So it's not a good idea to lube pellets in a springer?
Same question posed within the last week. Same answers too. Don't waste your time & $. Use a pull-through!
Cant speak for PCP rifles, but they are bad news for springers. Not enough cushion for the piston from a cleaning pellet so it may slam the end of the compression tube and damage the seal. Many of the cleaning pellets leave particles of fiber behind inside the barrel. Enough of those fibers could cause issues with the delicate rifling. I would never recomend cleaning pellets for any spring gun.
