Anyone have experience oiling pellets? I sprayed a little ballistol on my pellets. I haven’t tested them. Is it a bad thing? Good thing? What are the pros and cons?
Be careful what you use. Many things that you dont even consider flamable might get ignition ala dieseling effect (pressure ignition) in airguns. This might prove to be fatal especially when using PCP. You can get explosion that backfires and enters your pressure tube or bottle and blows it up.

White Lightnin bicycle chain lube. It's like a wax once dry. Put a few drops in the lid of a tin, smear around to a thin layer, then recap the tin and roll it over and over gently.
I don't like the oil because it can be wiped off, or run if you get too much. Plus it will diesel in springers if you get carried away with it.
Dieseling simply will not happen in a PCP. Grease also ignites in springers. Don't believe it? Put some Vaseline (or even better vapor rub) in the skirt of a pellet...
