H&N Sniper Magnum Pellets, .177 Cal, 15 Grains, Domed, 300ct

These pellets are super accurate im getting same hole groups with these pellets and i wasnt able to with any other pellet

These things hit like a crackin' great steamhammer. I mean they carry so much more energy downrange that there is just no hope for any kind of small game. You're not going to be getting after anything larger than a muskrat in .177 no matter what pellet you use but for my money they are the hardest hitting pellets I have ever used. They are accurate but I'm pretty sure that's more my Kral PB Silent than anything to do with any level of skill possessed by this shooter. The deep, and really very thin skirt engages the barrel well for a good seal.

I might have made the rim before the ogive radius just a millimeter or two larger to better facilitate engaging the rifling of the barrel. The skirt could be just a fuzz thicker in the interest of preventing damage during transport and i'd put a thin foam liner in the tin as well but as far as performance these are stompin' good.

Inspect them. The skirt is VERY thin and they do receive damage during transport and so you may at times find you have the occasional flyer.

Good for magnum Springer in .177

My Daisy Model 1000 likes these pellets pretty good. Wasn't sure if doubling the grain of the pellets I had been shooting would be too much but turns out my air rifle shoots these things almost as well as it shoots 10 grain pellets. I will definitely use these for harvesting small game.

I give uniformity of pellets a 4 out of 5. Compared to the Ultra Magnum I ordered these H&N were a little rough around the edges but not so much that they didn't hit where I aimed, not a single flyer.

As stated in my other review, if you are shooting a break action rifle rated at 1000 fps or more, using a 7 grain pellet and are not happy with your shot groups, give a heavier pellet a try. It might help tighten up those shot groups.

I like the fact that if they would have fit my poorly sized barrel they would have been outstanding

I would change the country that has a habit of rifling the barrels with too big of tool

There needs to be a way to know if the barrels on new guns or oversized

These are hard hitters; five star pellets they are best of two requirements hard hitting and accurate. I have an Airforce Condor Carbine SS before they made Condor Carbine's.

Nothing the skirt seems good seats well in the Condor at least.

You can takes some tough critters out with these pellets but you need to hit the vitals... since it's a "somewhat" light grain, but heavy though for .177 being the grains weight of a .22 calibre.

Great pellet for my Gamo break barrel

The H&N Sniper Magnum .177 is my favorite and most accurate pellet I've encountered in my Maximus. It seems to fall into zero at 25 yards and back into zero at 40 yards. I recommend them highly for the Maximus.

Try them in your Maximus, see if you get my results.

Excellent seating in the barrel, defined rifling grooves on recovered rounds, hits HARD, EXCELLENT group consistency.

Nothing yet...

I'm shooting these from a well-used Umarex Fuel, and at 30-35 yards these are pounding the snot out of my steel target! After rebuilding my gun, I feel confident that I can hunt game up to coyote size with clean kills. Beyond 35 yards I think I will have to block my scope though.

Love these pellets super heavy for 177 which keeps the sound report nice and quiet not just that but accuracy is great

Not much except the fact that they are long and so some magazines may not like it or fit properly

I bought a bunch of these since they are my favorite for my reasons. Recommend you Try them first!
