About this deal

Not really, I’ve got one somewhere, tbo I found it helped considerably less helpful than washing, drying and lubing pellets (a different time wasting story. Some words from the product’s first user: “ A great product. Very light. The UK Neil sizer slides into the ink well holder for a perfectly snug fit. Enables speedy sizing and any pellets dropped fall onto the top of the well. This stops the odd dropped pellet falling into your sized pellets by mistake. Perfect.“ As the test results show (see below), there was good accuracy all round, but there was an increase in group size when using non- identical weights. At 25 yards, you might not really notice it, but at 30-40 yards this could be the difference between a hit or a miss. If you’ve ever shot competitively or know someone that’s shot competitively, then you know that ammo selection is extremely important. Ask any .22LR benchrest shooter, and they’ll be able to tell you the exact ammo batch that performs best in their competition rifle. Do airgunners need this kind of attention to detail? You better believe it. Where Does Airgun Accuracy Come From?

An alternative heavy pellet would be the Eun Jin pellet that weighs 28 grains. But I think even that is too heavy for the power of a Talon SS unless you use the optional 24-inch barrel. Then the rifle will get the heavy pellet up to speed for best accuracy. Pellet collector for pellet sizers. Please note that the pellet sizer is NOT included, it has to be bought separately from UK Neil or other manufacturers. The two main sizes of pellet are .177 (4.5mm) or .22 (5.5mm). The legal limit in the UK for power on air guns is 12ft/lbs for rifles and 6ft/lbs for pistols, and due to the way the law works smaller pellets have to fly faster to meet this limit. This means that .177 pellets achieve much higher velocities than .22 pellets and as such provide flatter trajectories for increased accuracy. Pellets in the .22 calibre fly with more of a looped trajectory, and so they may require slight elevation adjustments, especially at range.

the pellet could be placed in exactly the same angle every time and the pressure curve applied in exactly the same way every time.

Use the same method as for washing the airgun pellets but this time add a small amount of lubricant. There are many pellet lubricants on the market. I use two types: Napier and Daystate. The Napier comes as a liquid and a spray while the Daystate is spray only. Two drops of lubricant is all you need but because a .177 has a different surface area from a .20, .22 or .25 pellet you will need to experiment a bit to get it right. The majority of my pellets were in the 4.54 head size with 4.53 and 4.55 being on the outer fringes for a .01 mm plus or minus for the 400 count tin which I thought was pretty tight tolerence. You don't want "a" sizer as you don't know which size your gun likes the pellets sized to, so get a set, something like these: https://www.jsramsbottom.com/guntuf...4-50-4-51-4-52-4-53-5-50-5-51-5-52-5-53-.html The shape of the pellet is almost as important as the size, and there are lots of different styles of pellet available that all perform vary different roles. Choosing the correct style of pellet can effect drastically improve the effectiveness of your shooting. Flathead or Wadcutter A varied selection of pellets, in different sizesThese are some of the cheapest pellets that money can. But don’t let that put you off, these practice pellets are made to a great standard and feature a classic wadcutter shape to cut clean holes in a paper target, allowing you to see exactly where you have shot. For this reason I think the Bisley practice pellets make a great choice for zeroing scopes in at short range and, well, practising. Mitch, I think that pellet sizer that Ted used was a custom made job from a personal friend of his?

This month, we take a look a closer look at airgun pellets. If you’re pondering pellet selection, whether it’s target shooting or hunting on your airgun or air pistol, this is the post to help you choose the right buy….. The correct airgun pellet selection is essential to a good day’s shooting Pellet Size I get your sentiment, and for 95% of shooters your right, but if you get involved with BR or some other comps where just a mm is all the difference in scoring then tiny changes make a big difference to the scorecards. You can grade the extra loose or tighter ones in batches and keep the best for the more serious shooting.

MK4 – Further improvements to resolve all issues of the original design. Re-designed internal parts, spring tension can be fine-tuned with a hex key, free travel length of the probe doubled. It's important to know that due to state and local laws, there are certain restrictions for various products.

On the old forum I did a review of the TR Robb pellet sizer, complete with results shooting sized and unsized pellets. In summary, what I found was the sizer improved the performance of some pellets which were not particularly good performers when unsized. It made no discernable difference to batches which performed well unsized. We have a team of expert technicians and a complete repair shop that are able to service a large variety of brands/models of airguns. As someone on this tread says , weight/ wash and lube your time would be better spent on as time consuming as that is. It's been a while since I've looked into pellet sizing properly but when I have in the past it seemed 50/50 whether it made a difference and I've struggled to find anyone able to actually quantify the difference & remove placebo from the equation.These pellets are designed for practice and target shooting and are so shaped to cut clean holes in the target for accurate scoring. The pellets are usually cheap and are available from many different brands. The downside of this shape is that they are less aerodynamic than some of the other types available and will start to tumble at long range. Also thanks to their flat headed shape they are not good for penetration and so not suitable for pest control at all. Domed Get your rifle into a true level with these adjustable bubble level bases: you can fine tune its angle and eliminate canting effects. With this, you can close the loading port by rotating the handle easily by the two rounded ends, instead of pushing it down with a quite big force.
