Page 2 - Benjamin Cylindrical .20, .20 Reviews

Excellent replacement of the old yellow box ashcans. These are accurate in my 1985 stock Silver Streak. These can shoot one-hole 5 shot groups at 25 ft in my garage shooting range using 5 pumps.

Nothing I can see so far. Perhaps a 2000 count bulk box for target shooters with a competitive price point.

I powder coat my pellets with technical grade moly/artist grade graphite for lube and lead proofing my fingers. Moly/graphite is non-toxic and easy to wash off.

shoot great in my silver streak.

nothing

these are good pellets for your sheridan rifles.

I have 22 Air Guns, 20 are Pump guns like Benjamin, and Sheridan. These seem to hit a can size target out of my OLD Silver and Blue Streak Sheridans Consistantly, at 60 feet with open sights. Work Great for My Vintage .20 Calibers.

These work great in the Vintage .20 Caliber Sheridans.

Screw top can.

Bring back .20 Crosman Dome and rename to Sheridan. Junk this design.

AWFUL PELLET! My 1978 Sheridan hated these and flung them wide and low. Crosman was trying too hard to recall the old Bantam 5 design. I also read this was designed to better able modern Crosman tooling to make this. Since this is often the only .20 pellet avail at most retail stores, its likely what killed the Sheridan name. My Sheridan favors the JSB but very much liked the discontinued .20 Crosman dome at closer ranges and held the same as the JSB. This design MIGHT be suited to supersonic use due to its odd shape, but I doubt it worth keeping in the Crosman line-up.

Accurate , nice weight , good tin with a screw on lid , 500 pellets.

Price seems a little high-your paying for the benjamin name.

These pellets do not work well in the air force talon unless you push them farther in the breach i switched to the beeman silver arrow witch seat much better-they fit tight. These are mostly made for benjamin air rifles.

Accuracy, consistency, power. I have been using these pellets for 35 years in my Sheridan Silver Streah, and they can shoot one hole groups at 30'. The last tin I bought are just as good as the older tins. Great product.

Lower the price.

These are good all around pellets, for hunting, target shooting, and just fun.

They work great in my Crosman Remington NPSS 177. 10 meter 1/8 inch group and holds true a 20meter (1.4 inch). Good Price too.

Nothing

Purchased a rebuilt Sheridan Blue Streak and was given a few of these to try until I could get some. One doesn't find them in stores where I live. I could not believe the accuracy. Great in my 2 Blue Streaks.

Nothing

As I said above, normally don't find them locally. I ordered 3 and got 4. Good deal.

excellent pellet

need a pointed pellet in .20 cal. punehes paper cleaner

best I could find for my purposed.

Very well formed and I like the fat waist profile.

Head and skirt O.D.

These pellets are simply too small in bore size for the .20 cal Beeman R9. They fall into the breech with no resistance at all. Group sizes so large I had a hard time keeping them on paper at 30 yds. These pellets must be made for the Sheridan Blue Streak CB9.

I shoot these in a Beeman R7 and they work great!!! I can place shots where I want in a 3/8" circle at 28ft w/ 9x scope until no ink of the target remains. They used to be the less expensive pellet choice at around $9 per 500. Now I see they cost more. Glad I bought ten tins when I did. I also like the tin; the top is threaded and doesn't fall off and the edges are textured so there is some grip for twisting it on and off.

Nothing.

Other pellets that have worked well in my R7: JSB Exact, Beeman FTS, Beeman Kodiak. Some that didn't work as good: Beeman Silver Sting, Beemnan Silver Bear. And one that didn't work at all: Crossman Premier Hollow Point. Hpoe this helps.

Everything is like specify in the product description.

The shipping take a little long

Very good pellet, works quite well in my Sheridan Blue and Silver Streaks, 609-611 & 605-609 fps with 8 pumps in both rifles, very consistant, will group >3/4" @ 25 yards if I do my part.

Nothing.

I love the shape and heft of these pellets, they hit with a nice solid thwack. My old Sheridans love these.

The price, I used to pay 3 bucks for 500 Sheridan pellets in the yellow plastic box. I know that was a few years ago (30-40) but these are more than 4 times more in price. The rifle itself has only gone up about 2.5 times in price in that time.

Always wear eye protection when shooting.

Tin

Do not buy these for your .20 cal hw97k..

Excellent weight, these hit very hard without slowing down the velocity too much. Accuracy at 40 yards is decent, and you can easily use this pellet for squirrel or rabbit hunting within that range.

Nothing. I used to shoot the old Sheridan brand cylindrical pellets, many years ago, and those were good to about 25 yards before flying wildly off target. This new style shape is a huge improvement and extends your effective range about ten yards at least (when shot from a old '79 Silver Streak).

I have never tried these in a modern air rifle. I am basing my review entirely on their performance when shot from my 1979 C series Sheridan Silver Streak pneumatic. Overall, I give these pellets an excellent rating--Accuracy, Velocity, and Uniformity of shape, all very good to excellent.

Price. Accuracy. Scew on lid.

Nothing

I have a Blue Streak Sheridan and these pellets shoot great.

Ballistic coefficient says it all! These perform well at longer distances and are consistent in the old Sheridans. The original pellets with the ring around the base were better, but these are as good as it gets for general application that I can find.

Not going to happen, but going back to the original mold for these pellets would be an improve worth paying for.

They're best bang for buck for our .20's no question about that...

They're too slim, yes - even for my Sheridan!

Beyond 35 yards I was getting some hairball looking flyers - I'll settle back down on my 25 and get these dialed in.

price

diamiter

I bought these to try in my airforce talon ss. Its one of the only pellets I have tried that will absolutely not shoot tight groups in my rifle. They fit too loosely in the bore. They are probably an outstanding pellet if shot in a pump Benjamin/Sheridan rifle. PCP Talon ss does not like them.
