Shoot a lot of them in .22 the .177 are heavy for some reason. I have the swarm whisper and it piles them up. It actually shoots everything fairly well
I just ordered a tin of .22 RWS wad cutters that I’m looking forward to trying. I shot them through my RWS Diana model 45 years ago and were awesome. I’m plinking now with a 1322 with high pressure magnum Airguns valve that doubled the FPS
@@ALLABOUTAIRGUNSI'm interested and seeing how RWS super hollow points behave in 22 caliber I have used them in 177 for pest control and they do a great job at stop in pest like large rats and mice and squirrels
Great insight into the Piranha pellets. I have not had any luck with the Piranha pellets in any of my 4 other air rifles except for my Crosman 1322 pumper. The 1322 seems to only like the smaller sized pe[[ets of 5.48 to 5.50 size. Larger pellets load hard or will not load. At 10 yards at just over 600 FPS the Piranhas will shoot 5 pellets under a nickel? Did you measure the head and skirt size of the pellets?
Thanks I have checked these before but not lately I know the head size is greater than 5.51mm more like 5.53mm off the top of my head and the skirt is 5.6mm
I have the crosman 1322 it likes heavy pellets and also like the light ones to. You just got to finesse the pellets in there and you're 1322 can shoot some pretty big lead the biggest LED I shot out of mine so far is 19.5 grain domes from crossman the crosman ultra-heavy and I've seen guys shoot up to like 30 gr pellets out of the 1322 with no problem unmodified gun 2
Piranha pellets have a different trajectory than the dome or hollow point Crosmans. If adjusted and fired exclusively they're good but switch while shooting and all bets are off.
That’s an interesting review ! I have never had this pellet to shoot accurate in any of my guns. The destroyer pellet falls into this category too. I started buying the crosman domed ultra magnum pellets at our local tractor supply store a few years ago. These pellets are amazing in my hw98 and the Gamo urban 22. At 25 to 40 yards these two guns will put these pellets through the same hole. Good review my friend . Thanks !
Ive had these blow the seals out of a pump air gun theyre definitely a snugger fit in the chamber. Shoots fine out of my break barrel 1200fps. Really well out of it actually
Hey James great video as usual and like I said before thanks for the information on my crosman shockwave in 22 caliber on how to clean it better but I got a pellet for you to try I like how it performed have you tried the crossmen extra heavy domes 19.5 grain it's a nice long-range pellet and the guns I have would you please do a review on it cuz I haven't seen any on any of the air gun forums are people using this pellet
Just a guy with an old .177 springer that never shot well.. So I thought why not.. Well after some basic maintenance and some of your tips and tricks. I shot damn fine group at 30 yds.. First time ever, now I might be shooting a lot more .. Just thought you should know, you help a lot more folks then you realize.. See Ya
I’m not a fan of the Crosman Piranha pellets. No real expansion observed in my pellet trap. The Crosman domed hollow points are great though in my break barrel...very accurate and inexpensive.
I watched these spiraling out of my 880. The domes shoot laser straight to 30 yards and drop a couple inches at 70. Also bought mine recent @ wally world. 400 for $6.36.
Hey James I know you have quite a few guns 1 airgun that I definitely recommend you buying is the Benjamin 392 22 caliber pump air rifle tonight shooting gun and with a American Walnut stock it's in it out of this world air rifle
The pellet that the Benjamin 392 .22 caliber grouped the absolute best for me is the JSB 18.13 grain Diablo shooting one ragged hole out to 40 yards. I shot a lot of different pellets through it, and even the FX Hybrid Slug because I was curious. It didn’t like the slugs.
Hi James, thanks for another interesting video. Can you comment about comparison between 177 and 22 results? Would you predict similar spread just flatter getting to the target? Also, can you setup your baseline(s), where regular follows can relate back to know if you are actually see a pattern of improvement? Thanks again
Thanks! Most skirts across my collection of pellets I have a 5.6mm diameter when I run the file across it squares the skirts walls and shows whether skirt is centered or oval...seems the oval allows the pellet to fly better because it must act as a ramp for the air allowing the pellet to center it self at most possible
I read and watched a lot of reviews and I decided against this pellet.I use the Crosman Premier Domed and Hollow Points and the GAMO ROCKET .22 for my GAMO SWARM WHISPER.
Me and my crosman air guns must be the exception here. The Piranha pellets shoot very good out of all 3 of my 22 cal guns. Almost hole in a hole at 30 yards. One is a modified Co2 2400KT with a 21" barrel, one a Crosman Phantom springer, and the other one is my self built Crosman Discovery. I really like these pellets. How often do you find one pellet that shoots well out of all of your guns.
Nice! It really depends on the distance I'm shooting ...sometimes I modify the pellets to better my initial results at various ranges try to stay sub moa at all ranges unless I have to settle with something less
Nope they shoot amazing out of my Ruger max impact elite to hole in hole easy out to 30yards and they destroy black birds exit wounds bigger than a quarter
The piranhas are a question mark. One day they shoot good, hole in hole, the next day you might hit 2-3 hole in hole and the rest may hit high, low, left or right. Does it in all my (6) 22 pcp rifles. (Don't know why) What I like about these pellets is they do major, major damage just like the H&N terminators. They are not really made for 50 yrds, unless its rabbits and squirrels, racoons, and foxes. You can hit birds @ 50 yrds but it wont be on a consistent bases. Also they tear up, and leave big exit holes. So if you shoot pigeons or doves to eat, then you will need head shots, otherwise they tear up the birds. I've shot crows @ 50 yrds chest shots and when you pick them up and see the exit it made, you be like DAMN. Does the same thing to a turtle shell.
I fully get what you're saying on the price but it's still a good price compared to other companies like H&N and so on. Some of these companies prices are insane especially when it's only a 150 count for around $25 to $30 bucks on some of these other brands.
I’ve used 1000 rounds of these in 22 caliber and was not impressed. But then again I was running a break barrel 22. The ruger redhawk. Yea actually forgot there not 500 count. And are the same weight as the cross man hollow point both are 14.3 grains I found no difference they were accurate for me but limited expansion.
Question with the accuracy did you shoot rested or free handed? I ask cause I had some mix results myself and I know my scope is on. I mean honestly accuracy will always depend on several thing's as it's also up to the shooter to be steady and of course you have wind and unfortunately as I've learned over my 30+ year's that you always have those few pellets from any company that aren't exactly perfect. Even on higher end pellets I've pulled several out of tins that shouldn't have made it into the tin to begin with.
1:35 "...a little bit more expensive..." A little bit? At $6.00 for 500, that's more than double. At $6.24 (the current price), it's still nearly double. Pretty expensive for that performance.
They come in 400 tins and after shipping they are far from a deal when you can buy the Premier Hollow Points or Domed for less at most Walmart stores and they come in tins of 500 not 400 pellets.👍
Soooo filing pellets DOES work ! 😮 🤔 Cancer / Accuracy 🤔 Accuracy / Cancer... I guess you could do a quicker and better job flattening them out just by robbing them on a sanded paper or even on a simple sheet of paper. It should work.
$10.50 ÷ 400 = 2.6 c a shot. I sometimes hold a free, but quite costly day class of rodent manners teaching. No papers to fill out or hidden charges. By the tunneling, concrete-threatening guerillas getting a 16 gr., .22 caliber chunk of lead thru the lungs, they find their afternoon plans spoiled, without the pellet expanding at twice the price. Really, at that scale, a .22 is a baseball.
I shoot an Impact Max, the Umarex Ruger, in .22.
The CPHP 14.3 gr are fantastic. If I miss, i did something wrong. And that isn't often.
Ill see what I can do!
Shoot a lot of them in .22 the .177 are heavy for some reason. I have the swarm whisper and it piles them up. It actually shoots everything fairly well
I've noticed that my gamo seems to love these, damn near same hole precision.
@@justindunlap1235 yeah these and the hollow points are really good the ruger super points are pretty sweet also inside of 30 yds

I'll see what I can do ...I've never shot RWS definitely be interested

yes, agree too interesting to see the rws as well. what is the survey on followers 177 vs. 22 vs other ?
Crosman F4 Break Barrel .177
Bought Piranha hollow point for about $7 at Walmart. 400 count.
BTW, great video. Informative.
thanks!
I get the crosman hollow points .177 5.28 for 500 very cheap..the only thing I can find to shoot cheaper is crosman Copperheads BBS 8.46 for 6000

Agree. Those ultra dome 10.5 are great.
I watched these piranhas spiraling out of my 880. The domes shoot laser straight to 30 yards and drop a couple inches at 70.
I've been stocking up on pellets, but I didn't buy these because they were a litte more. Although, I do want to try them.

Yesss. I would love to see info on these heavier long range pellets from Crosman. Didn't know they were a thing. For .177?
What's strange is that in 177 these pellets are heavy 10.5 gr.
That's comparable with 18gr in 22.

They are $10 a tin at my Walmart.

Also, can you setup your baseline(s), where regular follows can relate back to know if you are actually see a pattern of improvement? Thanks again
Thanks yes the 177 would be flatter and in my newest video I made some guidelines
I'm using a Beeman RS2 with these they hit hard like a slug but don't act like hollow points in my opinion I tested on a apple at about 15 yard's
Well Done! Very interesting. Who would have thought. So you just file to a diameter equal to the top of the card? This leaves the skirt at 5.56?

Big facts. I watched these spiraling out of my 880. The domes shoot laser straight to 30 yards and drop a couple inches at 70.
Does not the pellet hit bottom of water pail??
It probably does but depending on the pellet design ...like Crosman destroyer or jsb predator poly mag fully expand depending on the gun also

Use fruit or something! Paper?
I got a game and they shoot perfect
Awesome!
