The pellets of lead are too soft and the own(proper) pressure of a calibre can alter the measure of the pellets. Specially the skirt

What I use is a Pocket Thickness Gauge that produces a very small pressure of contact on having measured and the more important:…Read more

Yes, I agree. But also from de human activity of burning petrol in engines .

Any way I dont think that the CO2 that is used in air weapons is bad enogouh for the enviroment. Is very little.

The calculation is simple:
I have a bottle of 0.5 liters pressurized to 200 bar that is about 100 litres of compressed air inside the tank.

Start with little feed and observes the result on the cut surface, also the vibrations and sound of the motor.
The depth of cut and the hardness of the material are also of first importance
