Beeman Kodiak Extra Heavy .22 Cal, 21.10 Grains, Pointed, 200ct
A favorite for field target shooters. As one of the world's heaviest pellets the Kodiak has a tremendous amount of inertia that delivers super impact on those hard to knock down targets. The great weight also provides good wind resistance and is more efficient in the higher powered airguns and the pre-charged pneumatics such as the Beeman Mako air rifle. The head is very conical in shape, like a rounded point, providing outstanding aerodynamics.

Things I liked:1.5" - 3" center-to-center at 100 yards (5 shot groups.) 0.4375"-1.5" at 50 yards (920-990 fps.) Pellets are very consistent in shape and are very accurate. For comparison, the Eun Jin 32gr Jet pellet groups 0.8" ctc at 50 yards (990 fps) and 2.5" at 100 yards on average. The Eun Jin 28.4gr pellet groups 0.5"-1.75" ctc at 50 yards

It takes less air to shot than the Eun Jin pellets. Great for target practicing. Things I would have changed:Screw-on lid with foam padding. What others should know:The pellets were shot from a Sumatra 2500R passed the break-in period. The pellets were first inserted at the back of the magazine to "size" the skirts before dropping into the magazine backwards. These pellets seem to be much more temperature sensitive than the Eun Jin pellets (POI and group size-wise.) Also, they should more accurately from a dry barrel than a lubraicated barrel. Personally, I like this pellet and the Eun Jin pellets equally.

Things I liked:H & N Barracuda pels are going to give this one a run for its money, and they are a buck cheaper. Kodiaks set the standard previously for .22 heavy weight precision shooting. That may change. Unless, of course, the Kodiaks come in a new, improved, SCREW-ON tin.
Things I would have changed:How about a SCREW-ON

What others should know:See well made, consistent weight and shape, packaged well to maintain the integrity of the manufacturing process. You need "enough gun" to launch these will precision at a distance. The HW 80...seemed very please reaching out over 100 ft with accuracy. (Just can;t appreciate the rounded nose on the pellet....time will tell)

Things I liked:I like the fact that they are heavy, and slightly pointed. It is not a sharp point, instead it is a rounded point that seems to be pretty stable in flight.

Things I would have changed:I cannot think of anything that I would change. What others should know:I have a .22 Ben Sheridan Super Streak with the factory scope mount, and a Gamo Scope Stop, Rubber Bumper, 11mm Dovetail, and I have found that these pellets really make the scope move. After about 15 shots I can see that the scope is compressing the scope stop. Lighter pellets do not do this. And yes I do clamp my scope down very tight, so please don't think that I don't.

Things I liked:Highest ballistic coefficient (.033) of any .22 cal pellet I've ever used. In my Airforce Talon at PW setting 10 it gives 760 fps and is the absolute most accurate pellet I've found. Tiny one hole groups of five shots at 25 yards. Things I would have changed:Screw on lid. HELLO! This is something everuone is telling

HELLO! This is something everuone is telling you manufactures. What others should know:This heavy pellet does not lose velocity downrange as fast as other pellet shapes and weights. In published tests of 10 popular .22 pellets, using an Airforce Talon, the Kodiak was slowest out of the muzzle than all others but was 2nd fastest at the 50 yard mark and highest in fpe.

Things I liked:AWESOME PELLET! very consistant and groups with little effort at 20 yards in my Beeman RS1. it's also very hard hitting, good news for you hunters!. it only takes 2-3 shots for it to pass through 1 inch of wood!

What others should know:nevertheless, the RS1 is a Chinese gun, and isn't the most accurate gun anyway, plus i'm a mediocre shooter by all means. i use these pellets for simple field shooting where i need something that will hold a semi-good group so i can have some fun.

Things I liked:Devastating power in high powered pcp rifles. High quality, as are all of Beeman pellets. Great accuracy. Very uniformed shape throughout the whole tin.

Things I liked:These hit really hard! They tear off small branches if in the way to the target. They fit snug. The price is right. I use them for plinking and small game hunting. I also like the Crow Mags, but these are heavier by nearly 3 grains and will hit harder.

Other than that......Nothing!
What others should know:Make sure your riffle can handle the weight of these pellets. All my .22 are 860fps and above.
If you are using metal traps with these Kodiaks, make sure the trap is far enough away, because I got a few Kodiak pellets at 30 yrds finding their way out of my traps. Safe shooting.

Things I liked:The size (in theory) Things I would have changed:Make it accurate beyond 15 yards What others should know:This pellet is to big for its own good. The thing with hunting and air rifles is you normally have just 1 shot to hit your target when hunting. At 30-50 yards your groups are going to be as bad as 1-4

The thing with hunting and air rifles is you normally have just 1 shot to hit your target when hunting. At 30-50 yards your groups are going to be as bad as 1-4 inches, so there is going to be a good chance you miss. Stick with the Crossman Priemier family of pellets. The price is much better and you will always hit wat you aim at.

Things I liked:I use my RWS Diana Model 48 for hunting squirrels here in Arizona. When It hits, it has great "thwacking" power. The pellet "locks-in" with a tight fit, much like the Benjamin pellets of old (30 years ago). The heavy weight helps to keep the pellet under the speed of sound.

Things I would have changed:I don't know. What others should know:Unfortunately I am not hitting consistently. I am a good marksman, so missing is frustrating. I have been blaming it on my scope, but since my most recent scope purchase, I now believe the pellets were and are part of my problem.

P.S. buy 15 tins at a time and you'll get 5 tins free, more importantly they will come in 4 boxes, in one box. Better yet, buy 30 tins and get 10 tins free.

... Read MoreThings I liked:It's an excellent pest management (within the realm of 15 yards, or 45 feet), and awesome infliction of blunt damages to target areas, IF IT HITS THE TARGET!! The extra weight on the pellet increases the addition force of impact. If you're taking a target weights about 50 grams, hit it with a Crow Magnum, when the target gets hit, the target will swing about 180 degrees from the hanging axis. If you're hitting with the Kodiak, the target will swing 360 degrees. The kinetic energy is incredible. Things I would have changed:Drop the price per pellet by $0.01 or $0.02, and replace the tin with cheap-hard plastic container with screw top (which is 1/4 the price of the tin itself but with stronger structure to support the pellet during shipping). What others should know:The increase of weight of the pellet not only decrease the overall velocity, as well as increasing the straying of the grouping. Let's compare:
The Beeman Crow-Magnum, within a 20 yards (60 feet) on a calm day (with very light 5 mile per hour wind), can create a 0.05" or hole-in-hole grouping, using the Benjamin Sheridan Super Streak 0.22. Now, load the Kokiak up, you can achieve a 0.5" grouping at 15 yards, 0.25" grouping at 10 yards, and only a hole-in-hole at 5 yards to 7 yards. Anything beyond 15 yards, the stray grouping varies from 1 to 4 inches. It could be due to several factors. The additional weight is not a constant weight at 21 grams. It varies from 19.5 to 22.6 grams. Why? I have no clue. The head of the pellet is not perfectly unison. Out of the 4 tins that I purchased, at least 1/3 of the tins' pellets actually have the conical heads that's shifted about 0.25mm of its central axis. Use a mm laser measuring meter, and a centrifuge machine, you can truly see such discrepancy. The surface of the pellets are very rough. Unlike the Crosman domed pellets, JSB Predator, or even the Benjamin series, the Kodiak is quite pitted or roughed. The poorest part is the skirt. Out of of the 4 tins, if you pooled together, only 1 good tin actually have pellets with skirts that fit perfectly in the bore. That means only 1 out of 4 actually kit well. The Crow-Magnum and Crosman domed are much better. 3 out of 4 actually fit perfectly in the bore during insertion.
Rather than the 1100fps claimed velocity for the Super Streak .22, the Kodiak averages around 530fps during moderate humid days, to 640fps during perfect conditions (with very light wind), chrono-ed 4 feet from the barrel exit. if you chrono 4 feet from the target that's 15 yards away, the velocity decreases to 275 fps for humid days, and 470 fps for perfect days.
I give a 3 overall because of the amount of damage it can cause, but the stray is ridiculous. One of my chronos got damaged heavily after a 23 yard firing test. The stray was close to 5 inches off from the 8"x8" chrono window.
The damage entry wound is exactly the same as the Crow-Magnum (a quarter size). For some reason, regardless of the distant from the live targets, even at 5 yards, there's no exiting wound. Blunt damage actually knock the feral pigeon half a foot horizontally off the power wire 10 yards away before it falls vertically.
If you're using for vermins control, best to purchase the Crow-Magnum within a 30 yards effective range. If you're planning to plan to increase your range to 40 or 45 yards, stick with the Crosman domed for cheap and accurate targeting. JSB is way too expensive, and the hyper velocity type doesn't gain any more velocity or accuracy than the domed one. Stick with moderate weight (between 12 to 14 grams) for that 35 to 45 yards range. For those who claim to go beyond 50 yards with less than 5" grouping, they're lying through their teeth. Some claim to go up to 100 yards or more? Sure...I would like some video feeds on those please. This gun is placed on a tripod, with close to perfect control and minimal of jolting as anyone can rig up.

Things I liked:Hard hitter. Heavy shot for that longer game shot, with dead accuracy. Things I would have changed:I realize this is a heavy pellet, so I guess my call for a larger can would go unheeded. What others should know:Beeman quality in a long and heavy straight shot.
Highly recommended for whatever your long

Things I liked:The power of these things, if you want to knock something down this is your pellet! Shoots very accurately from 30 yards in. Things I would have changed:Offer a bigger, better can, screw off top! What others should know:buy these, if you have a varmint problem, crow problem or if you just want to blow stuff

... Read MoreThings I liked:I submitted a review on the Kodiak back on March 6th 2008, however, since that time I've had the opportunity to gain more insight into the performance of this pellet. On impact the .22 Kodiak retained its basic shape with only some distortion to the head (nose pushed in and flattened a little). Out of the 10 types of pellets that I tested, the Kodiak was the 5th most accurate pellet for my rifle averaging groups of .6848" c-t-c (best group was .5725" c-t-c) at 25 yards. In my pellet comparisons, the Kodiak tied the Crossman Max Speed #7562 flat nose for the 3rd best overall size consistency (measured the head, skirt & Length of several pellets from each type of pellet tested). The average price for the pellets that I tested was $0.035 each, so at $0.039 each, the Kodiak provides moderate accuracy, consistency and stopping power. However, considering that the Kodiak is 30% to 40% larger than half the other pellets that I tested, the price is actually good. Things I would have changed:The Kodiak created the smallest entry hole measuring only .0602" in diameter (about 28% of the pellets original size with a small sized jagged star edge). Because this pellet is think and heavy, it retained its shape pretty well with little expansion, only about 14% (creating more of an exit tear, as opposed to a clear defined exit hole). Out of the 10 types of pellets that I tested, the Kodiak had the 5th best penetration depth (which means that its weight and bulky mass are transferring more energy to the target). However, the size of this big pellet comes at a cost in velocity (this thing flies slow and drops like a rock) which allows the recoil of the gun to have more of an influence on the pellet as it leaves the barrel (which may accounts for some of the inaccuracy). I believe that a more powerful gun would increase its accuracy. This pellet is prone to over penetration on smaller targets (i.e. Squirrels, etc.). What others should know:The .22 Kodiak pointed nose pellet is the longest (.341' actual length) and the heaviest (21.1 grains) of all the pellets that I tested. In a more powerful gun, its weight should really help it to stay on target at long range. The other 9 pellets that I tested included the FTS, Silver Sting, Copper Head (pointed), Supper Dome, Silver Bear, Crow Magnum, Max Speed Flat-Nosed 7562, Silver Ace, and the Ram Jet. My rifle is a .22 Beeman GS1000 that is rated at 765 FPS by the Mfg.

Things I liked:being just a beginner - best accuracy I've had yet (but I've only ever shot low end Crossmans before these - which were all over the place) While sighting in my RWS Diana 54 I got groupings of 1/2 inch easily - I was ecstatic. Now I kill squirrels one shot. I am very impressed. Things I would have changed:I don't

Things I liked:Shaped for accuracy Things I would have changed:I would make a second version, even heavier, about 30 grain for the more powerful PCP guns.
We could have a choice, heavy or ultra heavy pellets What others should know:As always with Beeman, great quality

Shot a Gatorade bottle off a wood post at about 75+. That's about the size of a crow. My friend says, "Three dots, three dots." That's how many mil-dots he used to aim above the target with the Leapers R/G 3-9x40 full size AO scope. Bipod used was the Dragon Claw. Very good, effective combo with these pellets. Things I would have changed:Nothing at all What others should know:If you have a rifle that shoots over 1000fps, these heavy pellets will slow down the muzzle velocity enough to keep your pellets from tumbling through the air, hence increasing your accuracy. Faster is not necessarily better. Keep it under 800fps. This pellet does just that. You will notice a HUGE increase in accuracy.

They seem to fly wierd, at 40 yrds my best prone supported group was 4in. At 80 yrds it was close to 7in. They seem to fly up first then slope down after 40 yrds. They do not shoot flat at all. They also seem to be a little to tight in my barrel. I shot 400 of these trrying to work it out but they just dont work for the bam b30-1.:( i shot some of my crossmans and i was getting my usuall accuracy so i dunno. just my experience.

I setup several tests (distance, different size boards, phone book, etc.) in which I compared this pellet with the Crow-Magnum and the Silver Bear. To sum it up, the Kodiak had far better penetration on every test, including blowing nice clean holes right through boards up to 3/8" thick. I shot consistent groups of 2' at 60 feet (Because of transfer, my gun isn't as accurate with larger slower pellets). Things I would have changed:Nothing, this pellet does exactly what it was designed to do. As a matter of fact, I'm ordering some more as soon as I finish this review. What others should know:On a side note, the Crow-Magnum did by far the most damage on every test. The Silver Bear is smaller, faster, and much more accurate (at least in my gun). However, the Silver Bear couldn't compare to the other two in damage or penetration. I keep all three rounds in stock to cover all my shooting needs.

Things I would have changed:-Make them in a tin of 500
-Make these in a 18grain for a bit more speed What others should know:I bought these for my new RWS 460 magnum as a high powered rifle is recommened for these. Even with the power the 460 is putting out, this pellet really drops after 35 yds, but the knockdown power is awsome. While doing some comparisons with the crow magnum, RWS superdomes, these went about 3/4-1 inch further into a phone book. At ten feet these blew through a 2x4! They mushroom but because of their weight, they hold their shape compared to all others that seemed to fragment. Kind of a like a nosler partition.
These take a magnum rifle to fire.
