Crosman P1250 .177-Caliber Pointed Pellets (1250-Count)

When originally getting these pellets I was hesitant because of their cheap price compared to other types of Crosman and even other companies' pellets.To my surprise they are awesome! Highly recommended.Very good shape, and good construction. They fly straight and flat.If I had to choose a single type of pellet from all manufacturers and types to use from this day on this would be it and here's why. For starters there are by far some of the cheapest pellets. Those pellets have an amazing accuracy and consistency. I can easily hit beer cans at 60 yards all day, consistently. It can be stretched even more depending on conditions. Just as an example though, it usually takes me 3-4 pellets, but I'm able to hit and break a straw in half from 40 yards. To me that's superb accuracy. They are also very well manufactured, with no bad ones in the box. There was some dust left in the "milk carton", if anyone is wondering, but not much and nothing significant to talk about. No squashed or deformed pellets. The shape is amazing too. While it is a pointed pellet, it's not as pointed as other pointed pellets and it's more of a domed looking pellet with a slight tip in the middle. It may not hit as hard as a hollow point, or a flathead, or maybe even slightly less impact then a rounded counterpart but it's better over all. It flies fast and straight, while having some flattening effect similar to a rounded pellet. The reason why I like it more is because I value accuracy more then a hard hit. If I can place my shot where I want it, it doesn't have to mushroom the size of a basketball for it to work.Just and FYI. I have tried a variety of other pellets such as other types of Crosman (also very good), Daisy (very nice pellets), GAMO (all varieties are possibly worst pellets I've tried), JSB (good quality), etc.Accuracy, with good performance at a low cost. One of the best pellets for a low price. Highly recommended.

This a great price at a great value. We shoot these pellets currently with a Gamo Big Cat 1250, Ruger Explore with a small crossman scope, and a Ruger Exploer with only the iron sites and it performs well in each. With the Ruger, my sons have take several squirrels anywhere form 10 to 30 yards with those fairly simple pellet guns. So far with the Big Cat they seem to be more consistent than the lesser grade walmart purchased dome shaped crossmans we have used, better than the crossman hollow point destoryer. The only other pellet we have found to be as accurate have been the crossman wad cutters which will fly consistently straight, but no kill power when it comes to varmints. I hit a squirrel right behind the ear at about 15 yards with a Ruger Explorer and the wad cutter pellets and it lived to run away, until the next time we saw it in our yard. I am going to purchase a Stoeger X20 Suppressor next week and will update this review after about 250 or so shots with these. I estimate similar results and will more than likely use this as our everyday pellet and our hunting pellet for anything up to about a 6-8 lbs rabbit under 30 yards.UPDATE 11/6/12:After a month or so, trying various pellets in a Stoeger X20 Supperssor I have found that these pellets are the best economical choice still maintaining accruacy. It seems my Stoeger is more picky than I initally thought. These pellets worked well initally and I thought, I will try the Crosman Premier Wadcutter since a great deal of people rave about it's consistency for target shooting. Not with Stoeger I guess. I tried various distances from 10 up to about 35 yards, shooting from a rest and could not hold more than 2 pellets in any particular area the the spreads at about 20 yards were anywhere from 2-4 inches apart in spreads. I began to think that the scope was damaged. Then I went to the Umarex Superdome Field line pellets and I realized if I could hit a the neck of a tobasco bottle 3 times at 40 yards, it might be the pellets. Went back to the Crosman Field Pellets and calmed down again realizing, my gun just did not like the pellets. I was suprised to find that the other 2 guns we were using that day, Gamo Big Cat, and Ruger Exploer did not care for them either. Out of about 6 different types the Crossman field hunting pellets has proven to be the best for plinking, target shooting and small game hunting for the price. We will always have a pint of these laying around....always!

This is a great value, and my preferred sub-sonic pellet. It has multiple uses, so no need to spend a lot more money for a high performance pellet... just dial your sights in using this pellet, practice more, and have fun with it. This thing does clean varmint kills when community safety is a concern, and i find it looses a lot of it's energy after 50 yards. I prefer public safety over pellet performance any day. I found it perfect for suburb varmint control, and reasonably humane as has sufficient penetration energy. For any targets under 35 yards, this pellet is perfect. Squirrels no longer mutilate my birth feeder, and my target shooting skills has improved. It's safe enough that with a 1/2" thick hardwood backstop, you could even do target practice in your own garage, which i find useful in dialing in an air rifle.

I have gone thru 2 cartons of these in the last few weeks. I will buy more.I like the consistency of the performance of this pellet. They seem quite accurate, with a few stragglers out there. Good value for an everyday shoot, hunting, and target practice. Nice thing is, they came to my door in 2 days.Try Them.

First off its Crosman, so it is a good pellet.After much study I discovered that the .177, when purchasing in the tins, may have up to 3 different sizes in the skirt. If one is looking for consistency, it can drive one a little crazy.When purchasing in the "milk containers" ALL the pellets are the same size.I still buy what is on sale (ie tins -250/500), but I now prefer to buy in bulk with the advantage of all being consistent.Hope that Helps - Happy Shooting

I've been buying these pellets for target shooting with my wife based on price and uniformity. They are a consistent pellet and the price is the best when you are shooting a large number of shots in one outing, we will between us shoot 300 or more each time, and it gets a little pricey with most other pellets unless you really drop in quality. We've been shooting for about a year now. The one thing I do with each package is clean away the lose lead particals by washing, rinsing and drying and then I use a little bit of pellet lube. It is a bit of a process but pays off in the long run. We shoot under 500 feet per second rifles so the wieght is a concern and these are one of the lighter pellets on the market. Beware that crosman make another pointed pellet that is a little heavier, they come in 250 piece tins, these pellets weigh 7.4 grains and the others weigh 7.9 grains.

Just what I need in pellets. A must have for target shooting and small game. Please keep in stock. Thank you. :)

So far so good, these pellets shoot well. Shot a plastic target about 25 yrds out and all I heard was a big SMACK and the target fell apart. This was with a cheapo 500 fps air rifle. These little suckers hit hard, accuracy lies solely on the shooter, but I've had good times with these pellets. Would buy them again in bulk. I shot a nice hole in a soup can too at around 15 feet. These definitely would put a serious hurting on any small critter under 25 yards and I doubt they would get up.
