Oh come on Deco, I am a German gate snob and I have bunches of Crosman tins on hand. I haven’t bought any in a long time because all the locals price them like JSBs.
They shoot ok in my HWs, but it depends more what you are trying to do with them.
Punching dots in the basement in perfect conditions, no, they do not compare to most of the more expensive ammo available. Accurate enough for pesting? Under 25 for me would be ok, if you can accept the wild fliers every so often.
I don't get to shoot at longer ranges or as often asyou, so the savings does not pay off for me. I would rather spend a little more and greatly reduce the frequency of the fliers.
I have 5 inexpensive Walther barreled guns. 4 Crosmans and a Daisy. The difference between CPHP and AA or H&N is too much for me.
I do shoot CPHP in my Crosman barreled guns. They are a good match for those because the Crosman barrels that I have do not shoot anything good, at least to my Walther skewed perception.
I am going to try them in my stock Prod and see if that barrel likes them. I hope it does, but so far Meister wadcutters are what work best.
For plinking, CPHP are fine. I do want to try some domes, but I have never seen any local.
