Page 16 - Predator Polymag .22, .22 Reviews

Deadly. Very accurate. Dropped a starling from about 20 yards, out of the top of a 60ft. tall Douglas Fir tree. I say dropped because it fell like a brick. Many other birds have met the same fate. My Avenger 1100 loves these pellets.

Naturally I'd like more pellets per dollar. I doubt I'll do much target practice with these, considering the cost. The lid doesn't screw on, but that isn't a problem as I use a Crosman pellet pouch.

Who woulda' thought that such an odd-looking pellet with that goofy little red plastic tip could shoot with the consistency of a match pellet... but they do! Best pellet so far in my .22 Nitro. Best also in my old S&W 77 pump-up rifle. Mt C-1 Carbine loves them too! Recovered 2 from squirrels and expansion was impressive. Try these in the most powerful rifle you own and prepare to be impressed!

1) Nothing design-wise, just dump them into a spare screw-on-lidded tin. Those slide-on lids are no good... used to hate them on the Beeman pellets too.

Too expensive for plinking. Too bad.

Maybe the best pellets Ive used so far. Outstanding accuracy and power. Ive used them in my RWS 34P and RWS 48 with excellent results.

The top of the tin comes off too easy. It would be great if they offered them in larger quantities.

Performance wise, these are among the best pellets Ive used, period. Ive been able to take targets at distances of 70-80 yards with my RWS 48 using these and that not something Ive been able to do that often using other pellets. Definitely worth purchasing.

these pellets are great! im getting 1 inch groups at 40 yards with my Beeman RS3. shot one squirle at 32 yards and it was a through and through. great mushrooming too.

the tine should have a screw on top. they spilled all over my room when i took them out of the box the tin was in. other than that they were great.

great for the money, buy these and you wont be disapointed if your doing small game hunting.

Accuracy and the knock down power. Great for varmits they definately pack some punch. Me personally Predator and Premier Hollow Points are the only pellets I use!

It would great if they wre cheaper.

I shoot a Beeman RS 2 and a Daisy SG.

Awesome knock down power, gr8 accuracy...As to date 26 Squirrels, 7 opossums, a ground hog, 4 coons 1 being 40 1/2 pounds (my chicken food thief) biggest one I have taken in 30 years...Countless ground Squirrels ((chipmunks))) with these pellets and the Crosman NPSS gun!!! I will buy 4 more soon I am on my 2nd 200 now....

A bigger tin with more in it...maybe a little cheeper thats it...

Buy em & try em, if your gun will shoot them you will love them!!!

I use this pellet in my rws 48. It shoots them around 700 fps and with nice accuracy. Longest shot on a squirrel is 27 yds. I have uesd this pellet in my marauder and it to shot very well. I have found a number of pellets in squirrels and they do expand very well. They are a nice hunting pellet.

Nothing

No

Look like a fine quality pellet, but WILL NOT FIT in a BENJAMIN MARAUDER clip! Likely will not work in some other manufacturer's clips due to the length with the point.

The clip on the Marauder so I could use these pellets!

As stated- they may not work in your gun if it uses a clip. The review made me put in a rating, although I can't actually shoot them! I suspect they might be worthy of a better rating, but I can't say "Awesome", just "Pretty cool" because they look it.

Lets put it this way I took down a squirrel in wind at 80 yards with a blizzard S10 cross hairs on the head an hit him in the belly so shoot straight goes through wind a expands great big wound channel I love them!

Make the skirts a little thicker.

May differ from gun to gun. but love them in the blizzard S10 and Benjamin blue strike.

I like the accuracy, cleanliness, and precision manufacturing of these. With the polymer tip these pack a real punch, really penetrate, they have a superior ballistic aerodynamic shape which gives this pellet superior performance. The overall quality of these pellets is first rate. This is the only pellet I shoot. I use it for target shooting, small game hunting, pest control. I have yet to run across a bad pellet.

nothing don't mess with perfection.

I have a Crosman factory custom shop built 2400kt Co2, 12 gram cartridge, powered carbine. Crosman rates this carbine at 600 fps muzzle velocity. This is a .22 caliber, 24 inch barrel. With the polymags I get outstanding accuracy, target penetration. If anyone is wondering if 600fps velocity is enough for small game hunting, pest control I can tell you that with these pellets, and in this caliber yes it is! I live on a lake that has some large snapping turtles and this gun with this ammo takes them out. Having polymer tips gives this ammo outstanding performance. Polymers are the way of the future, we see it more everyday in firearms, cars, products we use everyday. I highly recommend these.

Shoots good in my rws 34 P very accurate

more per tin

buy it

Nice and clean.If skirt is bent a little it is thin enough to reshape while loading.

Everybody knows this,a screw on lid.Make them in 25 caliber.

I found that in all my guns(about 20 some) Especially my Condors they shoot moor accurate if you take a pair of pliers and take the red polymer tip off.This will also give better knock down power and man what awesome expansion.The lead will turn completely inside out.I shot a sparrow that was setting butt to me I put the laser on him he was 25yards away.Time I pulled the trigger the bird completely disappeard.The impacted was louder than the gun an we all know how loud these condors are.I found only one wing. If your shooting high power PCPs take them tips off you will be amazed of the perfect expasion you get and better accuracy past 40yards.If you own a condor buy a moderator at www.airhog.com it will silence it to a whisper useing 21gr. on up.

This is the best ammo available! Period. Great ballistic coefficient due to the plastic tip.This was the only ammo that made my BAM XS-51 shoot consistent. First I thougt it was the rifle. But the Predator seems to be the only ammo that can handle the power (950fps with 16gr pellets). If you go hunting, this is what you want: deadly combination of lead (mushroom) and plastic tip (for penetration and bone crushing).

I would appreciate a lower price. But it is still worth the money.

sometimes plastic tip falls out. I would recommend this product for hunting. For target shooting the plastic tip is a bit messy (cleaning up).

These are very cool looking, accurate, and oh ya, cool looking.

Everyone else said they would change the tin it comes in, so I guess that is what I will say also. What I did for this proplem was just save and old screw top tin and transfer these new ones into the screw top tin. If somebody out there is reading this review that has the authority to make these available in larger quantities, then please do so. A 500 count (or more)would be great.

I shot these into ballistics gel and the damage was better than a 14 grain hollow point and the penetration was just as deep.

Uniform, very clean and accurate @ all distances. They look cool!

Price. Thin out the HP wall a little for better expansion.

You can shoot a plastic water jug at 25 yards and not lose a drop of water with these as the point makes a self sealing hole as it enters the jug. I really didn't see any expansion or deformation after impact in a water filled plastic ice tea jug.

Accuracy, Expanding properties, Uniform manufacturing

Nothing, maybe offer a version with a tip made of harder material for puncturing metals

I sighted these in at 40 yards, the last shots I took after zeroing the scope were tight, I took five shots, 2 went through the same hole, one went a 1/4 inch higher and the last two went through the same hole leaving five shots within a $1 peice at 40 yards, WOW, I was using a Walther Talon Magnum .22 cal and a Leapers 3x9 TS scope.

The pellets are uniform and well manufactured. I use them for small game in my RWS 350, which shoots these very, very accurately. These come out of the 350 at 22.79 FPE. I have confirmed kills on prairie dogs out to 120 yards. I've seen these pellets get complete pass throughs at 60 yards...

Larger tins & lower prices

I've tried many pellets through both my 350 and my RWS 48. These Predators shoot at about the same accuracy level as JSB Exact 14.3 grn pellets, which blew me away. If you're looking for a pellet that penetrates, then expands... this is the best out there... at least for me and my needs.

I like everything about these pellets. My favorite this is the polymer tip. It works perfectly.

The price could be lower but I think it is good for what they are intended for. I just like to shoot them for fun and find the pellets in milk jugs to see how much they have changed. Definitely not a cheap pellet for that kind of shooting.

The design of these pellets works perfectly. The tip gets great penetration and the few that I have found are nearly twice the size of the original.

HIGHLY ACCURATE!!!!! I love these pellets..... Good pest stoppers.... Haven't seen any around lately since i have gone threw half of these XP

screw on lid.... leave the foam insert.... Larger tins like 500.... Buy more at when in stock

careful loading because the tip can get messed up a little bit.... only had around 5 or so that had deformed skirts or jankey tips

Accurate, cuts a clean hole for target shooting and hits hard when hunting my Discovery loves them
