Perhaps for a very close shot they would work good,but for a distant shot they would not be my first choice.

I also have one that covers the entire shroud.

Can you recommend a .25 or .22 pellet with a solid bullet shape?

This was a exit shot at about 25 yards.Those are the front and backs of spent pellets after going through a empty tin,some cardboard boxes,a sheet of plywood,and then leaving a NICE size dent in a sheet of metal .
