The first air rifle I owned, I purchased from a friend back in about 1972, a Slavia. It was kinda beat and I'm sure the seals needed work, but what did I know back then - it was fun. Didn't have anything new until about 1986, bought a Beeman R10 - it was great, but due to a deal I couldn't pass through Beeman I traded it in for an R8 paired with a Blue Ribbon scope - what a great rifle. During this progression, like most, I sought out more and more accuracy and shooting skill. Over the years I have tried to vary this, but wondering how most of you find the best results with different seating methods. Simply push the pellet in place to a flush skirt seating, or pushing it in farther to a uniform depth, like I have tried with a pen tip? At one time Beeman made a tool called pell-seat which was similar to a pen tip. I wonder also if the two methods result in a change in muzzle velocity. For myself, I don't know that I've seen an improvement with insertion beyond flush pushed in place with my thumb. Just wondering what others' results were?
