Size consistency

In my experience, size consistency is poor. Every other pellet fits loose and I have alot of flyers. Crosman premier is much more consistent and more accurate.

I shoot a 22 caliber AirArms TX-200 which is a springer. Even though the tin indicates this is a PCP pellet, it performs very well in my TX. I've tested probably a dozen different pellet types. All were quality made... no Walmart specials. All guns perform differently but for my gun, and for the money, this is the best pellet I've seen. They fit the breech smoothly and consistently. I've shot probably 4 tins. My experience is that they go where you shoot them. My chronograph tests also show excellent velocity consistency... comparable to the best AirArms pellets.

I think the only improvement would be to add upper and lower foam cushions in the tin for extra protection. AirArms does this with their pellets. It's been awhile since I've purchased new ones but I don't believe Benjamin does.

They shoot very well up to 25 yards I have not shot them beyond that distance

They have a few Flyers

The gun I shot these through is a Umarex gauntlet

Nothing

What I truly like is the price for the amount of pellets you get, 500 and in the Benjamin Marauder the are fairly accurate and in the rotary magazine they fit nicely, while other heavier pellet give a problem to the rotary magazine.

Nothing, if any change it could come in a solid pellet but I don't know if would affect accuracy.

The price is right for what you pay and it comes with 500 hundred pellets, plus it also comes in a metal tin with a screw cap.

This is the best pellet I've seen for the price. Consistency and accuracy are very good in my AirArms TX-200. I've tried more expensive pellets that don't perform as well.

Nothing. Excellent pellet for this price point.

these are in a good tin and are well made and are great shooting pellets very accurate too

nothing

get these as they shoot and fly well and are good for small game hunting

Accurate, hard hitting, great price. Quickly dispatches a backyard squirrel with a head shot or hit a 1" steel hanging target at 25 yds with my Crosman Remington Nitro Piston Air Rifle. Enough said.

Would change nothing.

Great service & fast shipping from Pyramyd Air.

These pellets are the most consistent pellets for the price

Nothing

Tried the .22 Benjamin Discovery in a Marauder Pistol and groups were poor compared to the H&N Barracuda Match. The pellets will not work in the Browning 800 Express, since the pellets fall through the barrel if pointed at the ground before firing.

Detailed dimensions, especially head diameter.

Be aware of the small head dimension.

seems nice shoots well

nothing

This product Is a heavy walled hollow point which I would recommend for larger small game. It is expanding relatively deep and holding together very well while producing good penetration in my test median. I would be confident with this product anywhere from 600 to 1000 fps. I almost forgot to mention the accuracy was exceptional. Nothing would be considered usable to me without that.

Shipping is jacking up the price a bit to much for my liking but not a game changer

accuracy, impacts with nice punching power, and priced reasonably

Leave it alone it's perfect, especially for its price range.

This is a nice and noticeable step up from the Crossman Premier (which I love). This is my go to ammo for standard target practice and hunting. The weight and grain count pair perfectly with my Crossman Vantage Nitro.

seem to be good quality, no deformities.

these look EXACTLY like the crosman branded pellets that i can get at wally world for about 1/3 the price.

I have only positive comments for this brand and style of pellets. They function perfectly in both my Marauder rifle and pistol (as they should).

Grouped very well out of a Marauder .22 caliber at 25 and 50 yards. A great value considering the accuracy and budget cost.

Too dirty to use. You need gloves or wash your hands frequently because of lead residue. I would anticipate lead build-up in the barrel with continued usage.

Not much. Came in tin of 500 from Big Box Store. .

Eliminate hollow point. Make pellets more uniform.

Ran out of my Barracuda Greens and Predator Polys a week or so ago and have since placed another order with PA. Anyway, I sighted these in at 23 yards and they didn't group as well as many others I've tried but were plenty accurate (3/4") to hunt small game. What really made my mind up is their poor terminal performance and poor penetration. Rabbits and squirrels were no problem with my other hunting pellets using my .22 Titan and NP, but these didn't get the job done. They don't penetrate far enough using medium power air rifles. Won't ever buy again. They're alright as spares, but I won't use them to hunt anymore.

These pellets shot better than most in my .22 Marauder, but not as well as Crosman Premier Domes

Accurate - Very accurate out of my Air Arms TX200

Quality Control - Quite a few pellets where dented and many fit very tightly or too loosely in the rifle.

Overall, good pellets.
