RWS Meisterkugeln Pistol .177 Cal, 7.0 Grains, Wadcutter, 500ct

Verified Purchase

Things I liked: Bright, quality finish to pellet, uniformity in shape. Looks as good as it shoots, more accurate than Crosman Premier 7.9gr wadcutters for a penny more. I doubt that I will find anything better for the CO2 pistols I shoot!

Things I would have changed: Improve packaging, thread the lid of tin so it stays on.

What others should know: A great practice pellet for pistol target shooting. Good plinking pellet, goes through 2inch diameter aluminum cat food cans at thirty feet! I shot one inch groups from a bench rest using a red dot sight at thirty feet with these pellets, and two inch groups freehand from fifty feet, when I got the hang of it!. At 7grain it is a very good pellet for CO2 pistols and lower power .177guns. My Crosman Vigilante, and Gamo PR-776 both like these pellets. As an experiment I also tried the heavier Meisterkugeln Rifle 8.2grain .177 cal, wadcutter pellets, through my pistols and the accuracy fell off. The 8.2 grain wadcutter pellets had as fine a finish as the 7.0 grain wadcutters, but they probably work better in a rifle with more power. If you want to spend a dime a round for more accuracy try the RWS HyperMax alloy pellets

Things I liked: Very accurate in my Crosman 2300S. Very consistent grouping.

Things I would have changed: Nothing

What others should know: I use the NRA 10 meter paper target. To avoid tearing which happens with every wad cutter, put a cross of duct tape on the back of the target over the bullseye. I now get 99% paper-punch holes.
