Page 6 - Crosman Premier .22, .22 Reviews

These and the Hollow Points are my preference for sighting my air rifles in. I like the weight, velocity, and the shallow depth of the skirt cavity, which promotes low drag in flight, enhancing higher velocity at distance. Great coefficiency. Screw on tins, caliber and head size on tin, the harder lead and solid head for less expansion and deeper penetration, and hits like a bullet. The 500 tin count for less than $10.00.

Nothing.

Very accurate, no damaged or bent skirts, and no fliers. Truly a five star pellet.

Most accurate pellet I've found for my Benjamin Marauder. I've compared to a variety of pellets from H&N and JSB, but these have consistently provided tighter groups out to 50 yards, and they are much less expensive.

Not much

I have always used Crosman Premeir pellets in my other airrifles RWS 34 / Beeman R 9. Always consistent groupings

I wish they would make The tins larger IE: 750 count

You cant go wrong with Crosman primier Pellets

Going through my pellet "collection" I realized I did not have any domed pellets. Lots of hollowpoints , pointed and others but no domed. Always had good luck with Crosman pellets and these are no exception. While they worked "ok" in a couple of my rifles, They really shined in my Beeman RS2 set up in 22 caliber. Another kudo to them for putting on a screw on lid!

Not much, only found a couple of pellets with skirt damage/deformation.

Pyramyd did a great job of packaging these pellets to minimize shipping damage.

Appears to be a good lighter pellet though a heavier one could be more accurate. I found the JSB exact to have fewer jams and extremely accurate in my Diana storm rider gen 3.

Nothing

14.3 grain too light for this powerful rifle (860 FPS)

Good price. Pellets seem uniform and good packaging.

Nothing

Occasionally a pellet tears the paper. This is typical of a pellet tumbling. It can probably be attributed to a less than perfect skirt. That said these pellets work well for my use. The gun is a Gamo Swarm Maxxim in .22.

Good performance for the money. Domed pellets are good general use pellets.

Not much to change, they are good value for the money.

I tend to run these thru all my airguns first doing a shakedown break in. have had some air rifles that loved these more than others. But each airgun is different. Bore size is the key and these are mostly consistent size and shoot well.

This happens to be the pellet that works best in my gun. Screw on lid. Yes!

Nothing

Cheap reliable and easy to find in stores

This is a good inexpensive general round for target and small pest control. This round generally did not do well at longer distances on most of my PCP airguns, but when I tested with the Hatsan Flash .22 I got pretty good grouping 25 - 35 yards (dime to quarter) and acceptable grouping at 50 yards (1.5"<).

The pellets could be a little cleaner, always a lot of loose lead particles in the can and inside the skirts. You usually can blow it off, but not always.

I would get just one tin to test with, and if you find a winning combo, these are reasonable enough to use for everyday general shooting.

Good price, consistent, plentyful

nothing

Good price per shot, pretty consistent shape.

Nothing

With the Benjamin Roge NP2 .22 the best group I could get at 25 yards was 2.5 inches.

Accuracy, velocity, and grain weight of 14.3 grains. The design: shallow skirt that does not extend into the dome/head of pellet, making it low drag. The dome/head is solid, will not expand/mushroom as much as other pellets. When this pellet hits, it hits hard, smashing through bone, penetrating further than mushrooming pellets. The shallow, low drag skirt, allows the Premier pellets to have and maintain a higher velocity, at more distance, over other pellets that have a deeper skirt cavity that creates more drag. 500 for less than $10.00. Accuracy and velocity. The screw on lids on tins. The red, white, and blue color tins that say, Made in USA.

NOTHING!

Look at Straight Shooters Umarex Octane Pellet Tests. Tested were over 25 pellets in both calibers, .177 and .22 calibers. Velocities tested were: muzzle, 10 yds, 25 yds, and 50 yds. Ballistic coefficiency was also tested. The comparison was very interesting. Tom Gaylord said good things about the Crosman Premiers in his Academy article on pellets. My go to pellets.

Everything

Nothing

good value for money

i test the head size by Pellet Gage, most of them are 5.54mm to 5.53 mm for your reference.
I didn't make a full accuracy test yet, but seem not too bad

Clean, tough skirt (seems to have less damage in container than flimsy skirts), consistent groups.

More pellets in a can.

Find YOUR sweet pellet. These work for me. They pimp the hollow points, but those do not work for me. Use the one that hits the mark. If you miss... it is cheaper to throw a stone... ;o)

good value pellet

increase size uniformity

shoots pretty well in everything I own

A good shooting pellet and a good value for the money.

Nothing.

These are a good old standby pellet. For the money they're hard to beat.

He's work great in my Crosman 1322

Nothing

This is a pretty good pellet for the money. Shoots pretty well in many different air guns.

These shoot very nice, group perfectly out of both my .22 cal gamo guns (swarm and urban22), uniformed, cheap $ compared to some of the other options.

Nothing

Try these out!

these are the most accurate ammo in my .22 caliber air rifles......makes target shooting affordable.

even lower price HA!

pay attention when you pick them out of the can ...of course at this price you can't expect every pellet to be perfect.
