is there a size mentioned on the 177 containers ??
No. I did not do head sizes once I determined that heads were smaller than skirt. It was part laziness/shortage of time. So the sizes mentioned are all skirt sizes

Well done kml - good grouping :D
With a little more practice you should get even tighter groups!

@bennedose,
Have seen multiple pellet review threads by you.
What pellets do you feel perform best with preciholes. Other than precipells and jsbs.
Lock, Stock and Barrel.

GSmith round head (high impact)
Diana Flat head were OK

I have settled on Precipell only.

Thanks for the reply bennedose. I too have settled on the precipells only. They worked beautifully with my NX.
JSBs 15gr ones are the next best bet but are five times as expensive.
Was looking for alternatives just for my info.

One more question, of the two memtioned by you, which one has more consistency over different production lots.
Lock, Stock and Barrel.
