for shooting in your PCP?

..once it was clear there wasn't an advantage, stopped lubing pellets. Your results may be different, you won't know until you try.

used to never wash or lube pellets. never had a problem with bores or accuracy. last 2000 rounds or so i have been washing and lubing and can't tell any difference. i will keep doing it though cuz alot of the crosman pellets have slivers of lead on the skirts.

Disco in .22 and RWS 48 in .177 like Crosman Premiers, but only if washed and lubed. I use Pledge, but only when the wife isn't looking because I know she would find something else for me to use that wax on.

I use Krytech wax based lube on all my Premiers,
CPHD, CP ultra-Mag, Benji Disco HP

I am hooked on it.
Love the smell, and the feel of the pellets.

I shoot a lot of CP's out of my .177 M-rod.

I don't lube anything else.

it came out of the box...very tight, very harsh, and while it shot them accurately, it would strip slivers off of the harder CP's and foul the bore after 150-ish shots and accuracy would drop....so I started lubing them and it cured the problem....

However, I will say I learned something about lubing the hard way....

I was running low on Preds and shooting my BSA while the Mrod was at Gregs getting his love.....so I had been plinking with lubed CP's...when I aired it up and headed to the squirrel timber, I missed 7 in a row headshots.....NEVER have I missed that many shots....so I finally sighted it on a spot on the side of a tree at 30yds (sight in range) and it was all over the place! Ran out of preds sighting it in, so put a lubed CPHP in it...right on the money! WTH!?

So I did some testing, it takes a bit for a barrel to resettle when going from lubed to unlubed pellets....my BSA took 22 shots before it returned to a consistent group at POI....

Once I got the choke smoothed out on the Mrod, and it stopped stripping lead on the harder CP's, I quit lubing....too much to keep up with....

BTW....JSB's come with some type of lube on them already....

Yes, JSB pellets are already lubed from factory.
