H&N Terminator Hollow Points: Most Accurate 177 Pellets Meanwhile, I’ve got a lot of cleaning up on the test range to do! Enjoy!Ģ. So go out and get yourself some of these little fellas. The reliable performance with even and effective expansion is ideal. It’s also such a great pellet for paper range target shooting, and plinking. The Crosman DS177 Destroyer Pellet is perfect for a one-shot kill of rodents and small game that are causing trouble around my home. Getting it done with one shot isn’t just about skill in shooting. The good penetration through my target will get me past the bone and then expand in the soft tissue for humane extermination. Other expanding pellets tend to expand at the impact.įor critters like raccoons, woodchucks, or opossum, if my shot is not spot-on the pellet may strike bone and flatten without penetrating and killing the pest. This advantage for my pest removal is a pretty big deal. On the bigger water jugs, the same results were visible over and over.

With some digging in the tree bark, I uncovered pellets that were penetrating several inches with the full bloom of the expansion. On the paper targets fixed to my trees, the expansion after impact was easy to see. Not just impact triggered expansion….impact followed by expansion. This hunting pellet is designed for complete expansion and energy transfer. 177 pellets are tailor-made for effective performance. Pretty sweet when that’s the case, right? Just goes to show, the best tools for the job don’t always have to cost an arm and a leg. That’s crazy good for such an affordable little pellet.Īside from the ridiculously difficult to open tins, my indulgently excessive shooting was almost entirely smooth and failure-free. There were less than a handful that I would call total duds. That’s almost 500 pellets all by my lonesome. I went through almost two tins of pellets in one weekend. Like a kid in a candy store, I was reloading over and over for hours. With all of those tempting targets dangling from trees and sitting atop every flat surface within 40 yards, there was A LOT of shooting done on day one. The reliability of the Destroyers was pretty remarkable given the circumstances. The dish style pointed-pellet/hollow-point combo was true in its travel without fail. I was on target for all of them the entire time. Man, I set up a treasure-trove of targets to shoot at all over the dang place for this. Testing for that scenario was a hodge-podge course of 15-35+ yards of paper targets, water bottles, and jugs, as well as the trusty ole soda cans. Most of the use that I get from my break barrel air rifle is with small game and pest removal. The accuracy of Crosman’s dish pellet was spot-on. You won’t believe some of the results that I had with an air rifle pellet. A weekend of testing these pellets was a fun project.
