neil Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 it is actually a good sign , it shows that you are following through (if you'll pardon the expression ) after the shot, the idea being if you can see this you are keeping still on the shot after the gun has been fired. It is easier in certain lighting conditions (i usually find fairly bright days with the sun low in the sky is good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy17 Posted March 16, 2004 Report Share Posted March 16, 2004 pellet loop is gonna happen over distance,the futher it travels the more it loses velocity and power the more is drops off.I can see the pellets hit a target when lamping but only occasionally see it leave the barrel,that could be down to low power which would mean the pellet is coming out slower the normal allowing you to see it?.What distance are you seeing the pellet drop at??something like bisley magnums are usually fairly loopy in sub 12ftIbs guns past 30yards due to ther weight either way the pellet will drop. yis andy.

The Jackal Posted March 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 i can see the pellet the last few feet b4 i hit the target i allways set my sights @ 30 metres, the rifle is an AAs410k fitted with 3-9-50 pro stalk scopes and using AA field pellets in 2.2 also had it chronographed and it is doing 11.7ftlbs.....the reason im asking this is that i probably never noticed this b4 thanks 4 all your help.....ray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookie Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 Morning! I used to be able to see the pellet leave and hit (the whole flight) when I was using Accupell. I put it down to their flat inside skirt that reflected the lamp back at me. It was weird though, looked a lot like stuff out of star wars...

bennyblanco Posted March 17, 2004 Report Share Posted March 17, 2004 alright jackal, i see them on my s410 aswell. as wookie says try some accupell, when lamping they look like tracer fire they are so shiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamebag Posted March 18, 2004 Report Share Posted March 18, 2004 i dont know if you can still get them but at 1 point you could get tracerpells they glowed in the dark & they were seriously good ok a little expensive and you had to give them a bit of light first to keep them charged up but at night when you let the ******* fly you could follow them no problems it was a real ****** if you missed though to see this green thing fly off in to the night like a proper tracer but at least they didnt set the undergrowth on fire like the real ******* do but they were great for following clearly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
