WTB: .177 pellet gauge

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I reckon I need a pellet gauge gadget (.177).
New tin, new batch number of H&N FTT.
Normally shoot OK, but with the latest lot I'm now getting a few fliers and a different 'floof' as the gun fires.
You can hear the difference in the shot, and you are rewarded with a 9, not the 10 you wanted.
I do wash, dry lube, inspect skirt, and weigh pellets but this latest lot of H&N aren't doing me any good.
The odd pellet just slips into the breech...and doesn't shoot 'right'.
The pellets that take a wee thumb push to seat them all shoot OK.
Any pellet gauge for sale on here please?
Thanks.

	Try a barrel clean before you spend money on a pellet guage. usually works for me when pellets start misbehaving. Or maybe its just my rifle playing up for some attention ;-)
	Walk quietly, but carry a big stick.
