Yeah, but only at supersonic velocity. Shape only becomes critical above the speed of sound. In pellet guns a hollow base that allows expansion under firing pressure is valuable.

This will give a longer string for a given velocity drop (though lower peak).

I’ve been meaning to bring this up. It seems to me that pellet position is a big deal since it could affect how the pellet seals to the bore at the instant it’s fired. But does it need be flush, or just consistent? I’m considering building a…Read more
