Title: Hevi Snowman Pellets
Post by: TnTurk on February 13, 2012, 03:29:36 PM
Just curious, when counting the pellet holes on your paper, do you count the noticeable snowman shaped holes on the paper as one or two pellets?

Two if it looks like an 8. One if it looks like a ice cream cone.

The various pellets in the string go through the paper at different times if you will, so some will look like figure 8s where two pellets nearly went through the same hole.  Hevi does have odd shaped pellets, but IME not many are snowman shaped for one given payload with most lots.  Some lots are worse than others.

What I found best is to get yourself some cardboard. The pellets will put nice clean holes in the board and it is easier to see and count the holes.
