for some may not work as well for others. But for my money, and for my gun this went fairly well. It may, or may not for you.

    Things I liked:

    Pellets look clean, and very consistent. Shooting a Crosman custom KT 2400 with a 14" barrel, and Barska 3x9 scope I punched two quarter size holes in a 5" target at 25 yards. Yes there were numerous fliers, but I may have been at fault on a few of them. It was 51degrees Fahrenheit, and the gun is CO2. Not the best shooting weather for CO2. All, and all I'd say a good wad cutter for the money. Can't wait to try in warmer weather.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing, pellets are clean, and come in a nice tin.

    What others should know:

    Next I am going to try them out in my custom Crosman 1300 KT. I will add to my comments on the results I find.

    I was looking for a lighter pellet than I was shooting that held a good grouping and that was faster. It shot very well out of my magnum springer with groups of .75" to 1.0" at 25yrds. Very satisfied

    Things I liked:

    During the winter doldrums I took a 2240 and made it into a fairly accurate 10 meter pistol. Read good reviews on the RWS hobby pellets so decided to try a tin. They worked very well and were quite accurate in my pistol. At the price they make a very good practice round.

    Things I would have changed:

    change the lid to a screw on lid and sell them in a higher count.

    What others should know:

    Was going to get another brand, but Pyramyd was out of them. Will see how these work as I put more down range

    Since when did they change to 250 pellets to 200 ? You have to buy 5 tins to get 1000 pellets, if you shot a lot it gets expensive

    What others should know:

    I mostly shoot lower powered CO2 guns with these pellets. These are my go to pellets at 10-20 yards in all my .22 air guns. I have yet to find a gun that does not like these. The Hammmerli 850 and Beeman AR2078 just consistently get great groups. For plinking at short distances this is my best pellet to use.

    Seriously accurate.
