Hard Air Magazine readers first learned of the Zan Projectiles Pellet Sizer in our report from the 2025 IWA OutdoorClassics show in Germany. Now it’s available for pre-order from Airgun Depot.
Plus, we have clear specifications for the range of sizing options that are available in each caliber.
First, a reminder…
The Zan Projectiles Pellet Sizer offers the ability to size both the head and the skirt at the same time with one action. But the head and skirt diameters will be different – as you choose.
Given the ongoing interest in wringing the utmost accuracy out of our airguns at increasing ranges, pellet sizing could be something that many shooters will want to do. Zan’s aim is to make it consistent and easy – as he showed me in Germany and you can see in the photographs below.
Zan’s pellet sizer is to be available in the standard, popular calibers. There’s different models for .177, .22, .25 and .30 calibers. But the principal is identical in each case. This is a manual, one-at-a-time, high precision tool.
So this is a product unashamedly aimed at the serious, competitive, long range precision shooter. If it performs as I expect, it’s likely to be a mandatory requirement for anyone aiming to be in the top scorers in 100 Yard benchrest competition.
Each sizer is supplied with a range of interchangeable dies. There’s 5 head and 5 skirt size dies, giving a total of 25 different combinations for each caliber to tailor the characteristics of your pellets.
Here’s the options for .177 caliber.
| Head Sizes | 4.49 mm | 4.50 mm | 4.51 mm | 4.52 mm | 4.53 mm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Skirt Sizes | 4.56 mm | 4.60 mm | 4.64 mm | 4.68 mm | 4.72 mm |
Now .22 caliber.
| Head Sizes | 5.50 mm | 5.52 mm | 5.52 mm | 5.54 mm | 5.55 mm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Skirt Sizes | 5.59 mm | 5.61 mm | 5.64 mm | 5.66 mm | 5.70 mm |
.25 caliber options are here.
| Head Sizes | 6.33 mm | 7.63 mm | 7.64 mm | 7.65 mm | 7.66 mm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Skirt Sizes | 7.69 mm | 7.72 mm | 7.75 mm | 7.80 mm | 7.81 mm |
.30 cal. dies are these.
| Head Sizes | 6.33 mm | 7.63 mm | 7.64 mm | 7.65 mm | 7.66 mm |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Skirt Sizes | 7.69 mm | 7.72 mm | 7.75 mm | 7.80 mm | 7.81 mm |
The Street Price is $249.99. That’s to be expected for a high-precision tool of this type. But if it significantly improves your shooting accuracy – as it well might – it could be priceless!

) Plop a movie on or whatever grab a tin of pellets and start sizing! 
. At least you’re not dropping $250.00 for the mold and then getting whacked $25.00 - $35.00 for each additional mold. So basically what happens is, you drop your pellet into the mold and smash or press it into a larger diameter than you started with?? BC I would guess is going to change because the head is going to get wider and shorter while the skirt will more than likely do the same? I know pellets don’t have great BC as it is and I’m just trying to understand. Maybe the pellet flies better out at 100 yards… maybe it don’t. And really? A 7mm + pellet getting shoved through 6 mm barrel? The pessimist side of me (which isn’t very often) is glad I don’t really care if I shoot 100 yards anymore, I love my N50 group. And my pesting duties are seldom more than 40 yards. I’m sure it will trickle into N50 as well, but 99% sure not in my shooting bag. I have to shoot a heck of a lot of sighters to pay for it.
