JSB pellet size question
I’ve decided to feed my AA410 JSB’s only for the rest of it’s life.
JSB Jumbo’s come in these sizes 5.50 5.51 5.52. I read somewhere that you should only shoot 5.50 in new guns and then after 50,000 shots switch to 5.51 then after another 50,000 shot switch to 5.52. BAsically the person was saying that the barrels wear out. I don’t know if this statement was hog wash or not.
Most people seem to talk about the 5.52 alot and you don;t hear much about the other sizes. Anyone do any experimenting with these diffrent sizes ?

Personally I wouldnt mess with it unless the ones you have arent grouping well.
All of them Ive got are labeled 5.52, and they all shoot extrememly well in all my rifles.
Most pellets that dont shoot well for me are smaller diameter than the JSBs, so I wont be going in that direction.
JMO 😉
Then you can test for yourself. .
Y a I guess that would probally be the best. Best to be the judge myself .
Thanks
Straight Shooters may be willing to sell you a hand full of each.
Or buy a box of each and sell what your rifle doesn’t find the best.
It’s going take some time shoot 50K rounds !! That’s like to 100
boxes (500 rounds per).
Then you can test for yourself. Bet that different rifles like differents sizes.
SO your suggesting shooting 5.50’s to start ?
Let us know what kind of accuracy you’re getting after the first 50,000 shots and we’ll take it from there.

I shoot 4.52’s out of my .177 S410 and they shot the best from day one.
