Page 2 - H&N Excite Hammer, .22 Reviews

These are my favorite pellet. I have countless tins of pellets spread all over the house but when I just want to do some simple shooting these are my go-to pellet. Somehow this pellet stirs emotion in me. On a springer the dome helps guide the pellet into the bore. Also this dome helps close the bolt on guns with a bolt, especially a 2260 (mine especially) as there is a bolt and pocket the pellet scrapes by and a wadcutter will turn sideways and require finger manipulation. But not this pellet. Other bolt action guns can tend to have issues with the pellet scaping/catching on the side of the bore as it goes in. But not this pellet. Of course ANY domed pellet will work like these, but with these you get some of the "smack" like you get from a wadcutter on small pests that is hard to quantify without observation in the field. Full domes tend to pierce. I love the Excite brand because you get beautiful German quality at a price you wonder how they are able to do it. A favorite!

Absolutely nothing. Super German quality and cleanliness at a cheap price... what is there to complain about?

This is the best plinking pellet in the world. They help you load your pellets because the slight dome acts as a guide. It does everything WELL. Maybe not the best in every category but if you compare ease of loading into a springer barrel, and the ease to close a bolt on a pellet without it turning sideways/scraping, and transferring energy to small pests instead of piercing, and a better BC than wadcutters... just keep thinking and you'll agree it does everything right. Just about every other design has a handicap of some sort. This pellet has no distinct problem. Also you get German quality for an unbelievable low price. My go-to pellet when you just want to shoot for some reason and you'll know the pellet will work with you. I've actually developed a warm fuzzy feeling for this particular pellet. I buy them just for fun!

Almost exactly the same as RWS pellets

Nothing except maybe a little more weight

accurate.

make then in alloy

They shoot very accurately. And are clean and formed perfectly.

Larger container

These have the same p.o.I. as the h&n 14.66 gr field target trophy, also domed but more expensive.

Good quality control.

Nothing.

This pellets are almost the same as the RWS superdomes but cheap.Differs on weight by 0.16 gr.(heavier)and in the" double skirt" superdome has.My Benji NP2 and Hatsan striker 1000s didn't find any difference.Good pellet for short distance(less than 70 feet).Hit hard.

This pellet fit perfect for my round magazine for the Crosman Repeatair 2210 .22 pistol.

A few grains lighter either in a 12.5 or 11.

Very nice pellet fit in my prehistoric Crosman 2210 7 shot magazine. It is very similar to the discontinued Beeman Laser .22. The round nose is in between wadcutter and domed. Perfect fit for this magazine ,doesnt obstruct clip movement as a pointed or domed pellet can .Havent tested velocity/accuracy ,yet. But all seem consistant and well made.

Not a long range pellet, for my rws460magnum, good to 30y only.

Shoots good in my Berman silver Kodiak

Very accurate pellet in my rifle.

Maybe package 500 to a tin.

I've tried about a dozen different pellets in my RWS model 34, .22 cal. rifle. These have proven to be the best so far. I shoot indoors in my shop at a distance of 40 feet. Using a 4x scope, groups that can be covered with a dime become predictably boring. My best groups to date has been able to be covered by a pencil eraser, about 5/16" diameter. I realize airguns are ammo fussy but mine gobbles these up like a little kid with a bag of M&M's. Give these a try, you may be pleasantly supprised.

Love these pellets!! Clean very uniform and great price!

Nothing!

Shoots great out of my Hammerli 850 air magnum .22 cal!!!
