Due to their aeroballistic properties combined with the rifling on most barrels, pellets tend to be very gyroscopically overstable and hence are very susceptable to anything which affects the way they leave the barrel. A magazine will inevitably introduce another source of error making the pellet less of an exact fit. The effect may be very small but due to the pellets aerodynamic properties it has the effect you noticed.<br />The gyroscopic overstability will also have the effect of making a pellet fly high or low in a crosswind, depending on the direction, something I know some gunners have noticed.<br />MilesMiles Morrisnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205987449820979385.post-85789785906047813982011-06-26T13:33:29.581+01:002011-06-26T13:33:29.581+01:00Thank God that at last we have Nigel given us crit...Thank God that at last we have Nigel given us critical reviews rather than praising everything like most of the other airgun magazines!
