RWS Supermag .177, .177 Reviews

Tin of 500 is nice. Uniform fit and finish. Heavy wadcutter that is devastating on squirrels. Shot one at 18 yards in the fuse box, did not do the usual jumping bean dance, just dropped. Shot another at 33 yards in the chest, dead on the spot. Both shots were from a Winchester 1977XS and both shots had complete pass through with massive damage.

Would be nice to have a screw on lid. This is the field line so accuracy is not on par with the Meisterkuglen or R10 so it would be nice to male these in the professional line even if they were a little more.

I shot these out of an Daisy 880 and a Beeman R7. Both were very accurate but these pellets need a little more power. I think you need at least 9 FPE to get the performance out of these. Ended up using a Winchester 1977XS and had a 1/2 group at 20 yards. Probably the best squirrel pellet I have tried. Hits hard!!!

THE wad cutter pellet for my Beeman P-1 pistol. Just the right combination of size and weight for paper punching in my 10M basement target range.

Go back to the slightly heavier weight. If I remember correctly, about 2 grains have been lost in the recent iterations of this product. I suppose it is a cost-saving measure? Thankfully, the accuracy has largely remained unchanged. The new versions don't "click" into the rifling (aided by my ancient Beeman Pellset tool) as robustly as the heavier former iteration. That "click" means a solid engagement into the rifling.

Clean, uniform, exact. A good pellet for magnum air arms, springers in particular, for paper punching without the pellet necessarily going supersonic.

These are nice heavy pellets that work well in my R1. They seem to be able to extract more power from the R1 then I can get from other pellets. Accuracy is good at 25 yrds, I have not had a chance to take it out to 75 or 100 yrds yet.

The pellets were pretty dinged up in shipping (I presume). The skirts can be straightened when loading them in the barrel but still. It is just one more step I would like to avoid.

My lower power guns don't do as well as the R1 with this pellet. My assumption is its just too slow to stabilize well out of my 60's vintage HW55 for example.

Its a good solid/decent pellet for my R1 rifle. It seems to like these heavier match pellets the best.

You have to test things and these heavy match pellets work well in my R1 springer. I know they are not giving me the fastest velocity but I think I am getting more energy out of the combination.

Shoot straight

Nothing

I like the fact that they shoot to the same point of aim as the H&N Baracuda Match 10.65gr at 25 yards. They are almost as accurate too. Very accurate but the H&N are just a little better but the skirts are the same size. This is shooting in HW97K 12# springer with these pellets.

There is nothing I can add to all the 5 level reviews for this ad.

I love these pellets. So accurate in 5 of my guns, Gamo varmit and powerline 901. Able to hit aspirin at 50 feet, some laying down some taped to a metal plate, lots of fun.

I personally would not change anything. Clean pellets no residue. Excellent weight. Fly straight and true.

At this price, gotta love that. Clean less build up in barrel. I shoot at 50 feet able to hit flies off my grandsons diaper with the scope I have 3x9x40ao tasco. Great combo. Lots of fun, gotta try it, or anything smelly. I love the idea of 500 per tin.

Weight; consistency; accuracy; durability

I would appreciate a screw-on lid.

These are hard hitting wad cutters that shoot as accurately in my guns as RWS' Meisterkugelns. I appreciate the durable skirt that resists deformation, and the consistency from pellet to pellet. I will be buying these again.

Precision product and performance at a bargain price. With .223 or .22lr priced beyond reason (if you can find it at all) this ammo keeps the shooting skills honed. Someone said, it is a perishable skill, use it or lose it.

Not a thing.

I'm using these in a vintage FWB124 Springer with Leapers 4x32 mildot scope. That rifle still has solid 800 fps power and more accuracy than most today. Those RWS wadcutters are a near perfect paring and make tight, hard hitting groups for punching paper or ringing swinging steel targets.

Accurate in my 12-14 ft/lb springers. Hard hitting on small game and vermin.

nothing

Accurate, hard hitting wadcutter that I recommend for close range pesting/hunting

Thanks just waiting on my gun

Best wadcutter pellet for the high powered 177 you can buy.

Nothing

I made great group of shoots. I recommend.

Accurate in several air rifles, even at 25 - 30 yards where most wadcutters begin to spread out. Lots of 3/8" to 1/2" groups on my 25 yard target, and have even had several sub-MoA bugholes when the wind is completely calm. An absolute wrecking ball on house sparrows. One of the best wadcutters I've ever used.

Nothing, don't change a thing. I'm disappointed that RWS has reduced the qty per tin on many of their pellets over the last year or so...without a commensurate drop in price. I fear the Supermags will fall prey to the same tactics.

I was shooting beer cans with the super dome pellets at around 12 to 15 ft. And it made a nice little hole on both sides , but the wad cutters ripped & tore the can about 3'' on both sides of the hole where it penetrated. And mice are history with either round. Thanks Pyramid Air.

Nothing

Are you gonna pull those pistols are whistle Dixie.

supermags shoot one hole groups out of my crosman silhouette at 8 yards. my pistol has been powered up and gets these out at 600 fps. nice clean uniform wadcutters that fit tight in my gun

nothing

I haven't shot these farther out than 8 yards as I am limited in my basement range

Quality is great shoots 1/2 inch actually 0.517" at 20 yards out of mt BEEMAN QB CHIEF pcp.

nothing very nice wadcutters for target shooting

not much buy them I can guarantee these in the beeman qb chief pcp

i have to say i was really impressed with these pellets. i have a crosman phantom nitro power. i was breaking the rifle in with crosman Destroyer and was all over the map (inside at 35 feet open sights) i shot three supermag and pow dead in the bulls eye !! i will be for sure getting more soon !!

nothen

I use these to dispatch rats, mice, small pest birds, and other small vermin. From my 2400kt, they are deadly accurate and hit like a hammer. 10 mice have fallen victim to these this year in my house, and I am yet to lose one to wounding. They all flop over and expire immediately. Very humane and effective hunting pellet.

Nothing.

Buy these if you want the most effective pest control pellet you can get.

Price is pretty good. I measured 16 pellets for head size and skirt size and found variation from two different cans. First tin had average head size of 4.491mm with 0.013 standard deviation and a range of 0.06mm. Skirt average was 4.715mm with SD 0.012 and range of 0.12mm. The second tin had average head size 4.488mm with SD of 0.013 and a range of 0.05mm. The average skirt was 4.748mm with SD of 0.012 and a range of 0.06mm. This brand of pellet has had the largest variation in head sizes of all the pellets I have measured so far. The differences are small but they may make a difference in consistency. Good value for non-competition.
