   Hi Kruza that is some damage to the pellet head.
All rather interesting.

On mine the pellets go through the main barrel with the weight of a cleaning rod.The choke section definitely needs assistance but I did not have much luck finding any measurable difference in head size, the tail flare was always damaged pushing it through.
No discernible deformation on RWS pellets I was using but I could see slight markings from the rifling groves.

AI search came up with a choke option of 20 thou and very difficult to find manufacturers reference.

James from All About Airguns, fires a pellet into a large bucket of water then inspects. The metal loss or deformation through the choke was quite significant.
