Page 3 - H&N Crow Magnum, .177 Reviews

Nice clean pellet. They fit consistantly snug in the breech of my RWS 350 Mag. This is a very uniform pellet. Love the availability and economy of the 500ct tin. Tremendous combination of accuracy and ME (22.5 ft-lbs) in this rifle.

I'd like them just a touch heavier (9.1gr?). The 350 Mag shoots them at a very consistant 1074+/- 3.2 fps which is still (just barely) super sonic.

Likely a great choice if you have a rifle rated between 950 and 1250 FPS but runs a little slower than spec. ( Like most do.)

Big package of 500 pellets means re-sighting the rifle less often, able to shoot tight groups at 10 and 30 yds consistently, hits hard. I like that these are accurate enough for target shooting so i can expect the same performance when i must use them for pest control. One clean shot on target at reasonable distance is required for that.

A good match for a Beeman R9/HW95

The Expansion tip. It has the deepest Expansion Cavity and is the best performing hollow point there is, and i say this with reason, reason is that it expands VERY RAPIDLY (proven in my ballistics gel test) and has the WIDEST diameter at the end of penetration, it was the size of the head of a .25 caliber pellet when retrieved from my ballistics gel pellets were also very clean and no visible deformities

THE ACCURACY!!!! The accuracy is terrible with these out of my Benjamin Discovery I Dont know if my particular rifle doesnt like these but they did TERRIBLE im talking 2-3 inch 5 shot groups at 25 yrds compared to a very tight 1/8" 5 shot group at 25 yrds aswell with the Air arms 10.3 gr Field heavy Domed pellets

Dont but them for the Benjamin Discovery

These pellets fit perfectly! I used a micrometer and they come out to about .180, which means a nice snug fit in your barrel. They have a good weight, are very accurate, and have the deepest hollow tip of any hollow point there is, for maximum impact. They are also a good pellet to modify, if you like to customize your shot.

Not one thing.

If you ever want a good performance pellet, get some of these. All around great!

I just bought these Crow Magnum and they work great in a 1088 air pistal but they are just alil tight in the 1088 round clip and they are just alil shade taller than a .177 Hollow point pellet

I wouldnt change a thing about the Crow Magnum Pellets

I am getting ready to order a .177 nitro piston air rifle and I will be shootting alot of paper targetes and there will be a video of them

Accuracy. I use these pellets for 10 meter target shooiting, plinking and hunting. My rifle loves them! They are good out to 40-50 yards. They shoot very tight groups, so it is really hard to justify using cheaper but less accurate ammo.

The tin needs a screw-on lid - it is inevitable that you will spill pellets because the lod doesn't stay on. The price - but I guess you pay for accuracy.

Transfer these H&N Sport pellets into a different container or tin. The Crow Magnum hollow-point design works quite well as a wad-cutter for paper targets, leaving a nice clean hole.

My batch was of excellent manufacturing quality. Pellets arrived in great condition and seemed very consistent in size and shape. Very professionally made. What I expected from a German made pellet.

They seem just fine just the way they are. H&N knows a thing or two about making pellets.

I'm using these Crow Magnums in my RWS 350 Compact. They fit my breech perfectly with just the right amount of resistance going in. My 50 or so tests have been short range target practice, with accurate, consistent results. The 8.80 grain weight seems just about right for the RWS 350. The gun sounds slightly different than when shooting lighter pellets. Like it's more controlled. The true tests will be outdoors at 25 to 30 yards when weather permits.

Hollow point,good weight.hit real hard .

quality control,Some fit tight ,some loose,some so loose they fall out when cocking my rifle.a tin with a scew cap. mine opened in my pocket.

When they fit tight they shoot pretty accurate but when loose there all over the place.About 1/2 of them.

perfect fit in my crossman quest 1000.mushrooms perfectly every time.also havent had any flyers yet

not too accurate.

great for the price,and they last a long time.great power have shot several squirells and a goose,and none of them moved.

excelent pellet, only found one that was messed up, it was choped on the head but these pellets are very accurate. more accurate than the tin gives them credit for.

everyone says that these tins should be threaded but i disagree. the company has apparently listened and put dents in the tin so as to make it harder for the lid to come off.

nothing except that these pellets do tend to drop a bit and are not affected by wind as much.

clean pellet, Shot great in my Benjamin Trail XL 1500. Best pellet so far that gun. Very uniform I like that they were value priced compared to the beeman. DEVASTATING on small game

nothing

These pellets are also great target pellets, they cut a clean hole.

This is a great pell for the B40 (TX200 clone). Good groups and a good velocity.

Nothing

The head is a little tight in the B40 but it has a tight port. The pellet slams home like canon ball. I really like the H&N pells for consistency.

Good groups, less than 1/2 in at 25 yards. Shooting high 800's breaking into the 900 range everynow and then out of my Gamo hunter nitro piston.

Nothing

Shot these adn several others into a 2 litre full of water. These are the only ones that did not go all the way through. Mushroomed nice and neat. Should make a great hunting pellet.

The pellets are well made. I've shot over 100 and not found a single deformed skirt or burr. They are also heavy, which means that they both are harder hitting and just a little slower, which can improve accuracy. My Big Cat 1200 likes them.

Maybe make the pellets a bit softer so that they expand more quickly and definitely offer them in 100 pellet "tester packs" so folks can try them out without buying 500.

On small game, over-penetration is a problem. Lack of power usually isn't the issue, it's that the pellet passes right through game, transferring little "knock down" energy. Hollow points address at least part of this issue, especially with larger, tougher birds like pigeons. This pellet is the best I've found for expansion, knock-down power, and accuracy. If your gun like them, and shoots faster than 700 fps, this is the pellet for virtually any pest control or small game hunting.

A hollow point that works! It expands to 25 cal and lodges on impact while the rear of the pellet breaks free and continues to penetrate deeply.

I have to hand sort and removed deformed skirts. The remaining pellets are accurate and reliable out to 25 yards.

This is the original manufacturer for the re-badged Beeman Crow Magnum pellets. For pest removal there's nothing better.

very clean pellets. Shot about 50 so far and they group gave 10mm grouping for me at 10 meters. Have not tried them at 20-30meters yet.

Using my Crosman 2100; very akkurate. Komparable to their Hollowpoint and Barakuda.
