Or is it the coolness factor, like gamo PBA? Just so you can have bragging rights even though there is no practical purpose?   Posted: Wed Aug 20, 2008 3:55 pm Rogerflat Silver Status Member Joined: 03 Jan 2008 Posts: 2051 It's a novelty. Not an effective hunting or target pellet. Who knows how much it would effect accuracy, especially at close range. Probably depends on how straight you attached them. I might go pick up a tin of percussion caps and super glue next time I'm out and try it. Maybe glue it to some crowmags and use my Hammerli .22. _________________ I done been assisted by the trees and rivers.

Dried fulminated mercury on the tip would do it. As for those I don't know if they're a commerical pellet or not. haven't seen them anywhere else. _________________ "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

I'm not gonna risk jacking up my barrel. _________________ I done been assisted by the trees and rivers.
