Gamo Match .177 Cal, 7.56 Grains, Wadcutter, 500ct

These are the pellets my S&W 586 revolver seems to digest the best.

Nothing

I can't believe how well packed the pellet shipment of 10 tins was. It would be impossible to damage anything unless the package was run over by a truck. Great packing job compared to many I have seen.

Available, reasonable pricing, they are keeping me shooting, Big THANKS to everybody at Pyramydair and the Zen desk!

They are somewhat harder on the fingers to load and a little dirtier than the H&N Econs my rifle prefers (unavailable at this time), See the chrono comparison below..

I found these to shoot very closely the same as the RWS Superdomes

For being 7.56 grain "Match" type rounds, they were very inconsistent in diameter. Some were a very snug fit into the breech, while others dropped in easily. Those that were snug followed the same trajectory as the RWS Superdome, which weigh in at 8.36 grains. Those that were an easier fit like the Superdomes tended to hit an inch higher. So for things I would change would be in the tooling or molds used to produce these rounds. That will probably improve the Six Sigma statistics significantly.

I wouldn't recommend these for match contests, but I would use them for every day practicing.

Too bad pictures of the test targets can't be posted along with the review.

Price/quantity

These arent for match rifle/pistol use-inconsistent sizing, but work well in lever action rifle and colt style revolvers. Best use would be for plinking.

inexpensive to shoot and accurate enough for me at 10 yds

Excellent

Excellent product

The color of the tin; the lid is screw type. The pellets look bright. The price is reasonable.

Make a little adjustment on the size of the pellets. A few pellets are a little large on the flat-headed side & the skirts. Needs to push into the barrel when loading. That make the shot drop to about 2" - 3" below the 2" target at 14 yards indoor. Some pellets are easy to load and all pellets make good round holes on paper targets.

I am a fan of .177 calibers. I've shot a few models, including Airarm, Avanti/Daisy Match, Beeman, Benjamin Prowler, Crossman, Gamo, Hatsan, Ruger, RWS, Stoeger, Winchester air rifles. Each model may have a little variation of size at the loading end of the rifle. On small hole, the Gamo pellets ( exceptional larger sizes ) may have problem in feeding into the barrel and affect the accuracy. But it didn't happen all the time. For target practice, & plinking, the price is economical.

Great for sighting in & target practice!

Nothing!

Get these in bulk & save even more!

Good for plinking

Couldn't open the tin by hand. had to set in the vise and use large channel locks just to open

Great product. Use it with my GAmo P25, and my John Wayne colt replica. No complaints. They shoot great with this pellet.
