crosman premier boxed, vs CPHP

[454 Big Block Chevy]

looking for someone to post something on accuracy between the CPHP and the CP boxed.  .22 caliber preferred, but i'd interestingly read .177 as well.  i want to buy some, but 24 bucks for 600 pellets is rediculous, unless there wayyyy better than FTT's or JSB Exacts... which i doubt.

Using a AA S400 .22 cal shooting 5 groups of 5 shots each at 15, 30, 40, and 50 yards.

The CP 14.3gr in the box did better over all. The CPHP did better at 15 and 40 yards. The CP box did better at 30 and 50 yards.

15 yards; (in inches)
CP box - .19, .20, .24, .28, .60
CPHP - .20, .22, .25, .30, .45

30 yards; (in inches)
CP box - .29, .43, .54, .65, .85
CPHP - .30, .37, .43, .44, .51

40 yards; (in inches)
CP box - .77, .89, .1.03, 1.04, 1.13
CPHP - .51, .64, .83, 1.12, 1.28


50yards; (in inches)

CP box - .71, .88, .91, 1.01, 1.02,
CPHP - .97, 1.12, 1.40, 1.50, 1.53

Now remember these are not what the S400 likes best, that would be JSB 18.1gr.

The CPHP did a lot better in my .177 Talon SS than the CP box.

i have found that the boxed are not worth the extra money. i remember about 4 yrs ago they were 14 a box and they literaly went from that to 22 a box. i dont know how they can justify that price but i wont but wont give them a second look again. you might want to try the hn ftt pellets. they are super accurate out of all my guns and the only thing i use in my tx200
