Might give the trans fluid a try. The Mrs. HATES the smell of Ballistol. Lol
The thing is getting your rag saturated just right to give a nice thin coating of the skirt and head .. you don't want to us too much or get lube inside the skirts. Why once I get my lube rag saturated lightly I just need to add a drop or so as I go as needed . I don't explain stuff well without hands on show and tell to example things ..lol

Dry Papertowls folded in sour cream type container then swirl around and refresh paper towels as needed ( tip.. paper towels sheets can be dried out for reuse to 😉)

Well thanks guys for helping me swallow the higher cost of the Jsbs🤭... I do think that is part of the cost right there, the pellet cleanliness. I am staring at 2 empty JSB .22 tins now from the S510 and there is almost zero lead bits left! The Crosmans tin that's different, plenty of debris. It rained today mostly so I pulled out ALL my pellets and checked what I have and what I still need (wife gave strange look). I have kept my .177 collection under control but my .22 pellets I'm still experimenting! D&L has some H&N pellet sales goin on so I am gonna buy a few tins that I loved from the sample packs. (The lightweight Tin ones, Hornets, and Barracuda Hunters were extremely accurate) Hard No on the crow magnums they are basically a H.P. wadcutter and go sideways very quickly!!

Same here man! My wife can't stand the smell of Balistol.
Mine also. I have to use it in my shed or outside.
I recently saw first hand the ability of balistol. I cleaned some 1911 mags with it. I left them on a table outside and we had a pop up shower. I go out to dry them off and reapply. The water was beading right off of them. I dried, reapplied then put them back in storage.
 
Well... I'd never of just bought these daisy hp pellets unless a out of stock on anything else " better". Afte a good cleaning been pretty good especially at $6.40 a 500 tin

The R9 , First 5 @ 50y @x4

Sadly not in town local sold , but hay... They got plenty of them crappy pointed daisy .. lol, go figure🤤
 
I worked on my S200. There may have been too much moly grease. The cocking arm is sticking in the back position.
While it was apart I also installed a Rowan barrel band.

I put 10 10.3 gr through this hole at 10m

Ya, between the black box daisy flathead/ wad and these hollow points I got pretty good results for a don't break the bank pellets .. do far better then I would of expected without trying them ..
 
Well that tin did not last long ..lol

Looking back I may even say these daisy did as good or slightly better then cphp.

I sure did not seem to have a the flyers / them crosman that one that spoils the grouping ..lol

Maybe being a new thing to try I may of tried harder instead of the everyday la de da mondaine cphp. Ijdk ..lol

Ya, the daisy hollow point I will buy again if I find them in a store somewhere.

This morning coffee sipping first shots, stock irons, 6 o'clock target hold , 50y , R9 , dhp.177 ... Can't complain I guess

P.s .......
Maybe daisy getting in with crosman could help make the cphp better ..🥴

I hope my (future) retirement coffee breaks looks like yours!😎...the Benjamin single dies just hit Canada, might have to try them to! They have been 'tumbled longer' it says so should be decently clean. Nice results with a cheap pellet is always good...now you will have to retry against the crosmans😅 As soon as the doubt sets in you have to retest....I've been there...often.

Ya, I see tumble wash,rince, dry,lube does / helps the most really knocks the trash off and smooths the casting marks . I do see a difference between the out of tin as is vs ones I prep.
 
I found I am getting some reg creep on my S200. The initial shot was low, then I took an hour break after the first 50 shots, came back and had a low number.

No pcp guy but seems you got pretty consistent 69 shots .. thing I thought was odd that after that your cylinder pressure is lower then at start but a increase in fps .. I'd figured the fps would be dropping
