Crosman P177 .177-Caliber Pointed Pellets, 4.5mm, Black(250-Count)

less penetration than a BB against various targets I tested but absolute extermination on squirrels at ranges up to 30 feet. More accurate than the rifle in most cases. They destroy my bird feeders and vegetable seedlings and no other measures have been effective. They LOVE cayenne pepper.3 shots, 3 daisy pushers. 2 head shots, 1 center mass and all so humane that they never knew what hit them. Daisy Powerline 880.

I like these pellets. They seem to work very well in most of the co2 pistols and break barrels. Very reasonably priced fairly accurate as well.

Solid performance with no shipping damagePros…MADE IN THE USAConsistentNo damage to skirtsGood finishCost ( on sale)Packaged on a card so less chance of shipping damageCons…Cost ( not on sale)Only 250 in a time so the time takes up more room I usually combine two tins into one to save space

It is really hard to review a pellet. Why? Because every pellet will shoot differently from one air gun to the next. This is the part that makes reviewing air guns, and their pellets, hard. A pellet that shoots tight groups when used in one air gun may shoot 4" groups from another air gun. I do all my target shooting at 10 meters, 33'.I have 2 different .177 rifles and 3 different .177 pistols. Not one brand or type pellet has been best in even 2 of the guns. These pellets shoot horrible from one of my pistols, but are the best of this type from one of my rifles. You will have to try them in your own air guns.This takes1; breaking in your air gun. This is the best use for pellets you have bought that don't shoot well in any of your air guns, or the cheapest pellets you can get. Single stroke pneumatic guns may only need 50 shots to break in enough for pellet testing, but spring powered guns could take as many as 500 shots to break in. Most of my springers were broken in enough to start testing pellets after 50-100 shots.Crossman, Daisy, Benjamin pellets have been around for a while. They are all capable of shooting fine, or not, from most air guns.Types; A good wadcutter, flat head pellet, will not only shoot a tight group from your air gun, but will also cut a clean hole in your target for scoring. Wadcutters also impart a hard shock, large hole, but with limited penetration when hunting. Wadcutters lose their velocity faster than any other shaped pellet, and usually are not the best pellet for long range shooting.Pointed pellets are usually not used for target shooting as they do not cut a full sized clean hole and are harder to score. They lose their velocity a little less quickly than wadcutters, usually weigh a bit more, so are much better for long range shooting. Their main function is to penetrate a target deeper. This makes them a good pellet from high powered air guns for larger game. Like hunting Jack Rabbits.Round nose pellets usually weigh even more than pointed pellets, have about the same drag and are used for long range target shooting, and hunting. They punch more like a wadcutter, but penetrate a bit deeper due to their higher weights.Hallow points are for hunting. They year ragged holes in targets. Can weigh less than many wadcutters, or as much as many round nose pellets. They are designed for high powered air rifles at closer ranges. Used to deliver maximum punch, and tear as big of a hole as possible. Used mostly on small game, ie Cotten tail rabbits at ranges that are close, say under 50'. However a Hallow point to the head of a rabbit at 40' won't be any better than a wadcutter, unless it shoots from your gun with better accuracy.Then there are hyper velocity pellets. Some are made from lighter alloys, or tin or aluminum. Some are steel in a plastic sabot. These light pellets may allow weaker air guns to get more velocity, power, penetration at close range. They are not good long range pellets. While they may let you boast high velocities from your air guns, they are best for short range shooting where maximum penetration of your target is needed. These are the most expensive, least accurate, of the pellets you can shoot.So in the end, a user with 3 air guns may end up finding 9-12 different best pellets for their guns.These pellets may be one of them. You just have to start collecting and trying what you can get, to find out what is best for you and your air guns.The only other reason I haven't covered is that even if you already have a favorite pellet in each type to try these is that many shooters also like to find a pellet in each type that shoots as close as possible to the same POA (point of aim). This takes even more testing and comparing of even more pellets.It is all part of the fun. Getting the best accuracy, consistent performance, and well, getting to shoot a lot at home every evening not only helps you get your system together, but is one heck of a lot of practice, making you a good shot at a fraction of the cost of going to the gun range and shooting off $100's of rounds through your firearms.

Great for plinking

how can you go wrong with crossman

Seems to work okay. A little different shape from my previous Bullets, but works well.

Very accurate and powerful pellets. Hunting small game is highly recommended with these pellets.
