Page 8 - Crosman Destroyer .177, .177 Reviews

The Penetration is amazing. It is very accurate shoots true and is well balanced.

I got a few pellets with dented skirts but no big deal. Making these in a bigger caliber would be amazing.

I am dropping rabbits like flies. [] Very good pellet for those pesky varmits and well worth every penny. It's too bad im moving up to a .22 :(

Penetration and expansion. the shape is very cool

Weight and the quantity in th tin

BUY THEM!!! THEY ARE GREAT FOR HUNTING!!!!

suprising penetration for a hollowpoint pellet, front rim sheers off to creat impact but pointed base continues on to the vitals, accuracy off the scale at medium to short ranges, price is great

more to a tin other than that nothing,

lethal on ground squirrels and grackels, hits with a very loud THWACK!!!

the impact of the target,today i just a rabbit through the neck,wow,the pellet hit ,it made impact noise,which tells you its a knockdown kill.WOW amazing,the entrance wounds are massive,humongos..YUP FOLKS THIS AMMO IS THE BEST...

NOTHING

THA NAME DISCRIBE EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW...

Very accurate pellet. Good for long range(40-50 yds) shots on birds. Very durable pellet the shape helps in penatation, and has great stopping power. I have only used this pellet for Starling hunting, but confident that it would work on other animals also.

500 count tins would be nice.

Have noticed that this pellet has a greater chance of deflecting off of objects more than any other pellet I shot. So be careful in tight areas!

The best kept secret in the Crosman line of pellets. I've used several different Crosmans, but I always go back to these. Being a hunter/plinker, their accuracy is close enough for my needs. Not the olympic precision target shooters look for, but a great pellet all the same. Where some pellets will fly through both sides of a juice can, the Destroyers will slap it off the board with incredible impact and authority!Water filled or empty! Great for both Benjis and 1000 fps rated rifles.

More pellets to the tin....better yet, sell them in the half-pint containers like other Crosmans available on the market!!

The semi wad-cutter shape really utilizes the rifleing for maximum performance. I also like the fact that they slide into the breech with out forcing them to "seat" straight. Just be careful that they don't slip back out on break-barrels. Not very often does this happen, just keep your eyes on them. Anyone using a good air-rifle knows that the barrel tappers to the muzzle, so don't let this "ease of loading the breech" deter you from trying them out.

Hands down, the very best pellet I've ever used. It is painfully accurate at the outer fringes of range on my Daisy PowerLine 1000 and is quite deadly. I've never seen a more effective and humane round.

More ammo!

Definite must-have for hunters using .177.

These hit hard. Knocked down Jackrabbits and slammed a pegion off of a ledge. We are in Iraq taking care of the varmit problem on base.

expansion is great and the quality

more in each tin

at 410fs they mushroomed completely just think what it would do at 1000fs

The consistency is quite good, as I found none deformed in the tin.

Slightly increase the the skirt diameter to fit the bore more snugly, and I am certain that the groups would shrink in size.

I managed to put 5 inside 0.7" @ 25 yards with my CFX.

Expansion is positive at impact speeds around 600 FPS and explosive at impact speeds around 900 FPS or higher. I shot some overripe tomatoes on the vine and they blew to teeny bits on impact. Wadcutters only made cracks appear around the entry hole on the tomatoes. Pest control with a Beeman R9 on English Sparrows was quite impressive. There was a quite loud CRACK on impact with the chest of the sparrows and there was a very large exit wound on all subjects.

Accuracy was OK, but less than what I generally get with most other pellets. It was on par with "plinking" pellet accuracy. For example, on a 10M air rifle target, I was able to hold the 6 ring with my R7 and R9 off the bench. These rifles will regularly shoot 10's or at least 9's off the bench with preferred pellets. If you can't get super-fine accuracy, it's going to limit your maximum usable range.

The pellets seem quite loose in all airguns I tried. I tried several rifles from the Beeman R series, a Benjamin/Sheridan Sterling, as well as a few different Crosman models. The pellet simply fell into the breech on all guns. Expansion is limited to the ring around the point of the pellet. Max diameter of the pellet is a function of the height of the ring. Fold the ring out flat, that's as wide as the pellet is going to get. At higher impact speeds, the ring strips off leaving what amounts to a pointed pellet with a reduced head diameter.
