The AA pellets are made by JSB but with AA’s own tooling and lead. That’s what i’m told by people who think they know.
Nevertheless the quality is very good and , most importantly , uniform and consistent.

FX pellets are good too although idk whether they have own tooling/lead or not. What i do know is they’re drier since that works better in the much debated ST barrel.

Thanks!

Yep!

Is it a select JSB pellets or do they make their own?

Ville, I always wait for you or sniperQty to try things first!

Ignorance plays a big part in his problem! He thinks if he pulls the trigger faster, the pellet should go faster. The slower the trigger pull, the slower the pellet!

Further, he really needs a chrony to obtain fps. Simple “eyeballing” the pellet will not give a true measurement of pellet speed…I don’t care if that’s how they did it back in his youth…times have changed!

Kind regards,

Hoot, I used to time the pellet with a stop watch. From the time I squeezed the trigger until I heard the pellet hit. Very reliable……

I prefer the method where I shoot the gun upward and start counting “Mississippi One …” until the pellet falls and hit me at the head!
After that you could use that time you counted and solve the 4th level partial differential equations accounting for forces of gravity, drag, and stupidity and get the exact answer. Have not tried it with a 25gr pellets though!

Awny

Try it ! You’ll like it.

Yep!

Air Arms 16 gr. The best pellet for my Vulcan, hands down.

Ville, Do you think the 25 cal Air Arms would outperform the JSB too?

Noooo – here we use my dumb neighbour ( Hoots prodigal cousin Haakon ) to measure the fpe. We shoot him in the ass and check how deep the pellet sinks into the lard. Distance we use is 25 m.

Yep! Those are very popular among the Bullpup crowd. Good scopes !

Sorry Benj, I REALLY hated to sell that scope. I LOVED IT!!!! But I just couldn’t get it to adjust to my eye…… GOD I loved that scope………Oak will love it….

Ok. I thought that would be a cheaper option for you.

quote Sir Ville:

Yep ! BTW – contact Zonkster about a Connect.

He contacted me and another. He contacted the other person first and he took it. Now waiting on our deal. I did tell him about our deal and I’d have to check with you first to see if it was still happening. Don’t want to leave anyone on the hook or inconvenience them. Also an agreement is just that an agreement.

So now the waiting.
