My brother shoots small bore competition and he weighs and sizes his bullets. I don't think this is just a JSB issue. I had heard from long-time airgun shooters that JSB use to be more consistent however, I believe top shooters back then were weighing and saying the same thing. I don't know the process of making pellets but I image it would be tough for JSB to sell a tin of pellets for $100 if it was a lot more effort. If they could offer a smaller variance in size and weight, I believe many (but not all) would be willing to pay 30% more. I am very interested as to the results Matt Dubber and FX come up with. We may be seeing air rifles switching to bullets to take accuracy to the next level for air rifles.
