H&N Rundkugel, .177, 4.50mm Dia., 7.70 Grains, Round Ball, 500ct

Easy to load, very uniform in size and shape. Also, hard hitting and excellent penetration.

Price is a little too high.

These are not very accurate compared to regular pellets. Poor groupings on targets. These do not work in guns with bb magazines, such as the crosman 2100; they are to big and will not feed into the breech.
For my use, these are not worth buying again.

Very uniform in size

they appear to be just a touch larger than the usual steel BBs. A steel BB will easily roll down the barrel but the lead BBs need an initial push into the barrel and then they don't easily roll down. this makes them work well in guns that normally use a magnet on the bolt to hold the BB in place.

consistent size. Too small

nothing. There must be a place for these.

Too small for my guns. I do recommend the 4.54 Dia. if you got the money. Or buy Gamo balls.

Round.

I can't say they are to small because they are just as decribed.4.50. That is to loose for me not enough compression. 4.54 perfect.

bought these mostly for fun and to see how they reacted to different guns. After shooting with them, i have ordered more.

the package says not to use these on pistols. as long as your watching out for slightly crushed or damaged ones everything works just fine, your pistol will shoot way slower though.

These are very well made and nicely round without dimples or flats.

Well, they are expensive. Yet compared to the Gamo Round Balls, the quality of these makes those appear to have been formed with some sort of peening process. I would rather have the quality than the inferior performance of out of round shot.

These measured .178" and weighed 8.5g rather than the 7.7 g listed. They are too large for a Daisy Model 25 with very slow velocity (dragging the bore?) and some double feeds. However, in a Crosman 2100 they gave me 673 fps velocity which was slightly higher than this rifle delivers with a pellet of like weight. I did not measure group size as I was plinking Sweet gum balls off the ground but I was hitting them consistently at up to 20 yards. The bottom line though is these offer little that can't be done with a more economical pellet.

- Accurate - Consistent weight and shape, I have gone through two boxes and no defective ones yet. - Tight lid for the box, does not come of that easy. - Leaves a wad cutter like hole in the targets with my Beeman RS2 and my Crossman 357w, a perfect circle, no tearing, In fact, I think the holes are a little crisper than with my normal wad cutters, probably because these do not wobble.

-Nothing

- Works GREAT with my Crossman 357w pistol, really accurate, great speed, the best round I have tried for this gun, excellent fit in the magazine.

- Works Great with my Beeman RS2 air rifle, accurate, fits really snuggly in the barrel, one of the best rounds I have tried for it.

- Does not work with my Baretta FS92 pistol - Jams up, even when the round balls are pushed a long way into the magazine. I don't know why, as they fit good and tight in the magazine, normal wad cutters works great.

Loading is easier, easier to carry without damage.

more for less

My Gamo Big Cat 1250 and Shadow 1000 love these, as good as any pellet in those guns.
My Crosman 1377 not so much, i think you need a longer barrel for round balls.
mine are 4.50mm, 7.7 grain

Accurate, good penetration and uniform. My Crossman 357 and Daisy 008 just eat these things up. In the 357 they are as accurart as any pellet and penetrate better than most.

I wish H&N would make these in .22 cal.

The lid can slip off the container. A bit of tape takes care of that. I sometimes use a pellet pouch.

I'm struggling to find anything I like. I shot Beeman rounds out of my Sheridan for years and loved them and was happy to find some to shoot through my RWS 34 Diana. REALLY disappointed, some fit tight some I thought would roll out, groups were non-existent.

Buying them

I do like some H&N pellets and this could be purely a "springer" problem?
The Baracuda Match in 10.65 gr and the Silver Point in 11.57 gr are dead nuts accurate tearing same holes at 15 yrds
