One inch groups at 25 yards.

I purchased these with one intention: pest control. They work admirably.The weight has been consistent on every one I weighed, and though the tin itself was slightly damaged, every pellet I've loaded was fine. They are a tight fit in my Hatsan 95QE. I have to use the cap of a Bic pen to seat these all the way inside the leade. However, even when I am lazy and do not properly seat them, they are quite accurate. Indeed, the second-most-accurate pellet I've found, in part because of the incredible consistency.The finish is what you would expect from pricey hunting pellets: top-notch. None of the red inserts were off center and the tin itself did not have any shavings or other debris. The tin itself has just a push-on lid, so if you are inclined to keep the tin in your pocket when hunting, just be aware of this.When it comes to the effect on pests, nothing comes close to these, not even my H&N Barracuda Extremes (which are a softer lead). The polymer tip drills into the prey and the pellet head expands sufficiently to ensure a clean kill, even from a medium-powered springer like my 95QE. I am quite happy with these and will be buying more in the future for my pest-control needs.

These pricey Predator Polymag .25-Cal pellets do pack the punch of better than 37-38 fpe's of power, but with continued use I have again returned to my staples: Benjamin 27-grain Domed and Hollow Point pellets, plus Eun-Jin 43-grains for a deadly, no-questions-asked kill shots at virtually any distance up to 75-yards or so. The Marauder 25 also has a liking for a couple others, namely the Skenco "twins", the UltraSchock lightweight (23.5 grain) that "tumbles" into the target, ripping huge entrances and even bigger exits into anything you shoot at; and the Newboy Senior 31-grain pellets that combine accuracy with a heavy punch; then we have the JSB Diabolo Exact King's (can't forget these 25-grain wonders) for the best accuracy of the bunch I've listed here in this review. In short, the Marauder loves almost anything I put into the magazines, with certain firepower and ballistic tendencies of the various pellets it makes choosing a given pellet many possibilities for hunting, targeting, or plinking...Life is great at the top, is it not?I know this is supposed to be a review of the Predator Polymag pellets, but I just cannot help but to mention the huge assortment of pellets and types, shapes, with varying aerodynamics my Marauder 25 can handle with ease. It's just such a great bargain-basement rifle first-off at less than $500 delivered, and then it will shoot so many great pellets excellently without discrimination to think of really getting down to its most hallowed traits that there's no denying the Benjamin rifle its "best buy less than $500" title & tag that many nay-sayers fail to grasp. But as owners of the Marauder will surely agree, most find the rifle is literally polygamous in its taste for so many kinds, types of ammo, as I've just detailed.As for the Predator pellets supreme, these are tightly wound if I've ever seen a pellet be like that, seemingly each pellet is meticulously made with such great precision and form, shape being indistinguishable from another--that it's easy to see why they shoot so accurately, with incredible force dealt to the target. It is simply amazing to use a lens to check out a couple of these things, just a lighted magnifier does fine for this exercise, 2-4X in execution, as each pellet places the polymer red-pointed penetrator-piece in exactly the same manner in each pellet, for remarkable consistency in action, easily seen! The Polymag pellet penetrates just as much as it expands, given a tough target to go for, from targets backed up with telephone books, jugs or bottles of H20, or some poor small game animal that simply gets knocked down and out with a BAM...done, gone! These are indeed impressive pellets, but I could say the same about many of the others I listed also, as talk runs head to head on the descriptive comments I've read here and in other publications. There is no doubt the Polymag pellet ranks right up there with the best, but I simply wanted to point out that the many and varied selection of pellets the rifle *does* shoot with amazing, steadfast accuracy is huge...and that isn't going to change much as pellets evolve.I rated them 4 stars because to me there's no perfect match pellet in the 25-Caliber class, but certainly the Polymag rates right up there with the best of the best. I feel that a balanced assortment of these "best" pellets is the way to go for any hunting foray or targeting exercise, while plinking any number of objects that I can think of, from memory, can go down with a certain pellet being "just right" for XXX application for 90% of shooters of PCP rifles, pistols.Wavey Davey - 10-12-2013

I want you to know you have no idea what you are talking about! I am a mathematician; all the math and observations I have done regarding quality speed and accuracy are all on point like these pellets. Maybe you had a bad tin that happens from time to time. If you don't have a high quality rifle why buy high quality pellets? Like every one says, these pellets are extremely accurate in all Edguns and Benjamin's. I have all calibers and only use 2 pellets the pollymags and the JSB's. Both will kill just about anything less than 300 pounds if round is properly placed. Again these pellets are completely bad ass and anyone who says otherwise needs to buy a real PCP or nitro piston, and leave the springs behind. Spring rifles suck because the pellet does not leave the barrel before the recoil starts making these guns hard to hit anything beyond 20 yards however with a good NP or PCP air rifle you can use these pollymags to hit a dime at 100 yards and next time I go to the range I will video tape the results so there can be no more whining babies with cheap air guns saying these two types of pellets suck, BECAUSE THEY DONT!!! Your gun sucks and you don't know how to use it. If you did you would not be complaining, secondly the trigger and rifle need to be set to the specifics of the shooter, often you will need to tweak the rifle before you start stating things suck. I hate people who just post on a one time whim. Just to clarify I own all 3 calibers in the Benjamin Marauders a .25 Benjamin trail XP and a .22 Benjamin trail along with a .22 .177 big cats. The big cats I will not shoot at anything farther than 30 yards the NP's I won't shoot at anything past 50 yards however my Edguns .22 & .25 I will shoot past 150 yards and my Benjamin's will do the same. Take my advice and upgrade to a PCP. If you are too poor buy the NP's they are better than springs, but before you get mad and say they suck through 200 or 300 rounds through them first, basically learn how to shoot before you try to say they suck because it's not them it's you.Look here's the deal I have these pellets for all three of my rifles. .177 .22 and ,25 new. All three where broke in with cheap pellets and had good results. Heard over the grape vine about these red tipped pellets, so i bought a ten of .22's and they killed everything with one shot. The 25 will take down 25 pound racoons and bigger I'm sure. I have 10 cans a peace for each of my rifles and will never go back. JSB aren't as good as these in my rifles but I know how to get a pellet to fire in a rifle that does not like them with dime size groups its all about the trigger and how you hold every different gun. o yeah the 22 will knock a squirrel out of the tree done it many times.
