Best Air Gun Pellets of 2026

"I've found these cartridges to be extremely reliable for my air pistols and rifles. Every one I've used has sealed perfectly with no leaks, and the pressure is always consistent. The 40-count box is both convenient and cost-effective—I plan to keep buying these."

"These CO₂ cylinders fit and work exactly as expected with my gear. Since they're from Crosman, I knew they'd be dependable and perform well."

"I like that you get a lot of cartridges in one pack, and they last a good while with my Umarex G19X. The power is impressive too."

"I've used plenty of pellets, but these stand out for their remarkable precision and deep penetration. They fit my rifle perfectly and deliver top-tier results for both accuracy and value. Highly recommended!"

"Switching to these pellets has made a real difference—no need to constantly re-zero my air gun. Out of all the ammo brands I tested, this one provided the best performance, highest accuracy, and excellent stopping power for small game."

"While I was skeptical about hunting with air rifles, these pellets completely changed my perspective. Their impressive stability and clean penetration made it possible to hunt dove at close range, something I couldn't achieve with any other ammo."

"I decided to give these pellets a top rating because the build quality is excellent. Even though none of the four types shot well from my Hatsan break barrel, they might perform better in a different air rifle. Every gun is different, so it’s worth testing them with your own setup."

"After switching to these BBs for my Daisy Red Rider, I've noticed way more accuracy and tighter groupings compared to the standard brass BBs. Now, I only use the Daisy Match Grade BBs for shooting across the yard, and they never disappoint!"

"I tried these in my 450fps CO2 Daisy handgun and was impressed by the quarter-sized clusters at 25 feet. The BBs feel almost perfectly round and just seem to fly straighter. They're a little more expensive, but the quality and precision are worth it."

"I got this as a gift for my 58-year-old brother, and it was a huge hit! It’s just like the classic 'A Christmas Story' model—the authenticity and nostalgia made it the best present ever."

"I've been using these Crosman .22 pellets for a while now, and they always deliver reliable accuracy and solid power, whether I'm doing pest control, target shooting, or just plinking in the backyard. The fit in the barrel is snug, and I never have issues with jams. They're a dependable, no-frills choice for everyday shooting—I'd definitely buy them again."

"These Crosman Premier hollow points are a mainstay in my shooting kit. Uniform quality, excellent consistency, and tight groupings are what keep me coming back. They offer impressive knockdown power on small game, and the 500-count tin is a fantastic value. For both target shooting and pest control, they're reliable, affordable, and hard-hitting."

"I use these pellets with my Crosman P1322 pistol and am very pleased. Accuracy is great up to 25 yards, and the screw-lid tin keeps the pellets in perfect shape. My grandson and I have a blast plinking cans, and at just over a penny a shot, it's a fun and inexpensive way to practice marksmanship. I appreciate how well these pellets perform and will keep buying them."

"I found these pellets to be very accurate and reliable, easily fitting in my Daisy 880. At first, I struggled to open the tin, but once I realized you just unscrew the lid, it was much easier. They're longer than wadcutters, but work perfectly for my needs."

"We picked up these pellets for our air rifle to dispatch meat rabbits since we can't use our .22 inside city limits. After using them on 10 rabbits, they performed flawlessly every time."

"The overall quality and price of these pellets meet my expectations. My only complaint is the tin isn't easy to open, especially compared to other brands. However, the pellets themselves are well-protected, not deformed, and ready to use right out of the package."

"I really like how accurate and powerful these pellets are. Once I adjusted my scope, I was consistently hitting the same spot—almost like the shots were going through the same hole. They work great for dealing with nuisance rodents around my property. I’ve tried other types, but these definitely stand out."

"These pellets are very solid and maintain a straight flight path. I use them in my 22 cal. break barrel and have no trouble taking down small game or rodents. They load easily and perform well up to 30 yards. I just wish there were options for larger calibers."

"I tried these for hunting ammo and was impressed by the accuracy—no flyers in about 30 shots. Just a heads-up, though: they’re longer than standard pellets and won’t fit in some magazines, so a single-shot tray is a must. Otherwise, I’m pleased with their performance."

"I've tried these pellets in all four of my .177 guns and they never jam—they shoot true every time. For the price, they're a steal and remarkably accurate."

"I use these in both my .177 pistol and break-barrel rifle, and the velocity and accuracy easily beat most other pellets I've used. They're slightly smaller and easy to load, and I haven't had a single issue with misfires or defects. My only gripe is that the tin is hard to open, but that's a minor inconvenience for such good performance."

"The design is unique—they act like both a hollow point and a pointed pellet, which means they hit hard and penetrate well. They're great for hunting and plinking, though a bit light for long-range shots. I definitely recommend them for their versatility."

"I picked up this pellet variety pack for my .22 caliber air rifle, and I’ve been really impressed by the accuracy, design, and overall quality. The pack includes a nice assortment that’s great for both target shooting and hunting. Plus, you get a ton of pellets for the price, which makes it a fantastic deal. I’ve noticed my scope stays zeroed, and I’d definitely recommend this to others."

"For under $20, I got almost 1,000 rounds for my new Gamo air rifle. The price is unbeatable for the amount of fun and shooting you get. Sure, a few pellets were a bit deformed, but it didn’t really affect my results much, and most of the ammo worked just fine. Grouping was within a tennis ball at 35 yards, which is more than reasonable at this price point. Overall, I’m happy with the purchase and think it’s a solid deal for casual shooters."

"This variety pack is a fantastic buy for anyone wanting to try different pellet types. The hunters and magnums are standouts for me, giving me tight, reliable groups out of my Gamo Swarm. Even though one type (TS-22) didn’t perform as well in my rifle, the rest more than made up for it. Great quality, great price, and plenty of ammo—can’t go wrong!"

"I've run these pellets through my old, beat-up Crosman air gun and had zero issues with feeding or accuracy. They're perfect for pest control and small game, and the price really can't be beat. This is my go-to choice every time."

"For the price, these pellets offer great quality and performance at short range. However, I've noticed that at distances over 30 yards, the groupings can become inconsistent. Still, for most of my plinking and target practice, they're a solid buy and I've ordered them several times."

"These Crosman pellets are super accurate with reliable penetration and expansion, making them a favorite for both plinking and hunting. While they may not hit as hard as hollowpoints, for head shots and sub 1/4 inch groupings, they're fantastic. Crosman always delivers on pellet quality."
