    What scales are they, ? you need some that are 10g x 0.001g, then when you weigh in grains you will get readings within 0.02 of a grain. (Some will read 0.01grains) just depends on the readability.

    That would depend on how far you want to shoot, if shooting at long distances then a high BC would be favoured. Shooting at short distances it would not matter.

    Pellet Weights - Milbro Select

    Can anyone tell me where to find the weight of the .177 in grains? I have found the .22 on the net, but the .177 data is "full Camo Mode" and I cannot find it. Any advice? apart from buy some more pellets with the weights on!
    I eagerly await.

    Hi guys...sorry to revive and old thread but I think there is possibly a mistake in the list and I wondered if anyone could confirm this as it's one of the pellets I use. This is about a couple of the Crossman 22 pellets. As far as I am aware the Crossman Premier is the same pellet as the Crossman Accupel but renamed and in a new package.

    They are both 14.3 grain and both dome heads and as I say, everywhere it states they are the same pellet. The premier has a much lower BC in this list...0.019 whereas the Accupel is listed as 0.026.

    To be honest a 14.3 grain dome head should have a BC around 0.026...If you look at a Premier pellet in Chairgun pro with a BC of 0.019 it behaves nothing like any similar weighted dome head I've ever seen. A BC of 0.019 for that weight of dome head is just too low. That reading is more like an 10 grain 177 pellet.

    Can anyone clear this up??? As I say I use the Premier for hunting and would like to be able to get an accurate plot in Chairgun.

    Cheers Guys...
