Shot eight tins and not even one jammed. This 2000 rounds.
Precision Max Pointed is not a bad pellet, depends on the type of air gun shooting them. They are rather light for high power riffles. I've not had very good luck with pointed pellets of any brand in high power riffles.For me hollow points and round head pellets of heaver weight work best over 800 ft per sec. Precision max pointed works very well in all my co/2 and break barrel pistols.
I bought these to use as low price plinking ammo. They're too light to shoot well in my Bone Collector, so I wasn't expecting the same performance as I'd get from a heavier more expensive pellet. As expected, accuracy is pretty poor in a high power rifle. However, the biggest problem is that loading became a chore. Every pellet in the tin I opened was slightly smaller in diameter than the breech. Therefore, unless I was careful, the pellet would fall out while I tried to close the action. I thought it might just be the Bone Collector so I tried these pellets with an older springer with the same results. Either standard .177 pellets are slightly larger than .177" or these pellets are slightly smaller. Either way, their inability to seat firmly in the breech of my rifles makes them pretty useless. I'm going to try them in a Crosman Vigilante revolver to see if they work better. However, if they fit as loosely in the Vigilante clip as they did in my springers, I expect I'll be clearing some jams.
Pros
Inexpensive pellets if you happen to own a .170 caliber air gun. Otherwise, maybe they can be pinched onto fishing line.
Cons
Only half of the product name is accurate - they are made by Daisy and they are pointed pellets. However, they are neither exemplars of precision nor are they .177 caliber.
Im using the gamo hornet It could be better, about 10 yards its very accurate the farther the worse and some just go wherever they want
Pros
Very accurate if less then 10 yards
Cons
Horrible long distance
Pellets go random directions at times
These will be my plinking ammo of choice for bouncing cans and random targets! They are inexpensive and shot surprisingly well through my Gamo Bull Whisper BC. Giving about 5/8" groups at 25 yards. Heck a little more testing it may just be my "all the time" pellet Best groups I have gotten with anything is just a hair under 1/2 inch and those pellets cost about five times as much and the next runner up was a 1/2 inch as well and cost about 2.5 times as much so these may just be THE pick.
Pros
good tin, great accuracy, wonderful pricing!!
Cons
little dirty, not nice and shiny (who cares they WORK)
pellets are dirty inconsistent in shape
Pros
price
Cons
not shaped well
I had been shooting Crosman pointed pellets from my 1200 FPS Mendoza rifle with great success. I had no problems hitting quarters at 20 yards. I ran out and picked up a pack of these to try out. They are all over the place. Accuracy is horrible, unless you are within 10 yards. Most of the skirts of the pellets were rough looking and the fitment in the barrel seemed to change every pellet. These pellets might be fine for a 600fps gun but if you have a break barrel I would go with the Crosman pointed pellets over these in a minute. Very disappointed with them.
Pros
Cheap
Cons
Very inaccurate with high velocity rifle.
I have a Gamo Silent Stalker 1200-1300 fps and these pellets were terrible! I couldn't get my scope sighted in even from 15 yards. I've had much better results with the Crosman hollowpoint.
They shoots ok out of my crosman pumpmaster classic but were very Inaccurate in my Gamo Big Cat 1250 if you want a good cheap pellet for higher fps Rifles i would suggest the crosman pointed hunting pellets
Pros
cheap
Cons
Inaccurate
Question?
Login to ask someone who bought this product.What is the ballistics coefficient for the Daisy Max Precision pointed pellet .177 cal?
asked William F. Hagen
I bought these cheap and decided to give them a try. They are consistent in size, way better than Crosman premium 7.4g pointed. Shooting Winchester round nose, I am shooting a group smaller than a quarter at 30 yards. These Daisy Precision Max pellets are not even on the paper. Probably do great in a lower powered rifle but don’t do good out of my nitro piston.
Pros
The ones I bought were consistent in size
Cons
Not accurate out of a nitro piston rifle
