Dirty .20 Pellets

[MMA player]

Missed a couple of sitter squizzers this morning...and I mean sitters.

Checked all the usual suspects, tried to bench zero it, spaying all over the place.

Now this .20 barrel will only shoot jsbs, h/n and crosman are a no go
now we all know crosmans are a dirty pellet, but the crap

that came out the barrel with the jsbs was phoenomenal..think I put about 200 down it since last clean.

I think the faster you run them the quicker they lead up...but this was a surprise with the JSBs...

Back on song now 20 pull throughs later

What speed are you running them at mate??

I have always clean my pellets when after I buy them.....

Using a water tight plastic container. Put the pellet in
Add enough water to cover the pellets, then a couple of drop of Dawn dishwashing soap.
Swirl it around for a little bit.
The drain it and rinse..
Pour the clean pellets out onto a couple of paper towels, let air dry.
Then before you use them, add you preferred oil on them...If you want to...

The old bulk boxed .20 Premiers were always very dirty, alot of lead flakes from the molding process

Are you aware that JSB are having big problems with there ammo in the past 3 months.
The weight is not consistent now and many are saying the quality has dropped.
A lot of  links are being removed regarding this problem off the net but you can type in google and find out more info.

I was talking to a European supplier last yeat in my hunt for particular dies of  Jumbo .22 18gr and he reckoned shooters at competitive level constantly had issues with dies and QC.
As he and others saw it JSB sold so much as a whole they were unlikely to do anything about it.

Personally I found AADF to be a really dirty pellet, both in the tin and the barrel. Not to forget the 7-10% damages.
This was a brand new LW after 150 shots, top clean, bottom full of lead flakes

I've had problems with kaiser.20 , I couldn't hit the barn door if sat on the latch , with a new tin just opened, like shooting a 12 gauge , they were a very dull grey colour, I lubed them up  , seemed to be grouping aolt better

Yes... I've had jsb fouling my. 20 too...... Here's a comparison I did the other night

Forgot to say.... 2 mags (12 shot) on each group, 25 yards.
