Author: RangerPete Subject: Reusing pellets...? Posted: 26 Apr 2024 at 6:16pm So in my quest for the ultimate sparrow set up, I'm currently setting up a .25cal at 2.8FPE...  Preliminary testing is promising, but I have yet to test "out in the field" so to speak. A 25.4gr .25cal pellet at 221fps (2.8FPE) should knock the snot out of any sparrow. The only problem is, you guessed it, at 221fps its shooting fricken rainbows. You could probably throw the pellet further then its shooting! Shooting at close range (through a scope) is tricky enough as it is, at 5 yards your pellet has only just ..read more
