Gamo Platinum PBA .177 Cal, 5.1 gr - 100 ct

I didn't buy them for target shooting for what they were made for is high vel.hunting and penetration and I am very happy with them
I got high vel and they went through both sides of a steel soup can

Pros
They are well made and I found no bent or distorted pellets and they did what they were supposed to give high velocity and penetration

Cons
None the only thing I have to say is $ 14.99 is a little high for 100 so I wlll only use them in the field.

This is a hard penetratng round.

Pros
penetrating

Cons
In my hihgest velocity guns theese rounds don't shoot stable. at a distance innacurate.

Platinum pellets work excellent in performance and price

Easy to load
Lead free
Increased velocity

Pros
Lead Free Nice Material Ballistic Alloy

Good Shooting, Grouping Was Good,

Pros
Good Shooting, Grouping Was Good, Penetrated Well

Cons
Good Crack From Umarex Octane

Maybe, just maybe superlight pellets shot by a Magnum are squirrely??

Pros
The loud BANG these make when you miss will scare the birds away (for you tree huggers).

Cons
See above.

I shoot pistols and rifles. Some firearms function better with cheap ammo, some the more expensive. Some preform better with heavier grain lead, some with lighter. My Gamo is more dead on accurate with the Platinum pellets. These are lighter which allows them to have a higher fps than other pellets, but faster is often stable. On a calm day (no wind) the Platinum is my pellet of choice.

Pros
Light weight which increases the fps when speed counts.

Cons
Pricey. No 2 pellets in the pack are created equal.

Loved it. Worth it.

It is definitely getting the velocity up there as indicated by the crack of them breaking the sound barrier. To my surprise there was actually a group on the paper but it was about 2 inches @ 25 yards. I'll probably shoot em up plinking they were freebies with my Gamo Bone Collector Bull Whisper.

Pros
they were free with my gun, They apparently meet velocity claims.

Cons
Accuracy sub par for serious pest control, The sonic crack is actually a detriment when trying to eliminate multiple garden pests.

I recently purchased the PBA platinum's and compared it with the Blue tip Gamo's I think that these are good for shorter distance compared to the blue tips. They are so light that if there is any light wind past 25 yards it is not as accurate. I am still testing these though and will update you with my second try against other pellets. They are very fast though and make the gun sound like a 22 caliber rifle.

Pros
powerful and no lead

Cons
too light but haven't used them for hunting yet.
