Fie on Pellet Samplers!

[Rover]

In my wanderings, I have seen folks bemoaning the fact that they could not find Pellet Samplers for testing purposes.

I admit that I don't much care. Reason? Not a lot of point in testing, but if you do, three or so different pellets should be enough
to find an accurate "load."

If figure that if they're fooling around with this, they're not Olympic shooters anyway.

Snarky comments welcome, but remember that we're discussing "Pellet Samplers."

True. The Olympic shooters probably have someone test the ammo for them…

Not to be confused with the kind of sampler Rover & I can both heartily approve of.

PuH-Llleeeasssssssse! Are you kidding?

The winner of the Olympic Marathon Trial won $80,000!

Do you know what the winner of Men's AP Olympic Trial won at Ft. Benning? A PAIR OF PELTOR EAR MUFFS!!! No b.s. Earmuffs . . . .

(. . . and don't get me started on what the "Break Dancers" are gonna get paid going into Paris '24.)

Snarky comments welcome . . . .

. . . . second place got a trip to Tokyo & a T-shirt (literally), the rest of the field won an MRE & PAID bus fare home, & if you didn't make the Final and were sitting in the bleachers next to me - we missed lunch & had to hitch-hike home.

I did purchase a pellet sampler someplace many years ago.

I never had time to make a stable rest to do any proper testing, so they are pretty much untouched. Once I discovered RWS Basics, I've never worried about it.

I looked online, and couldn't find any mention of this one. There are others out there, but they aren't target pellets:
