    Things I liked:

    These pellets are uniform in size, weight and shape. They are seamless and have a polished appearance. For backyard plinking you cannot beat these. Oh, did I mention that they are inexpensive?

    Things I would have changed:

    Because of the things I like these pellets tend to go out of stock.

    What others should know:

    If they are in stock buy a tin or two. You will not regret it.

    Things I liked:

    I like the price, This is what a tin of 500 pellets should cost!!I use them in my Umarex Mk IV for shooting -10yds. Pellets held shape in shipping. The few skirts that got smashed a little, I was able to fix perfectly with the back of a paintbrush handle. Will definitely buy more

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing . They kept shape in shipping, shot consistently good groups. And the price is perfect!

    What others should know:

    When I bought the 2 tins of .177 econ II they had a mix of the pointed pellets with the grooved skirts mixed in somehow. When I separated them it was about 20% pointed. I am happy with P.A.s solution.

    Things I liked:

    Given the price of other .177 pellets the Econ II's are a bargain. I'd go so far as to call them an unbelievable bargain. I'm an unsteady old guy who requires a gun rest. Offhand shooting is out of the question. My cellar range is a couple of feet short of the classic ten meters. At my shooting bench, my Air Venturi 46M single-stroke and two CO2 pistols achieve groups I doubt "better" pellets would surpass.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing.

    What others should know:

    Go for them! You won't be disappointed.

    Things I liked:

    Very economical. A good "plinker" and as a practice round. The smallest groups I have gotten has been around .440 (c to c) at 10 meters. I found very few bad ones (deformed skirt, etc) and the pellets appear to be fairly clean.

    Things I would have changed:

    A screw on lid would be nice.

    What others should know:

    Alway trying new pellets to find the "magic" target or hunting round . Thes seem to work fairly well in my CO2 weapons and my lower powered springers. Good al around target pellet

    Things I would have changed:

    Advertised weight is incorrect.

    Actual weight is 7.6 grains. Weighed groups of ten and averaged and also weighed individual pellets. Very uniform in weight but advertised as 7.4 grains.

    Things I liked:

    In my tests of two spring rifles, the Umarex Embark and the Beeman R7 (HW30S), these were remarkably accurate. In the Embark, they are currently the most accurate pellet I have tested out of about 15 varieties and they are the second least expensive, making these my go-to, value pellet for target practice and plinking.

    Things I would have changed:

    Keep them in stock. I plan on using them a lot in the future.

    What others should know:

    These are always worth a shot. You may well be pleasantly surprised.

    Things I liked:

    I bought these as an inexpensive target wadcutter for my Winter basement 10m range but I was shocked when they ended ip being exceptionally accurate in nearly all my .177 guns. My old Daisy 753 actually put three rounds through the same, slightly ovaline, hole. Amazing for the money!

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    Buy more than you think you need.

    Things I liked:

    My preferred pellet brands are JSB, H&N and RWS. The price of these is hard to beat, so I thought I would try them since they are H&N branded. I bought these to use as paper punchers in a Daisy 853 which is very accurate with good pellets and generally shoots most pellets well. I was pleasantly surprised with the accuracy these attain and they shoot right up there with my more expensive pellets. I did have 1 flyer in about 50 shots. Each gun has its own ammo preference so I would recommend trying one can of these to see how the perform for you. Quality wise, these pellets appear to be virtually identical to RWS Meisterkugeln's, which are one of my favorites and shoot well in my guns.

    Things I would have changed:

    The pellet weight should be printed on the can.

    What others should know:

    Nothing.

    Things I liked:

    I received my order for 100 tins of the new H&N Excite Econ 2 from Pyramyd Air and shot a first string with them using my Prochrono Digital. Date: 6/12/2020 , rifle: FWB 300S / 458500 shots fired: String #63. 99 shots consecutively; Average velocity: 634 fps, Maximum spread: 22 fps, Standard Deviation: 4.9 fps, (Relative Standard Deviation: 0.8%). Using an Ohaus triple beam Balance, for 100 tins the average unopened weight was 265 grams, the spread was 8.5 grams and the standard deviation was 1.7 grams. The lightest tin weighed 263 grams, contained 510 pellets averaging 49.6 gram each, while the heaviest tin weighed 271.5 grams, contain 521 pellets averaging 50.3 grams each (the advertised pellet weight is 7.48 grain or 0.485 grams). I have shot over 240000 shots with the old H&N Excite Econ, they became my favorite pellets (clean, a pleasure to shoot, and accurate). The new Econ 2 pellets seem to be just as good both in performance and in feel as their predecessor were. If your rifle likes them, you shoot a lot, and can live with an RSDvel of 1%, they are also a great buy.

    Things I would have changed:

    In my experience nothing , see above.

    What others should know:

    Yes: I had once a bad batch of the old Econ, a while ago: nothing wrong with the pellets, but just small pieces of junk lead in the tins: I took notes of every piece and have kept them here: I like "counting beans"...
