For pellets, I have had the best luck with .000 (actual groove size) and nothing bigger than +.001.

30calHere is what may be a dumb question. Assuming the pellets are not to small for the breach, don't they get resized by the very act of the bolt forcing them into to breach? When I load a pellet into the breach in my RAW using the single shot try, as I slowly push the lever forward and watch the pellet load, it sure looks and feels like it is being resized as it goes in. I can feel when the head makes contact and then again when the skirt does. There is resistance from both. What am I missing?

By the way, my dies will not make a small pellet/bullet larger. If it is already smaller than the die, it will just fall thru.
Aaron, could I suggest you try 0.217 which is 5.512 mm for .22 cal."ajshoots"I am waiting on .218 for one of my .22's and a .300 for my .30 cal. I have been ordering exact groove size as it seems to work best thus far.
