... Read MoreThings I liked:Very good quality control (unlike Permier SuperPoint) with unique qualities unlike other pellets. First, the sharp point pierces soft targets. Then, the remainder of the face delivers a slap of brute force energy causing expansion to about 50% larger width than the original projectile width. This process of short penetration and expansion makes this an excellent pellet for close-range hunting. The projectile delivers a heavy punch without the risk of a though-and-through, such as might be found in a pointed pellet. Things I would have changed:Not much I would change. This is a specialized pellet for a specific purpose. It would be great if these were available copper coated or lead-free. What others should know:This pellet is exceptional due to the lead hardness level combined with the unique pellet shape. Of course, the lack of aerodynamics means this is not the round for long-range hunting. However, this has become my pellet of choice for handgun pest control in my Walther P99.

Things I liked:Great overall pellet with good expansion, accuracy, penetration, and quality control making it an ideal hunting pellet. The pellet has almost no burs and is almost seamless. They also look very cool. Things I would have changed:Maybe another 50 per tin for the same price. What others should know:Not really

Things I liked:They have very consistant shape and for 5 dollars you get 500 of them. I have yet to find any inconsistency in their shape and they hit hard.

They leave a much bigger hole in a soda can at 400ft than the crosman wadcutters do. Things I would have changed:More of a hollow point to it, its clearly got a hollowpoint to it, its just not very deep at all. What others should know:When I go shooting I use a Crosman XT Storm and these pellets are around 1000 ft per second in it. When firing they leave big holes in soda cans about a quarter inch straight through both sides. Even when firing through a milk jug filled with water they punch about a quarter inch hole clean through both sides and just keep going. Very good pellets especially for the price and quallity.

Things I liked:no inconsistency on shape Things I would have changed: they need to have a longer point and actually work as a hollowpoint What others should know:they get lead all over you and they arent very accurate...they dont work as a hollowpoint, from what ive seen, so they just slow down the fps and penatrate less

Things I liked:mushrooms out nice. available locally. Things I would have changed:drops off fast. not good for long range shooting What others should know:delivers a great punch at shorter ranges but not the best hunting round for anything bigger than a very fat squirell.

Things I liked: I think these are well worth the money! I'm surprised at how accurate they really are, especially in my Crosman 1377(they faired well in my Crosman G-1
too) They fit perfectly snug in both my Crosmans but had difficulty loading in my Gamo CFX - had good results with the Gamo too but it likes a heavier pellet. Things

Things I would have changed: More pellets per tin. Quality control, Some of the 'points' were not perfectly uniform but it's more cosmetic than anything else. All the skirts seemed perfectly unform. What others should know: Definitely going to stock up on these for the 1377 as it's the only pellet I use in it now.

Things I would have changed:Nothing w/this pellet. I shoot on a 15 yd. indoor range to zero in and then adjust for outdoo use. This pellet has shown to be very accurate in both rifles and pistols. What others should know:I normally adjust my sights with wadcutters and then work toward the pellet I intend to use based on the weapons purpose. So far these have worked very well in every application.
Can't wait for the .22 version!

Things I liked:very good penetration. just killed a big fox squirrel with it. when i pulled the pellet out it retained 90 percent of the shape.

I had shot these out of an RWS 36, Gamo 500 Sporter and a few others in the past and they work very well. These are not novelty pellets, they are great hunting/pest control pellets and print a nice group on paper as well. Not a match pellet but good enough for me!!

But so far lack of skirt has not affected my accuracy so its still the best pellet out there. What others should know:practice gun safety.this is an awsome pellet to have fun with but be careful .

Things I would have changed:Make 500- 1200 count tins/ boxes What others should know:I just received my .177 cal Crosman 2300T competetion pistol. At 22 feet the Beeman Silver bears , and RWS competetion wadcutters were doing a great job. Please read my 2 reviews on the 2300T when posted for full info . I finally made room in my basement to practice at the offical 25 foot mark. I was actually shooting at 261/2 feet to be exact. This is what impressed me about my new gun , and this ammo. I fired about 40-50 rounds of Beeman Silver Bears , and kodiak extra heavy pellets. I was using my favorite Gamo 5" targets. I hit the 1-9 and center ring every time , but the better part were not in the center 3 rings. After the use of the 40-50 rounds , I decided to change my ammo to the Destroyers. Note that I did NOT change the co2 cartdidge. I fired the destroyers until the co2 was down too far to be accurate. belieave it or not, I was able to fire about 30 rounds, and the thing is, I was far more in the center with the Destroyers. Don't get me wrong , I like and buy tons of Beeman pellets because they are great, but it wouldn't be right not to give Crosman their props for a Pellet that costs up to 60% less yet goes toe to toe with the higher end pellets.

Things I liked:The best kept secret in the Crosman line of pellets. I've used several different Crosmans, but I always go back to these. Being a hunter/plinker, their accuracy is close enough for my needs. Not the olympic precision target shooters look for, but a great pellet all the same.

... Read MoreThings I liked:The best kept secret in the Crosman line of pellets. I've used several different Crosmans, but I always go back to these. Being a hunter/plinker, their accuracy is close enough for my needs. Not the olympic precision target shooters look for, but a great pellet all the same. Where some pellets will fly through both sides of a juice can, the Destroyers will slap it off the board with incredible impact and authority!Water filled or empty! Great for both Benjis and 1000 fps rated rifles. Things I would have changed:More pellets to the tin....better yet, sell them in the half-pint containers like other Crosmans available on the market!! What others should know:The semi wad-cutter shape really utilizes the rifleing for maximum performance. I also like the fact that they slide into the breech with out forcing them to "seat" straight. Just be careful that they don't slip back out on break-barrels. Not very often does this happen, just keep your eyes on them. Anyone using a good air-rifle knows that the barrel tappers to the muzzle, so don't let this "ease of loading the breech" deter you from trying them out.

... Read MoreThings I liked:Expansion is positive at impact speeds around 600 FPS and explosive at impact speeds around 900 FPS or higher. I shot some overripe tomatoes on the vine and they blew to teeny bits on impact. Wadcutters only made cracks appear around the entry hole on the tomatoes. Pest control with a Beeman R9 on English Sparrows was quite impressive. There was a quite loud CRACK on impact with the chest of the sparrows and there was a very large exit wound on all subjects. Things I would have changed:Accuracy was OK, but less than what I generally get with most other pellets. It was on par with "plinking" pellet accuracy. For example, on a 10M air rifle target, I was able to hold the 6 ring with my R7 and R9 off the bench. These rifles will regularly shoot 10's or at least 9's off the bench with preferred pellets. If you can't get super-fine accuracy, it's going to limit your maximum usable range. What others should know:The pellets seem quite loose in all airguns I tried. I tried several rifles from the Beeman R series, a Benjamin/Sheridan Sterling, as well as a few different Crosman models. The pellet simply fell into the breech on all guns. Expansion is limited to the ring around the point of the pellet. Max diameter of the pellet is a function of the height of the ring. Fold the ring out flat, that's as wide as the pellet is going to get. At higher impact speeds, the ring strips off leaving what amounts to a pointed pellet with a reduced head diameter.
