Page 5 - Gamo Round .22, .22 Reviews

these work great in my old benjamin 3120. I know of no other current source for .22 round balls and I must be grateful for finding these at pyramid

nothing

The best thing I like is the round ball pellets are not directional. You do not have to take your eyes off the target to laod as with directional pellets thus alowing you to track small game and pests easily. Faster loading without looking at the pellet means able to track target on the move after a missed shot while reloading.

I would like to see these pellets made in .177 caliber.

Excelent pellets for a wide range of applications. I do not have any fancy equipment for testing the acuracy of the pellets but I was able to put a 10 shot grouping at 25 yards into an area covered by a dime with my Beeman Sportsman RS2 Series and a 4 x 32 scope with no bench rest.

Easy to load in my Webley pistol. penetration is deep and they are pretty accurate.

They will not load into either of my Crosman rifles, too large.

I will not buy again.

The only .22 ball you should get. Load faster in all guns. Heavy. They fly higher than a pellet in my .22 CO2 Pistols..i suppose that is like then "English" on a ball

Buy 2 tins. They go fast.

Very accurate balls

Make them perfectly round

Just buy them!

Whats not to like it's round

how could you change round

These little guys are just plain fun,feed great in any gun,plinking heaven

Freaking wicked power with these things. They fit a little too snug in the chamber, but when they came out I was putting them directly through my .5 inch plank fence at 25 yards.

These pellets fit too snug in my .22 cal Gamo shadow express. I had to tap them in with a spoon. When I shot they were 12 inches off my sight at 25 yards, but well grouped. Try and make then closer to the correct cal.

good finish. round shape should reduce wind drift. good penetration. almost no expansion in pine. low cost.

some rounds fit tight. others are excellent . if rounds extend out of chamber they wii be scarred when breech is closed resulting in flyers. some rounds are either out of round or oversize.

check round to ensure it does not extend out of chamber when loading into break barrel airguns such as my rws 34.

Great in my Benji 392. Excellant penatration and rather accurate out to about 70 yards. They fit really snug in Crosman .22cal barrels too.

Nothing.

No.

Same size and weight as the manfactures pellets.

Price

Very good for all air rifles that use balls.

Good penetration, seem accurate (I haven't shot many yet though, so no guarantee). In my limited experience they don't seem to offer anything that cheaper pellets can't offer except penetration. Definitely the quickest to load pellet.....

You'd think round balls would be easier to make then pellets, but judging by the price I guess not... Lower price would be nice.

They fit fine in my Discovery .22. I heard someone say they were tight and I was worried, but no problems here. I also heard people say they were loose, but they were just right.

The best slug round ive found for my shadow express shotgun. I can stack up to 4 in a single shell. Provides much better accuracy over pellets in the smooth bore shotgun barrel.

QUALITY CONTROL!!! they are not very consistent and i think would cause problems in any gun other than the gamo shotguns. have an option for a tin of 500.

The only reason they got an overall rating of 5 is because they are the best and most versitile solid round i know of for the gamo shotguns... i wouldnt want to shoot them from any rifled guns though. They are not perfect spheres... they are close but not perfect. fun plinking and squirrel round for my Shadow express. Others have talked about these jamming rifled guns so based on that i will save these exclusively for the shotgun.

Packing tin

I purchased them for my fifty-year-old Benjamin 22 cal ball rifle. They appear a little over sized compared to my old Benjamin ones and they jam in the breach and will not shoot.
They are not a replacement for Benjamin 22 cal round ammo.

Personally I like that these are the only lead rounds that fit my Crosman .22 bores. The 2289 and 392 Crosmans seem to have bores that are wider than other .22 bores that I have had. When you drop a ball into the breech and you can point the muzzle down and have the ball roll out, that is not promising for accuracy. These balls fit and sit securely.

More balls per tin.

Ease of loading, smack down energy, most penetration, devestating eliminator on small pests, squirrels and rabbits. More accurate than you would believe.

nothing

This a must have for the Crosman 2100 pump (I won't use bb's, it's rifled) as regular pellets are extremely hard/time consuming to load due the loading port being deep and small (tumblng) for even small fingers. I also outfit my Daisy .22 SG with them and shot a tree rat at 50 feet and litterly knocked it out of the tree it was bothering us from. Probably not so good in springers, as they could just roll too far as I have found out. Also, check out Pyramid's review and see how they out perform dome and pointed pellets. They do out perform and are just as accurate. They will turn the 2100 into what it was supposed to be. I will use in all my bolt action type air guns (single shot of course) with great performance.

the tin is great

the quality control from the factory. i have shot an entire tin of these and i really dont think that any two balls were the same.

if you do decide to shoot these make sure you know what your shooting at and whats behind it. once you pull the trigger it may hit close to where you want it and then again it may miss by three feet. good luck but i wouldnt recommend these to anyone!

penetration....consistency in size was pitiful

just that.....one fits tight in my springer(tech force 97)th next loose....DO NOT TRY THESE IN YOUR DISCOVERY..broke th bolt in mine..

inconsistent size transfers to poor accuracy..stick to premiers or rws

High penetration, fairly accurate, screw on lid.

500/Tin for the same price, seen as how they would be more inexpensive to make than diabolo pellets.

The penetration of the round balls is quite a bit higher than the diabolo pellets, but not quite as accurate.

Easy to load in the Crosman 2240 breech.Large holes on some sheet metal targets i set up and these dont tend to richochet but,do have a good back stop (old phone book in a cardboard box behind target) to collect rounds as not to contaminate area with lead.

If these lead balls were a little bigger they would have a snug fit.

If your air gun/lead balls have the same problem of rounds rolling out after loaded and tilted downward,Add 4-5 drops of pellgun oil to container with 10 -15 balls coated completely and this seems to keep them secure .

pefect shape work well in my viper express and my benji RS2 at 100 feet printed 2 inch groups not for a round ball

nothing

work great in the viper express shot gun up my penatration gose in a 2x4
almost 3/4 of an inch from 20 feet
