Just wondering if anyone has shot 3d printed pellets and if so how did they work out? I was thinking about printing a few but didn't know if they would cause any damage to the barre. I was gonna shoot them mostly in my 2240. Obviously close range stuff but it they work out I may try them in an Avenger.
Just printed 10 of them. Not exactly JSB quality. They are a bit rough but who knows they may work for very close range.
Oh if this belongs somewhere else please move it.
thanks

I made some .22 before. Had to change layer height to make a smoother pellet. They weighed so little at 1.9 grains. The purpose was 15 feet and under mouse hunting in the garage. Effective.
Using a Beeman P19 with smooth bore in .22.
Not real effective past 3-4 yards. Accuracy, nah, not even a reality. Short distances okay.

I believe there was a member here that printed pellets, they were designed to incorporate a BB in the tip. They seemed to be effective.
