Page 5 - Crosman Destroyer .177, .177 Reviews

extremely consistent..round after round in my HW-35.Absolutely devastating to squirrels and rabbits. and at MEYERS only $2.00 for a tin of 250

more per tin

try them,I find them better then H&N match

The shape, and the price

Try a different approach as far the expansion cup, It expands very rapidly (proven in my Ballistic Gel Tests) but the problem is that outer edge around the inner pointed tip consistently Tears from the rest of the pellet after 4 inches of penetration (proven in my Ballistic Gel Tests) leaving only a pointed pellet decreased in diameter to penetrate the target completely, which is the complete opposite of what a hollow point pellet is supposed to do in the first place.

Expansion isnt that great read paragraph above if you havent already

EMPACT-77 BEING A LONG TIME AIR GUNNER ,and shooting these guns for a very long time i found these rounds are a good mix of the new tecnological advanstadsment . in my gamo socom extrem they are now my standerd round they are a nice long range round many of my shot are over 50 yds from woodchucks to crows ,the damage that they do is as advertised to me there are like ploymgags made of lead .crosman keep up the good work!

make the point a litte longer make the cont 500 maybe add a half of a gram of weight

they make on heck of a hole the skirt peels back very nicely

Almost as accurate as Premier hollow point.

Extend center point protrusion. Current configuration may contribute to air resistance.

Did two day side-by-side comparison using stand to steady barrel, quality dot sight, and controlled breathing. Grouping almost as tight as Premier hollow point. Deformation on impact as opposed to Prmier deformation on penetration.

These fit really nicely into my Gamo Silent Cat. They are really accurate and can hold a decent group. I'm very happy with these. Screw on lid.

Wish they sold these at 500ct. I'm going through them quick. Could be a little cheaper.

I love that these have AMAZING accuracy, just like a flat head or wadcutter while still having that devastating tip on the front of it.

I would like a cheaper price and maybe a tin of 500?

These have amazing expansion. I shot a feral pigeon from about 20 yards out of my Benjamin 397 and when i was preparing my kill for dinner I noticed that the pellet had fully expanded and i measured it and fully expanded, its radius was .40 caliber! Thats amazing! Ohh, and also remember to always wash a new tin of pellets with soap and water to get rid of excess oils and bits of lead.

These pellets are excellent for pest control and hunting applications. they are a great mix of the penetration of a pointed pellet and the explosive knock-down power of a hollow-point.

I wish they were not as oily when you first open them. It gets all over your fingers and will stain your clothes.

These pellets are a great choice for general shooting and hunting.

great noc down force, nice and heavy, not all deformed, cheap

nothing

great for shooting cans,

Crosman has really hit the mark with this pellet design. It's very stable in flight .It's weight and shape account for superb accuracy ! My rifles and my pistols perform very well with this pellet. I've tried many different types and weights of pellets in my guns and if I had to choose only one this would be it.

A coating to keep lead residue from getting on your hands.

Buy 3 and get one free, you will be happy you did.

the expansion of this pellet is nothing short of impressive and the penetration after that is not bad either.

more per tin

these are a great overall pellet. they have the hollow point to cause great damage and knockdown power to devastate smaller targets- they turn the insides of chipmunks to mush. the point gives them the ability to penetrate deep into larger targets. ive taken everything from sparrows to 2 opossums

Good mushrooming and knockdown under 15yds couldn't keep tight groups. probably because every third pellet in the tin was deformed and had to force into the barrel!!!!

Quality control.

I won't buy them again but if you want A good wack @ short range buy'em.L

These pellets are great for expansion. One of the best pellets I ever shot. Also I did not find any misshape pellets in the tin.

I would make it 500 pellets, not 250.

Expansion is great, accurate enough for tight groups.

Nothing.

Work well in the crosman 2100b. The crosman hollow points shot a little better but these expand more.

the over all design of the pellet and it's functionality.

make 500 per tin not 250.

This pellet works very well in most of my .177s it is to small diameter to fit in to my 60yr old USSAR air rifle, but they work very well in the Desert Eagle that pyramydair sells.

decent accercy great penetration and great expansion

nothing

Great accuracy and expansion! Pellets shot into a gallon jug of water expanded to around 1.5 times original diameter, and some I fired into unripe grapefruit from my tree penetrated the first 2 completely and expanded into a cone shape with the hollowpoint rim intact neat the bottom of the skirt almost all the way through the third one. The grapefruit were also split open from the energy transfer. I haven't used them for hunting, but I assume the results would be devestating on small game. My Crosman Phantom rifle prints 1" or smaller groups with these at 50-60 feet, using a Tasco 3-7x 20 mm scope. All 500 pellets I have fired so far have a nice, snug fit in the breech- I haven't encountered one that is a loose fit yet. These are my #1 choice for all- around .177 airgun ammo.

A large bulk package would be nice- although the price is great as-is!

Definitely worth the money- especially if you have a Crosman Phantom break-barrel like I do!

love the way it deformed when shot into a 5 inch block of soft clay from my old benjamin at full capacity. it turned almost inside out and ended up looking like a cone afterwards. meaning tha the rim was around the base of the skirt.

more in a tin or lower the price.

these work best in a rifled air gun. if you are using the bb/pellet guns, chances are that they are un rifled.

Clean, extremely accurate, great quantity for the price.

Nothing!!!

I can make a half inch group a 20 yards, easy.

Lots of value for the dollar here, devastating on game, groups just as well out of my Quest 1000 as the Premier hp's at 30 yards, they expand pretty well

The EX version of this pellet can't be 7.9 gn, but a 9.5 gn version with a bit wider of a point and thicker skirts would be nice

These pellets seem to slow down quickly so don't plan on doing much hunting with them, they would be better suited for back yard pest control. Shot a sparrow from about 10 yards and it didn't lift a wing, just fell off the branch. The impact ruffled its feathers so much that it looked like its whole body had been back combed, just a round puff ball

Reai uniform. Accurate in a rifled barrel. At high velocity they will expand. In the ones I've recovered, it seems the outer rim opens up, but they still penetrate pretty good. In my Beeman SR2 they will explode a soda can full of water. I have not had a chance to use them on game yet. Real reasonable price.

Nothing that I can think of, maybe larger quanities. Make some in .22 cal.

In my Crosman 760 they are not too accurate, smooth bore and all. But I can hit a soda can at 20 yards or so. But these are cheap enough shoot a lot if you like them.
