Well... I looked at the examples shown in this thread, and with that... I'm somewhat disenfranchised. It still seems that the end user had to charge the cylinder and add the projectile. Very different from my OP question...

So... I'm guessing that despite steps toward this end... No one has successfully developed a plug, and play self contained airgun cartridge. Is that correct?

I love mine.

Hmmm... Do those loads arrive "plug, and play"? Or do you have to charge them, and load a projectile into them?

I mean pre packaged, precharged cartridges. Not necessarily relocated bottles that one has to mate to a projectile to make into a cartridge. Basically just like a firearm cartridge, only with compressed gas.

Not sure. But I'm certain other here could answer that.

Not sure. As in a completely self contained, off the shelf cartridge?

Not sure what introducing CO2 to the mix would do. Not sure it would prevent detonation from compression, which is what dieseling is. I had only mentioned it because that was the only supplemental propellant I know of that has been used in tandem with springers...

Interesting. Whatever became of the company/design?

I've seen folks intentionally diesel their springers by putting a drop of 3 in 1 oil in the pellet skirt...

Very cool, and innovative as it's namesake suggests. Though stepping back, and looking closer... It's a bit more like a bottle, that can be refilled, than it is a precharged, full on cartridge. I was thinking something more along the lines of an off the shelf, load, and shoot type cartridge...

That's a pretty cool system!

I was also wondering about the efficacy of using helium in the cartridge design...

I imagine one of the technical hurdles would be reliably retaining the projectile to the cartridge, and it being able to also fire reliably, at effective velocities.

Interesting. Did any of these make it stateside?
