Napier power pellet lube

In the real world if 100 people reply to this you will probably get 100 different replies. From my understanding once the pellet has travelled more than its own length into the rifling, any effect of ‘lubrication’ has ended as the lead is effectively swaged into the bore. 

That said I firmly believe that if you are using a magazine fed PCP then anything that can help get the pellet aligned concentrically with the bore is worth using and to that end I do very lightly lube my pellets as my PCPs are all mag fed.

On my AA S200 I was advised to just lightly lube the rubber ring in the magazine with a molygrease(Abbey LT2) which they advised. Made one huge difference to the feed and I assume to pellet alignment. Gun shoots far more accurately than I can that's for certain.   I just take a cotton bud and lightly cover it with molylube and then coat the rubber ring inside the magazine.

A very light smear is all that was needed and I repeat about every 10 mags full.    The magpies don't appreciate it one little but.
