I am trying to find a lead free pellet that will accurately shoot from my pistol. My pistol is a TREVOX break barrel. When loading the first Predator GTO pellet, I had to use a little push with my fingers to force the pellet head into the barrel. I shot a total of 12 GTO pellets with my pistol. For all 12 shots, I had to push the pellet head into the barrel and the accuracy was terrible. I did some test shots to compare the accuracy of the Predator GTO pellets to two other lead free pellets that I have. The two other lead free pellets that I have are the Crosman PowerShot Fast Flight Penetrator .177 Cal., 5.4gr and the Crosman PowerShot Gold Flight Penetrator .177 Cal., 8.5gr. My basement shooting range is exactly 10 yards.For the first comparison, I shot 3 Fast Flight pellets and then 3 Predator GTO pellets. The 3 Fast Flight pellets were inside a 1/4 inch radius circle and all three hits were inside the "bull's eye" circle of my target. The 3 Predator GTO pellets were inside a 1 inch radius circle and the closest hit to the center of the target was 2 inches.For the second comparison, I shot 3 Gold Flight pellets and then 3 Predator GTO pellets. The 3 Gold Flight pellets were inside a 1/4 inch radius circle and all three hits were inside the "bull's eye" circle of my target. The 3 Predator GTO pellets were inside a 2 inch radius circle and the closest hit to the center of the target was 1.5 inches.

Good quality product, seems to load easily, I like the added velocity in my .177 pellet pistol. Just want I needed.

Very accurate dime size groupings up to 25yds with my Gamo swarm fusion 10x gen3i .177 caliber 1075 fps just under supersonic sound so you get the speed & accuracy everyone is looking for. Highly recommend!

These pellets are the only ones so far that can make my target flip up as it is supposed to.I'm using a crosman vigilante and each of the targets flipped up and I had to shoot the top target to release them.That also shows that these pellets shoot accurately.

Sure, every airgun is unique and your mileage may vary, even with exactly the same model air rifle and pellets, but for what it's worth, after initial sighting-in with about 5 or 10 shots each of 8 different pellets in .177, it turned out my spankin' new Daisy 880 was dead-on accurate right out of the box using this lead-free ammunition with a domed head. Even better, a similar product from another manufacturer turned out to be nearly as accurate, and that was the lead-free, gold-plated, domed Raptor from Gamo. All of the test shooting was done indoors at a distance I'd guesstimate as not more than 25 feet using only the built-in 'lead sights' on the Daisy 880. This should work out very well for me, as 10 yards should be the longest shot necessary to take care of any small pests in the front or back yards of my home. Since both of the accurate pellets were domed and out-performed everything else tried, I now plan to order domed pellets from some of the other manufacturers for testing, including H&N, RWS, Beeman and Crosman, so it looks like I have more shooting to do before I settle on any one pellet definitively. :-)As things worked out, all 8 types of the pellets tried turned out to be at least somewhat' accurate, which I found surprising. Even the worst of the worst was off-target only by a smidge, and all the patterns were pretty darned good as well. This is probably because of the air rifle more than anything else, but I didn't try any cheap pellets (other than the free Daisy flat heads) and no BBs, so it looks like my 880 appreciates a little higher quality pellet and lead-free absolutely, just as the manufacturer suggests. Also, the1st and 2nd place pellets that out-performed everything else were domed and lead-free both, with the Predator GTO the most accurate and the gold-plated Raptor a close second (at almost the same price too), so I'll stick with them, although I plan to try some heavier domed pellets from other manufacturers too eventually.Since the Predator GTO pellets seem to be just the thing for my Daisy (with the Gamo Raptor a close runner-up), for now I'm tickled big-time with the rifle and these pellets both. Interestingly, the online write-up for the Predator GTO says they're 5.79gr, but the tin says otherwise and I think I do too, as they feel about the same in my hands as others I have around 7 grains. Anyway, the label on the tin of 200 has 6.79gr printed on it, not 5.79, which feels about right to me compared to the other ~7gr pellets. Another big surprise, at least to me, were the Daisy 7.87gr flat-nosed lead pellets from the tin of 500 that shipped with the rifle!. These were the #3 pellet for accuracy, they're very cheap everywhere and since they turned out to be fairly accurate too, I'll definitely put 'em to use and maybe buy more eventually, but the Predator GTO pellets will be my goto ammo from now on unless something better comes along; time will tell I suppose. Right now, I'm loving them. Great pellet and reasonably priced too. Try them in your air rifle.

I have shot a ton of pests in my yard and chicken coop with these things! Very accurate! Today my husband grabbed the air gun and another brand of pellets and missed time after time. I was doubting his shot, but when I saw the tin he had grabbed I knew it was the pellet- I also had terrible accuracy with those pellets, and am going to throw them away. Ever since I bought the GTO's like I said, I have gotten rid of an amazing amount of pests. Will not buy anything else. Plus the fact that they are lead free is a good thing if i shoot anything in the chicken yard.

Exactly as described, seemed as "accurate as the shooter is" (meaning where you shoot, yes it will go there, don't don't blame bad aiming on the bullet đŸ˜‰)
