a matchstick makes a good pellet seating tool re the micrometer, anything that will give you 2 decimal places in metric is probably good enough, anything more accurate than that is wasted due to the natural variations in pellet sizes and diameters. Personally I tend to favour a vernier gauge rather than micrometer, it's easier to handle.

A cotton bud with the bud cut off is ideal.
But if you want to be posh, a brass one is sold on the auction site every now and then for about £4.
They said buy it now - and I did.

I've got three pellet seating tools that I've accumulated over the years. The magazine freebie that's vaguely luminous plastic, a small plastic thingy from Gareth W-B and finally, the daddy of pellet seating tools The Beeman Pell Seat.

Fabricatum diem, pvnc!
The best pellet seating tool is a brass bolt or machine screw, with two nuts on. The diameter of the threaded part of the bolt needs to be around 4mm in diameter. You need to file the end of the threaded part into a truncated cone, then put on the two nuts and knit them up against each other to set the depth needed to seat the pellet.
It's adjustable, cheap, made of the right material and does the job perfectly.
Thanks very much -- interesting.
