pellet weights for chronoing

[Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701]

Hey guys just picked up some bisley magnums .177 and some H&N FTT .177 but theres no weight on the tins.. i dont have any 'pellet scales' to weigh them so does anybody know their average weight straight out of the tin?

 

Also where can i get some scales and a measuring tool thingy mabob to measure weight accurately in gr and their head size to 2 decimal places eg. 4.53mm + 8.44gr .. cheap as possible please.

 

thanks for the help lads

gone up by £2 since I bought em but cheap anyhoo and do the job nicely.

just didnt know how accurate the chairgun databases actually are same with the pinned thread.

 

ultimately tho its best to weigh say 10 pellets yourself and make sure there all same exact weight and head size for the most accurate chrono results.

 

cheers tho guys il have a look.

end of the day what ever it sais on the tin..it'll varey batch to batch.. get the scales then you'll know, you want a calibraiting weight with it though, and at least to 1 though of a gram.

Thats why i asked.. because it doesent say the weight on the tins lol

[Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701]

ok so got jsb 8.44gr ftt 8.66gr and bisley magnums have 3 weights apparently. 10.48 10.75 and 10.78 . i think i have the 4.50 thats what the sticker under the tin says so im going to try 10.48 and 10.78 on my chrono just to make sure.

 

not washed or lubed just straight out of the tin.

[Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701]

well deffo under the limit hope it doesnt creep up too much tho might have to keep my eye on it.

 

also the bisley magnums fly slower and dont hit as hard apparently, thought it would be other way round

[ghillies 209]

its all fly in the pie matey...how could yuo posably really know? unless you weigh them and chrono them, some pellets really are shit in one gun then brill through another.
