migmog 1 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 I would mate, they've got to be the dirtiest pellets I've used Kyle Good point! I always get busted by the missis for picking my snozzer after a days shooting, they leave loads of residue round my nose so i cant even deny the fact. Now i use super domes there miles cleaner. Just thinking about it, whats it got to do with her what i sit picking all day anyway ??? Women, who needs them when you have a gun cabinet full of rifles anyway ? Think its a trip to the solicitors for me today !! ;) Quote Link to post

Edgar 1 Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 Back to the accupells they are dirty but I have never washed them. They group under an inch at 25 yards with open sights and 30 with the scope so I'm happy. Will try washing though to see what if any improvment there is. Quote Link to post

The HFT guys tend to wash there pellets but im not sure exactly why but it must make some kind of diference. Pellet geeks kind of spring's to mind but im not going down the old geek route this week Quote Link to post

Pellet geeks kind of spring's to mind but im not going down the old geek route this week washing them gets the lead bits off them that arnt supposed to be there, so all thats left is the pellet that was made in the moulds, so they should all be very close to eachother and it does improve accuracy slightly, its mainly for air rifles benefit why i clean mine, all that excess lead falling off down the barrel doesnt seem good to me. i suppose the better accuracy is a bonus. atb ian Quote Link to post
