SteveieP 0 Posted October 28, 2008 Report Share Posted October 28, 2008 Predictable results with pellets of the same weight. Pointy one's penetrate more & deform less & are a tad less accurate. But then, I think we all knew that. Quote Link to post

But then, I think we all knew that. Always fun to try with these things but I have to agree with the above. I've also tried a few tests into phone books and it is very difficult to do it scientifically as a spine one side and open the other, also every shot opens the pages a bit, anyway......!!
