The Gamo Rocket 0.177 cal pellets work extremely well in my Gamo Wildcat Whisper. They group well at 25 yards and have good penetration on rabbit size pests . Good price.

Yes, it costs more than regular pellets, but the penetration power is greater.

Just ran about 50 of these "rockets" thru my well used Crossman fury. The gun likes heavy177 pellets. After a few adjustments of the CV-life scope, Im doing nickle size groups at 20yds. Amazed I am. Already put these in my cart for a reorder. As we well know, try many type pellets till your gun says "yummy...thats the one for me" ...... get a tin of these and listen to YOUR gun.Edit 10-13-24: the CV Life scope did not hold up to the springer, nitro-piston recoil. After a zero and 6 or 7 repeate shots, scope creeps upwards. Shots go higher. After I swapped out with a BSA sweet-22, went thru the zero & all that, I shot the rest of the can of Rocket pellets (at least 100) all so very stable. Rocket pellets are fantastic.

Like most gamo pellets don't expect great uniformity or perfect dimensions. However as a steel penetrator this is second only to h&n hornet and the very similar but higher quality RWS powerball pellets. Only a couple unusable pieces. Overall not bad.

I've tried several other pellets models (stoeger and crosman) these are by far the most accurate in my remington express hunter (1200 fps). @15 yards, pellets holes touch each other. They should sell in bigger quantity.

Weapon: sig p226 semi-auto blow back pistol (co2 powered)compared against gamo luxor (5.5 grain copper jacket)and Crossman Destroyer ( 7.5 grain)Each type was tested on a fresh 12g Co2into a standard Ballistic gel block ( the powdered mix also available on Amazon!)and finally a mason jar at 10 yards.The Rocket-- well, it rocks! Flies just as flat as the others listed, but has a bit more punch--- would love to try this with a decent rifle! It had average 1 inch more penetration than the crossman destroyer and double the penetration of the Gamo Lexor -- which is supposed to be the "penetrator " of the 3.All 3 went at least 3 inches (most shots where further) into the gel block up to 16 shots -- after about 9-10 of 16 shots, a noticeable difference could be seen ( these were all rapid fire-- so could just be the co2 ""freeze"" effect )Also -- my sig pistol happens to shoot pretty dead on and I know a lot of them don't- Sorry guys! ( I got lucky I guess) -- so if I shot twice at same target point--- at least a few times the hole was just enlarged......so those results are a bit sideways.Interesting -- or maybe not, as I am new to AIR powered - none of the rounds expanded or even remotely deformed in gel. I suspect they are just not moving fast enough -- but to be honest, My sig is putting out 400fps on the first 16 ( one magazine) (factory claims 500fps...in their wildest dreams!!!!) -- I still wouldn't want to be on the wrong end of any of these rounds at close range.Mason Jar at 10 yards: ( 30 feet )Gamo rocket shattered it first shot... 8 shots-- 8 shattered mason jars ( round broke apart into many pieces could not really recover much of anything)Beeman Destroyer chipped the surface -- never could break it ( round had wonderful deformation-- like a slow moving hollow point normally would do )Gamo Lexor bounced off -- didn't bother to shoot more than a few times... ( bounced off -- the tips were dulled and that's about it- just not enough mass here for a pistol) Might be Great in a rifle though-- So don't get me wrong about the Lexor!! I just don't think it's for co2 pistols.Bottom line:All 3 are potent at close range - all three seem to be flat flying and pretty good for accuracy, all are priced cheap enough to afford, but if you are actually looking for the most "knock down" bang for your buck, out of a sig p226 co2 at least, I'd ( will be) use the gamo rocket.A word on co2 pistols for self -defense:I don't recommend this or any air powered item for self defense-- I personally like my REAL SiG P226 for that- that said, many people in the world today are lucky to even have access to an air gun. Keep your shots as close as possible and aim at the face/eyes/throat...

I shoot these out of 2 guns, a 1200 fps break barrell and a crossman 880 pump. Both guns shoot them well and have been a hard hitting pellet. They are my 2nd go to pellet. My first choice is Premier Ultra Magnums though. In my pump you don't want a heavy grain pellet as the velocity isnt that high anyways as I usually shoot a 7 grain or so out of the crossman pump. But when I am hitting a squirrel at close range, lets say 10-15 yards I don't mind the 9.6 grain in it. As its going to lose major fps due to the weight of pellet in that gun(less power) but I want that impact at a short distance. (also don't think its ideal or good to shoot a heavier grain out of a not so powerful gun as the 880 pump as its harder on the guns internals) to force that heavier grain out of the chamber. But I have had no issues what so ever. My break barrel pellet gun shoots these great as well pretty accurate though this gun as well. I will shoot up to a 11 grain from this gun, which I have killed squirrels at 50 yards with the heavy grain pellet. OVerall great pellet, they are not very dirty with lead as you get with a lot of pellets. I have not found any deformed ones either in the pack. Which you can pick through some brands and have to pick the good ones out to shoot..which is a waste of time and money. Well shaped, shoot well in both of my guns and leave a great impact and accurate as well. I will purchase them again as they are a good buy, and good clean pellet for the money. FYI, by going a little heavier grain you can keep your gun from shooting speed of sound----if you have a high powered pellet gun---which in turn will keep it more quiet as well. I don't care about losing some fps as much, I care about the impact when that pellet hits my target! :) SO get them :)
