RWS R10 Match pellets - rifle vs. pistol

Post by Walnut92 »

I have a LOT of RWS R10 match pellets for pistol use.

Having just acquired a LGR, I'm testing it at 10m using the 'pistol' pellets.

I appreciate the rifle pellets are slightly heavier (0.53g vs. 0.43g), but/and should I use these instead of the pistol ones before getting too far 'set up' with my rifle?

I haven't got any heavier wadcutters to try.

My springer rifle clearly prefers heavier pellets, but those are domed so not useful here.

Pellet weight makes NO difference. Only testing of different lots will answer your question.
