David Nickerson Magnum Point Pellets (.22)

I thought I'd try these as a stock pellet to use when I'm low on H&Ns or Excites. I've been using them in my Walther RM8 with disappointing results. A significant number have deformed or poorly formed skirts. Consequently you cannot consistently achieve a close grouping. I can't honestly recommend them: both accuracy and penetration are poor. These pellets don't live up to the manufacturers' claims. If I can add a photo or two later I will.NEW EDIT 08/08/2018I mentioned I would add a couple of pics to this review if I could, so here you are. I retested David Nickerson against RWS Superdome for my own peace of mind - customers sometimes submit a review which they later find is not as fair as first thought. This is "benefit-of-the-doubt". My initial misgivings about the Nickerson pellets were about accuracy. They are still. The pics explain more:Pic #1 shows a comparison between Nickerson and RWS Superdome, 4 rounds on each circle, standing using a tripod. The first circle is the zero target, the second the dialled sight [ie. the scope has been adjusted - I'm using a very economical AGS 4*32-50]. The Walther was recharged to 250 bar on each account.Pic #2 shows 8 rounds on each target, same card, seated with tripod. The Nickerson "flyers" clearly upset a close grouping.OK, it's maybe picky, but if I was a rat or rabbit hoping for a clean death, I'd be hoping the shooter was using the Superdomes. There's more but I hope this helps. I'm around on [email protected]

These pellets disapointed me straight away . I am new to airguns and my first training sesions used Weihrauch pellets ,then ordered two tins of these .To the naked eye one could see that they were badly finished , the tails uneven and on a regular basis some wouldn't fit the barrel without a struggle . I am upgrading my gun soon and will use these up practising ,I won't buy them again because my freind who has more experience just laughed when he saw them .

Have found pellets are not a good fit in barrel They are to loose and fall out although being the correct size on container and company do not want to exchange them because I opened them.

Tryed the pellets on pine 1\4" pine at 30 mtrs: went straight through no prblem: But15.5 grain pellets do so also::

Took ages to recieve them. When I got them it wasn't worth the wait. A lot of the skirts were damaged,a fair few were misformed. I may have received a rogue tin to be fair but I was unimpressed with the quality and accuracy of pellets

Very good

magnum pellets of good repute and very accurate

Pretty much garbage....at least for my R10. Fired about 40 - 50 of these then binned them!
