The pellet thread!

[Weevie]

Sorry to piss on your chips but what one person thinks is acceptable performance is another person's 'shotgun grouping'.

You need ranges and group size to make this meaningful.

If you do that though it will be very useful!

Dont worry, I like soggy chips

I just thought that it would give people a rough Idea as to what might work well in their rifle.

Lighten up Weevie. Where does it say 'ballistically sound scientific proof must be provided'.
It is only meant as a rough guide and might help ease the old "what pellet for this gun" question that comes up 5 times a week to which there is only one answer.
Let the lad have some fun and learn something to everyones benefit .

like the guy said right at the start - it's just meant to narrow the choice a bit

Brilliant idea !

See...I told you so.

What does 'like' mean?

What groups are you getting at what ranges?

This thread is meaningless without some frame of reference.
