Beeman Round Nose .22 Cal, 15.2 gr - 175 ct

I mostly shoot low powered airguns 10-40 yards. My Hammerli 850 just loves these pellets. At 40 yards I can consistently shoot my tightest groups or hit targets almost every time with the Hammerli 850. The Diana Chaser does well with these to at 10 yards so far.

Pros
Good general pellet and good price.

Good for plinking . Hunting no more than 20 yards or so .

Pros
Cheap

Cons
none

Accurate,clean,very versatile pellet
Shoots great out of my Benjamin varmint NP power pack

Pros
Weight,accuracy,no leading of the fingers

Cons
Screw on lid would be nice

I tested these pellets on a Benjamin Trail NP rifle and two Crosman 1322 (one with stock barrel and the other with a 23-inch barrel and rifle stock).

On the stock 1322 pistol these chronied at 423 FPS with 0.3125 CTC. On this day I tested this against a JSB Exact Diabolo and RWS Super Dome. This grouped as well as the JSB with equivalent power (6 FPE).

On the 1322 carbine with 23-inch barrel I measured 496 FPS with 0.375 CTC. On this day I tested this against RWS Super Dome, JSB Exact Diabolo, Tech Force Pointed and Crosman Hollow Point. For grouping this came in third. For power this tied the JSB Exact Diabolo for second at 8.3 FPE. The RWS and Tech Force both generated 8.4 FPE and the Crosman Hollow Point generated 8.2 FPE.

On the Benjamin Trail NP rifle these chronied at 689 FPS (for 16 FPE) with 0.3125 CTC (as on the Crosman 1322 pistol). While not as efficient a Crosman Hollow Point which chronied at 748 FPS with 0.125 CTC I feel that they should be effective for pest control.

Pros
Reasonable performance for a heavier pellet.

Cons
I would prefer to see these in a screw top can.
