    Eley Ventus & Other 'Match' Pellets : Estimation of Pellet Weight Variance

    Hello to All,

    Following recent threads, I thought I would dig out some of the stats. I had gathered WRT weights of various pellets; Compliant with the Law Of Sod, I couldn't find them

    I arranged the loan of a four (4) decimal place lab. balance (Sartorius M-Power AZ124), and gathered the below informations.

    One hundred (100) pellets were selected at random from each 'tin', and weighed.

    (RSD = relative standard deviation = 100*standard deviation/average weight)

    The results, are I think, quite interesting.

    The Eley Ventus have an exceptionally low variance in weight - I will be very surprised if the new Eley Tenex pellets can improve on them !

    The RWS R10 Pistol & Qiang Yuan Match, also have very low variance.

    For some reason, I can't seem to insert images in the Target/Competition Shooting area - you can in other sections ????

    Have fun & a good Easter

    Best regards

    Russ
