Doubt you'll find any difference in terms of point of aim.

Like Air Arms Field / AA Tru Hunter, one is just the pointy version of the domed jobby.

A quid a can more for the pointy ones if that matters to ya. LOL

Accupells are domed, Powapells are pointed, they fly differently, you would be very well advised to re check your zero!

May not be much difference in some, but all guns, powers and twist rates effect the flight, so does the pellet shape. Mine is running at 26ft lb and AA Field and AA Hunter fly about 4 inches different at 40 yards zero! Dome arrives with more thump, pointed arrives with more penetration! You will also tend to find you get slightly tighter groups with domed!
