German video on Deformed Airgun Pellets.

Interesting, but I assume the results would have been measurably different at higher speeds and further ranges, and especially in windy conditions.

It's not too surprising.

If you check AIM SMALL on Youtube, he's done these deformed pellet experiments at longer ranges with good results.

I spoke to Allen Z years ago about this. He did some testing on it himself. He said he would deform the skirts on the pellets and he couldn't detect a difference on how they shot. He said that the pressure from the air would push the skirt into the rifling. But I still throw out the pellets with the bend skirts. lol
