The .177 Destroyers did not shoot to well for me at any distance; glad the .22's are fairing a better, maybe Crosman has a winner here.  How about pushing them on out in 5-meter incriments.  At 25-yards my .177 groups start to open up, but if memory serves I was holding 2 - 2.5" groups with Crosman Premier Lights... never cared for the hollow points when target shooting... actually I don't care for them at all.   :)

I'm okay with the hollow points for target shooting....I know they could be better.  I will shoot some of the Destroyer 22's at targets but will want to keep some/most for pest control I guess.  I may have missed the comment, but what gun are you shooting?  I'm shooting my 2240.  Also what would you suggest as the best target shooting pellet for a 2240.

it depends on what the gun likes and the shooter
jsb pellets seem to do good in most guns
try some jsb's or rws hobby's and meisterkugeln

I did a Bing search on, "Was zur Hölle sind sie?"
Knew it was German and now I know somewhat it means.

It's "What the hell are they?".....was referring to his use of "meisterkugeln"

Babelfish translates meisterkugeln as "master balls."

Well I've only shot around 25 rounds so far (with a cartridge replacement necessary a few shots into that number) and I have to say I'm not all that impressed so far by these 22 destroyers.   Some spot on and others seem to have a mind of their own as to where they want to go....will be shooting some more today and tomorrow and see if I can have kinder things to say.  At this point the hollow points are better accuracy wise.
