HI, What is the best pellet for accuracy?

First, I will not shoot bbs in mine, as I'm afraid it might damage the rifling. My air rifle likes Crosman pointed pellets (also called Crosmand Hunters), and Winchester round nose. It does pretty well with the Destroyer EX pellets also. With a good scope and shooting from a rest at 10 yards, this gun can give you 1/4" groups measured center to center consistently. Very accurate for a gun priced this low.

I have found that Crosman brand pellets appear to have the best accuracy. Using Daisy pellets has proven to give me much more random groupings. I use both Crosman pointed and wad cutters with similar result. The wad cutter makes a louder plink when it hits a can.

this rifle has adjustable sights plus the adjustable scope. once its dialed in with either, ive found it to be very accurate with a variety of ammo including bbs. depending on distance and target, sometimes we pump it as few as 4 times up to 10 times. great gun, very accurate, just spend a llittle time sighting it and ammo wont be an issue.

As for accuracy it will depend what your gun likes to shoot the best. They work well in my beeman. Best thing to do is type ammo in for your model gun and see what people are saying. As far as killing power lol its a pellet and I don't think hollow vs dome makes a difference personally but I didn't run any tests.

I use a pellet rifle and have found it to be the best target that I have and I have a lot of targets. I have it @ 120 to 130 feet and it is very challenging to hit. The best target ever---!!.

Accuracy is great, considering that it's a break barrel. I've been able to stay on target at 100 yards, outdoors with the wind. 4 - 5 inch groups. I use Crossman domed or hollowpoint pellets.

Both. From my knowledge. But I prefer pellets. They have more punching power and accuracy.

The gun can be very accurate if you put your time in...and find the the pellet it likes. So, I know it can be done. A bit of advice, once you get it firing the way you want, don't change anything.

These are some of the best pellets I've used . Consistent with very little casting lines . They shoot well in both my guns .

My husband was pleased with the pellets. Not sure if they are the same, I couldn't find what he wanted and decided on these. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

Some say 25-30 yards brings the best accuracy. I have yet to go any further than that. Go to Pyramyd Air.com to see full reviews of thus rifle. that is the best response I can give Sir.

i only use mine on squirrel and grackles/crows.....i also like a clean kill and don't feel a light .22 cal pellet at under 1000fps gives a clean kill unless a headshot....the gun is capable of those headshots, so depends on the shooter, but still personally would recommend a different gun.

my favorite pellet is the Crossman Destroyer pellet, but there are two different qualities. the more expensive one is better, less jams but both are better than most other pellets I tried in the pistol. Next are the Crossman hollow points.

There are really no lead-free pellets that have impressed me yet. They're all inferior in both economics and accuracy. Is your concern for lead because of a local or state law or an issue with the possibility of lead consumption? If it's because of lead consumption, the velocities at which pellets impact is low enough that lead does not fragment. If you're dead-set on lead free, buy a box/tube of each and try them. Pick the most accurate. I've heard mixed reviews about them all, and I would think barrel fit is more important than it is in lead.

I use Crossman hollow point .177 pellets. I'm not sure what "name" they go by. They come in a round tin container, about 2 1/2" in diameter and are inexpensive on line. They shoot consistent in my rifle.

After some thousands of shots, I would recommend the best pellets as follows:For target practice:1.- RWS Meisterkugeln (yellow color tag)2.- Crosman MatchFor hunting:1.- RWS domed2.- Crosman hollow pointGamo pellets are bad as the worst, don´t waste your money.Greetings

an eye-shot will kill most small game or pests. steel BBs and the Gamo alloy pellets are quite effective. the Gamo is a good tool; the key subjective factors are your eye, and your hand (or stand).

Wish I could help you. I've only used the BB's and pellets that came with the kit and they've worked well for my needs.

I've used several and did a test of my own on what I have and my favorite is the pellet that has a small copper BB on top. I have it right here but there's no name. It was the more accurate and I have the Predator Polymag, 16 grain. They are lead with the red plastic pointed insert on top. The one I like for distance is the RWS, Hyper Velocity Pellet. Green plastic with the I believe lead pointed top. Do you know how to make not so snug pellets more snug? Carefully put a BB at the open/bottom end of pellet, tap ever so lightly with a gunsmith hammer and it will spread it out a little. Check the fit. Might take a few tries. Gives better FPS.
