Gamo Rocket .22 Cal, 14.3 Grains, Ballistic Tip, 100ct

Very accurate exterminated many squirrels, possums and a raccoon with Gamo Rocket .22 Cal ammo using a Gamo rifle.

Purchased a tin of these pellets along with a Gamo .22 air rifle for crow and varmint control in a suburban neighborhood. Clearly a shotgun would have been the safer and higher efficacy preference but I didn't think my neighbors would smilingly approve.After zeroing the scope on beer cans at 50 meters using these pellets, I was satisfied with their accuracy and consistency. I had to be certain of the accuracy before attempting to plink nuisance critters from my yard and trees, as I didn't want to miss. It had to be a one shot - one kill transaction.So far, these rounds have impressed me with their accuracy and lethality. Over the past year I have taken three shots with these pellets and made three clean, nearly instantaneous kills. Two crows and a grey squirrel never knew what hit them and were dropped cleanly with no involuntary movement after impact.The 30' squirrel shot landed squarely on the shoulder blade, punched a clean, bloodless hole and dropped it like a potato. There was very little movement after hitting the ground. There was also no exit wound and no blood. I figured the round must have fragmented upon impact and caused massive internal devastation in the vitals.The design of this pellet is interesting. It has a copper BB at its tip to provide inertial mass, but is cupped and propelled by a lead pellet. My guess is that the mass of the BB slams into the target and the lead pellet then fragments around it upon impact.Figured I'd share my story since I'm impressed with these pellets. They are extremely accurate and are now 3 for 3 against crows and squirrels, which are by no means easy animals to drop in their tracks. Recommended!

Accurate and powerful

Tried on my new Gamo rifle and it’s not the most precise. Expected tighter clusters on target

basically a .22 pellet with a .177 bb inside, pretty cool idea! it does actually expand most of the time for a double penetrating effect

It is a neat looking but its accuracy is not superior to the much less expensive bulk pellets (500 counts) costing less than $15.

great ammo, hits way harder than I thought it would, punched straight through the wood, then the wall and into the far wall of my shed.

They are definitely not the best option for sharp shooting. At 25 yards using a 1100 fps rifle I can group them in radius of about 2 to 3 inches. Which is good, but I tend to shoot small game and I want something more accurate. Also I have a gamo rifle with a 10 round magazine and I’ve noticed that some of these pellets fell to the ground when I’m reloading, not sure what’s that about but it doesn’t happens when I use other brands.
