The destructions say not to exceed 100 grains equivalent of pellets. Ok how many grains does a pellet have. This tube has 6 pellets in it. How many pellets make 100 grains? Package don't say.

Yep, they are leaving me to my own judgement.

Dang ct, that's not right IMO. Those packages are supposed to be marked. At a pure guess they're likely 50 gr pellets as that's the most common, but you definitely need to know for sure! I'm using BH 209 this season, but my new Wolf is being cantankerous. I can but the bullseye within an inch with two shots, then have a flyer. Not sure what's going on. Got home to check it out and saw some pretty good chunks of stuff in the barrel. Not sure it if was plastic from the sabots or powder, but I just brushed it out good and might shoot it again sometime before next Sat if I can. Don't like wondering if it's gonna hit where I'm aiming. :shock:

Ok, I watcheded a video on my phone.
The new Fire Star pellets require "3" pellets to equal 100 grains.

Repeat the new Groved Fire Star Thipple 7 pellets require "3" pellets to equal 100 grains.

Wow. That's a new one on me! I think I'd rather have 2 than to fool with 3 LOL

Good deal ct! I've been told I need a different sabot for my Wolf, that the old black sabot I'm using, and have been using forever, isn't great in these Wolf's. It was tighter than Pelosi's grip on the House gavel going down the barrel! :shock:

I have switched from the old 240 grain xtp with the black plastic jacket to a 200 grain with a red jacket.
