Air Arms Falcon, .177 Reviews

VERY ACCURATE!! Best lighter domed pellet I’ve found.

Nothing

Shoots VERY WELL in all FWB pistols I own, two 65s and an 80.

All Air Arms pellets are among the best for their size and weights. These work perfect in my 10 meter guns and every other 1.77 gun. I have some CO2 pistols that are very pellet picky and all of them work fine with these. They are very consistent in size and weight. You can't blame these pellets for a bad shot. I shoot these with a RWS Diana 75 in 25 yard benchrest and expect a 10 on every shot.

Nothing.

Benchrest shooting at 25 yards with a RWS Diana 75 (recoilless 10 meter springer) this is a very accurate pellet, just as good as the JSB 7.33. This is what you expect from any Air Arms pellet made by JSB. I like that they have lot numbers on the tins.

Nothing!

They were cheaper than JSBs.

These pellets are of consistent and very good quality/manufacture. These pellets are very accurate in my Ruger 10/22 (from Umarex) at 15 yards and are hard hitting.

Nothing

These are accurate and hard-hitting pellets for .177 caliber.

Consistency is excellent!! The diameters are close to perfect. I don't know what JSB is doing but lately they are all over the place. If they are making these pellets the QA is better than their normal line. Have not tried the weight test because groups are so good I do not see the need. Purchased for Beeman P17. per some reviews and are spot on, but found they also are excelent in my Crossman 2300T. RWS Meisterkugeln"s is all it shot good but not great. These Falcons put them to shame. Beeman AR2078B one hole groups just as H&N FMT. Then tried in my new HW50 From PA. I was blown away. Still learning how to shoot the baby with sugested H&N FTT. 4.52. These produce one hole groups with Williams Iron peep sight if I do my part. Max Wacking power of 11.6+ ft lbs. Iguanas and rats better leave town, if I can get within 20 yards its dirt nap time.

Screw top tins!!!!!

As a life long target shooter rifle and pistol. I know the importance of Consistant diameters in projectiles. Some complain of the cost of these pellets. Getting center eating groups with no fliers is so rewarding and worth every penny. .22 LR match ammo is about 50+ cents a round now. even they have fliers. It costs 3.4 cents a round for these with shipping included. If you get 3 tins and enjoy PA's one free. Not much to complain about for me. Kudos to PA for their excelent method of shipping. They arive in the best condition posible. After learning the hard way form other vendors shipping practice during the pellet shortages. PA is my goto sorce.

Accuracy

More pellets in the tin for the same price

These appear to be JSBs in rebranded tin at 15% cheaper

The only thing I can say about these pellets is they work fine. I tried them in me Beeman R1 and Crosman 2300S and held tight groups at 35 feet.

Nothing to change, they work.

The pellets fit the chamber well.

all fine

Accuracy out of the pin is good!

These very consistently sized and excellently packaged pellets did exactly what I bought them for by performing accurately just under the sound barrier in my break barrel springer. This modified GAMO Hunter Extreme (Shortened bore and ported) is too loud for my backyard with anything lighter than this great pellet, and in my opinion, too slow shooting anything heavier. This is the "Goldilocks" pellet for this rifle....its just right!

Nothing

Experiment with various pellets before settling for one weight and brand. While investing in a sizer and chronograph is worth it for the serious shooter, the size of the shot groups at your desired range is the ultimate criteria for selecting the best pellet. Good shooting!

I purchased this pellet for use in my modified Beeman P-17 pistol. I upgraded it by re-barreling with a Daisy Powerline bbl shrouded with a 3/8" OD pipe cut to 11.5 inches which is just short enough to clear the trigger guard during cocking. I ported the barrel for more accuracy. It had performed well with another brand of 7.33 gr lead pellet producing a 450 fps (up from 400 fps) and accurate shot in this single stroke pneumatic. I didn't think I could improve either the speed or accuracy but was wrong. The Falcon consistently produced greater accuracy and velocities of 455 fps. I am not sure why as I made weight and head diameter were the same. Perhaps its just better lead? I really don't care why its a better pellet that much...it just IS!

Nothing

If you are going to review a product be as specific as possible. The more general the review the less useful the information. BTW These pellets shot from the modified P-17 readily punched holes in steel mushroom cans at thirty yards. And NO! I own almost no airguns, bows, arrows, or firearms that I haven't modified in some fashion! LOL

I'm mainly a target shooter. Air Arms pellet is equal to JSB. Manufacture is above grade. Flight stability is top shelf grade. I highly recommend this pellet shape and weight for target shooting and pest control. You won't be disappointed.

I wouldn't change a thing. Is really a top shelf grade pellet.

Is great for pest control. Very accurate. As with all pellets occasional flier. But very few.

Dime sized groups at 25m out of my Beeman R7

Nothing

Not the same pellet as JSB 7.33

These pellets are very consistent in my Diana. I have read tons of reviews concerning pellets. Being rather new to the sport, I thought trying different pellets would be good advice. I mostly shoot paper, like to see tight groups. Shooting these from a Diana 34, I get good groups at 35 yards. I can cover a group of five with a dime. So I think that is pretty good. Pellets are not dusty and haven't found any with a bent skirt.Yet. Haven't had any fliers so far. These pellets don't fit tightly into the barrel like the H and N Baracuda .

Everybody who shoots pellet guns know that some guns favor one pellet over another. I haven't shot this pellet in any of my other .177 guns and they may not shoot as well in another. These pellets are worth a try in your gun.

My 2nd CMP Daisy 853 shoots 10 of these pellets into a 0.25" group at 54 feet. This is not just a "one time group". Most of the groups are 0.25". These are the most accurate pellets for my 853 of the 7 types that I have tried in this 853.

I wish they were cheaper, but for this accuracy they are still a bargain, especially if you buy 4 and pay for 3 plus shipping less the 10% PYRAMYD-NRA discount.

In some guns the JSB 8.44 and 7.33 shoot more accurately.

I took a shot at a large/ full size crow at 50 yards, with the browning break barrel pistol (750fps) and when, the air arms 7.33 grain domed pellet struck the crow, it was dead on impact! It was dead, before it even hit the ground!!! I was truely amazed at the quality, accuracy and killing power of these pellets, a must buy!

Tried these in a Crosman Nitro piston and they worked very good so I bought these in a 4.52 head size for my LGU. Let me just say they are one of the best pellets I have tried in that gun. On a no wind day I can hold a one inch group at 50yds. Sand bags and a Hawk Airmax scope does the trick with these pellets.

Change the can to a screw top.

After 50 yds., these tend to destabilize . They may not be heavy enough for the real long shots. Also, at 50yds. they don't have much energy left. I use them to hit empty 9mm cases so I don't need much energy.

very accurate.using in 1077 co2 rifle.

nothing

I originally bought a dozen tins ( 500 count ) of these and they were so outstanding that I contacted PA to see if they still had more of the same lot number and they said that they did. I ordered another dozen tins with that lot number and received exactly what I ordered. Awesome packing as usual.

Accuracy and the speed is just a tick below sound. Chrono at 1020fps, Almost through a 3/4 inch pine board, sticks out the back, at 15 yds.

Screw top lid

Very accurate in my Crosman Hunter Nitro Piston. Ragged hole groups at 25 yds and 2 inch , nice shape groups at 50 yds. Normally this light a pellet does not do good in a NP Break barrel. Hope this was not a fluke.

The way the lot number is on the bottom of the tin.

Nothing

These are the best, most consistent tins of 7.33 pellets I have ever purchased. All 12 tins are from the same lot number. It shows the importance of putting lot numbers on the bottom of tins. I can order more of the same lot number, if they are still available.
