PRICE!!the best value in pellets.fit the factory air force condor barrel snug but not to tight.does`nt hurt your thumb to insert them.the weight is enough for most pests.they group as good as any i have shot..

nothing..offer some heavier.

no

This is a serious chunk o' lead! These seem to be the most accurate pellet in my .25 Benjamin Marauder. They have a good ballistic coefficient, carrying a lot of energy downrange, and since they are heavy for a .25 pellet, they generate more energy in PCP's like the Marauder. The semi-pointed noses provide a lot of penetration.

The only thing I can complain about in the packaging is having to scrape the leading edge of the safety tape on the lid to start peeling it.

I lube my pellets with Krytech/Finish Line wax in a cereal bowl. When I do this, there are numerous lead flakes that come off the pellets. That's why I knocked off one star. I'm sure the flakes cause fliers in groups. For those of you interested in the ultimate accuracy, you should wash these to remove the pesky flakes before lubing.

Well machined and very accurate.

I like this pellet and am very satisfied with it's performance.

Accurate and hard-hitting. My Benjamin Trail XL likes these pellets a lot.

Nothing. Maybe make a tin of 500.

An outstanding all-around pellet for my .25 gun. Deadly and very accurate for small game hunting. I sure wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of this one!

Accuracy,weight.They are very accurate in my Air Force Talon SS & my .25 cal Disco pistol I put together.

Well I'm always looking for a better price.

No

Clean, uniformly manufactured domed, almost pointed, H&N pellets. As usual, for H&N, there is a high level of quality in these projectiles. No blackened fingers from handling them for loading - a real plus. H&N has an interrupted screw can lid. This is a huge positive for preventing "accidental discharge" of pellets all over the ground; better than a simple press fit can, and should be industry standard (in my opinion).

Nothing. These really do the work that they are designed to do and for slightly over 3 cents per round.

These are very heavy pellets. If your airgun is of lesser power, you might want a bit lighter round.

The packaging for pellets by P/A is fantastic! I've been spoiled by H&N, the quality is top grade. I am using these in my new Hatsan 125, and the accuracy is incredible. I needed to site an aftermarket scope NcStar 3-9x40 and wanted to make it as quick as possible. These pellets at 30 yards hit perfectly every time, and fortunately the site needed very little correction out of the box, a statement to all three companies for quality control. As to H&N power, These were shot through a Hardie Plank fiber cement panel .25" thick, which you will break your hand on, and tear up a skill saw blade in no time. The pellet passed through as though it was drill. On the exit side of the panel you could see the spread of the pellet which opened, and took up to 1.5" of panel away. This would be devastating to your quarry. Reminder that these guns, and ammo are not toys. The purpose for this ammo is small game and raccoon/varmint control. I feel this will be a one shot humane kill for coons to 10-20 lbs. I prefer to shoot within 10 yards, but if need be I can feel confident at 20 yards that the results should be the same with one shot in a dime size area of the skull. Accuracy is critical in these animals.

Not a thing

I have an ammo box, and will be ordering an ammo pouch it's easier to protect, and load while shooting. There is virtually no drop with these pellets at 30 yards even at this weight.

fit the condor ss chamber just right.not so tight you have to shove them and make your thum sore.plus they have the same point of impact as the 43 grain eunjin`s.the price is a outstanding bargain too.about two cents apiece.heavy enough i guess for most any small to medium critter..i would like to see them make them heavier.i like heavy pellets i mostly shoot eungin 43 grain pellets they make your thum a little sore if you shoot alot of them.these are ok priced right accurate and all were really close in weight.

nothing.i would like h&n to offer a heaver pellet.they would price them a lot less than the 43 grain eunjin..i think if they offered a 68 grain 25 cal.it would be a big seller.can anybody suggest this to them..h&n i mean..

nothing there great.

These are truly precision pellets. I wouldn't recommend for a springer gun, but these work well in a PCP for hard hitting accuracy that takes the gun into another league altogether compared to 25gr pellets.

There is absolutly nothing wrong with these pellets.

These are long pellets, and may not work well with short ammo drums. My Hatsan AT44PA for example. I like these pellets so well that I modified my rifle by "throating" the magazine slot with a rattail file to allow the tips of these pellets to smoothly revolve into the receiver instead of hanging on the sharp edge of the factory receiver mag slot. Worked great!

This was tested with a Hatsan 125 .25 shooting through a "James Hardie" .5" Fiber Cement sheet, which is an extremely tough siding material. These pellets passed right through and in some cases ricocheted off the concrete block wall backstop, and kept going. The pellets recovered after penetration and stopping at the wall, were nearly all flat, with a slight 2-3 mm of skirt left. Tried to add a picture but got a 404 error.The spread is impressive, and would be devastating if not lethal to small game.

Not a thing

These are high quality,worth the money hunting pellets.

Nice tin

maybe adding foam to the inside of the tins would cause the skirts to not be misshaped which cause accuracy issues

These pellets shot to the right of the target consistently, I even refilled to standard 3000 psi with my Marauder and shot my JSB's. The JSB's hit true and I proceeded with the H&N Barracuda's with the same pull to the right.
Missed 3 squirrels 3 times, this is a bad pellet

Accurate and consistent! These are my go to pellets for long range shooting.

Nothing!

Just about the perfect all around .25 pellet for 50~60 FPE airguns.

My Benjamin Marauder love these pellets. Very tight groups at 25 and 50 yards. Great knock down power for small game and pests.

nothing

This is a very good value!!!

I shot this pellet first in my new 25 marauder shot .50 groups at 25 yards great pellet. really rips a big hole in a coon size animal they don't go far

nothing shoots great in my gun

Nice deep air pocket, very consistent sizing, harder lead keeps the bent skirts away

Would like a larger 350 count tin like JSB Kings, but the cost per pellet is actually a pretty good deal compared to JSB Kings. You just need to purchase more tins to keep up with the amount but you will end up saving a little bit. Just buy everything is sets of 4's and you will see the difference.

These are the second choice pellet for my rifles. Both rifles (Kalibrgun Cricket/EDgun R3) are pushing these pellets out around 930 FPS giving me 60# of accurate power. One ragged hole at 50ish yards and measuring around 1/2" - 3/4" groups. Good to go.

Hits hard I can get good hunting groups after 40 yards groups fall

Nothing

Good pellet would be better in a pcp gun I think

Well formed Adequate skirt thickness Consistent weight Screw top container As accurate as any other top brand Great weight for a .25 caliber

Larger count tins.

They work, every time, every shot is consistent.

The consistenci of the product its really good not as amazing as the match ones but still pretty good for the buck

i will like to get bigger boxes

This is a really good product but for the money go with the match ones you wont regret it

Very uniform pellet, l like the down range energy at 30 to 40 yards in this caliber .25 l see best results with .22 cal. At longer range retain lts energy better. No complaints.Both are good pellets.

Sticker on lids, more clear readeble and change color.

Well this pellet is a good heavy one, remember guys shoot safely and don't forget lube them for best results,read lube reviews on this site and l would like to see the (Master .357) for all of us that have or think on buy a new .357 rifle.

my marauder loves these pellets shoots 1/2 inch groups at 30 yards all day

like to see them 500 in a tin
