Things I liked:

At last, I have found the 'magic bullet' for my Crossman Extreme G-1. It is the first pellet (after purchasing 6-8 others) that fits in the barrel like a well tailored glove. Every pellet slips in beautifully. With my first tin I am bragging most strikes within 3/4 inch at just under 25 yds. Those that falling outside this dimension, I suspect are due to my hold that to pellet size/weight differences. A penetration test against the next leading contenders at 12 yds suggested that this pellets was better also at making its way into the pages of an old encyclopedia.

Things I would have changed:

Absolutely nothing.

What others should know:

PryamidAir should consider offering more custom sampler packs of identical caliber pellets to save shooters time and money at finding the 'magic bullet'. for their guns. No fair making them buy an extra $40 - $60 of poorly performing pellets.

Things I liked:

Well packaged, clean, very few deformed skirts.

Things I would have changed:

If claiming to be 4.52mm headsize? shouldn't these measure close to the advertised/marked size? Using a quality digital caliper and checking its' operational measurement against a mm scale, I found these pellets to much smaller headsize than 4.52mm. After measuring at least 2-3 dozen pellets randomly removed from the tin, NOT a one measured 4.52! Most were 4.46-4.48. Very disappointed.

What others should know:

These pellets did not shoot well from my R9, they loaded very loosely, which alerted me to measure the headsize, finding they were (all that I measured) much smaller than tin marked/advertised.

    Things I liked:

    Better quality control than standard JSB, very few slightly damaged skirts but all shootable. Minor sorting when loading can result in amazing 50 yard groups from a sub 12 ftlb bsa ultra se. Even at a low velocity of 750fps spinner hits out to 75 yards are the norm ( reading the wind with sub 12 ftlb .177 is critical) I have found this to be the most accurate pellet in my RWS outlaw as well as fx t 12 the later two are pushing 18 ftlb.

    Things I would have changed:

    Absolutely nothing.

    What others should know:

    All of my shipments of pellets have arrived so well packaged FEDx was unable to damage them. All jokes aside PA has listened and provides the best packaging in the industry when it comes to pellets.

    Things I liked:

    These are my current favorite pellet. The round nose punches an easily scored target with less tear-out than flat nosed pellets. They are slightly larger than some other brands and tend to load and fit my barrels well.

    Things I would have changed:

    The weights of the pellets in the tin vary from 0.52 to 0.57 grams. I selected those of 0.55 grams for precision shooting.

    Things I liked:

    I love these pellets. I bought these in 4.51 for my Gamo Swarm Maxim. It loves them super accurate and consistent. I also cannot say enough about the customer service. Super helpful, good communication and very speedy service.

    Things I would have changed:

    I guess a screw lid would be helpful but that is all.

    What others should know:

    Great accuracy in my Diana 34 Classic. Consistent dime size groups and under at 35 measured yards. Lethal on varmints and pest to 50 yards however I consider 40 to 45 yards as my max hunting range. This pellet is a perfect match of effectiveness and accuracy in my rifle.

    Things I liked:

    Dime size groups at 25 yards, With a $99 break barrel. With an occasional flyer. Great pellets!

    Things I would have changed:

    What can you do? Some loose fitting pellets and in the bunch. But not enough to deter me from purchasing again.

    What others should know:

    Shoots very similar to JSB exact 8.44gr. Possibly made in the same factory. Hard to discern which of the two is better. JSB seems to be more consistent in size. If You can't get the JSB Exact 8.44gr, I would buy these.

    Fantastic accuracy in Diana 52 in 177, Great price!!! Nice tin.

    Things I would have changed:

    I would like to have 10,000 for free.

    What others should know:

    I tried many pellets in diana 52 in 177. Super domes did great (3\8 inch at 15 yds, Then I tried JSB in the same weight.Group shrank to 1\4 inch at 15 yards with .451 head size. When I tried these in .452 head size they stack on top of each other. Shot a quail at 55 yds and besides a handfull of quail at about the same distance. Rabbits at around 50 yards is no problem at all. When pellets pass through game they go whizzing off into the brush. A golfball is my 50 yard practice target and it is nearly a 100% hit rate. Bought 3k when I found they shoot so great. Gotta love it.
