Well I'm glad it's not my rose tinted glasses making me think that some of these older pellet types were as good as i remember them.

I have little idea about what pellet making involves with regard to tooling so I can't comment on how feasible it might be to replicate them. From a fairly non technical standpoint though you hear of scanners linked to multi axis cutters so it would seem possible to generate some form or other of tooling reasonably straightforwardly. I dont see why dimensional consistency shouldn't be extreemly good either. No idea what form the tooling would normally take, for instance are they single cavity tools or in banks of multiple tools. Either way I'd like to think it was possible.
An elemental analysis of a few samples of original pellets would give the composition of the lead 'alloy' if its not already spec'd somewhere and a hardness value too should help with sourcing the correct grade of raw material.


Anybody know someone in the pellet making industry ?

So, is it possible or feasible now due to innovation and changes in manufacturing processes, things that were not around a while back?
