Huge Pellet!

[baranjhn]

I came across this huge pellet in my airgun stuff, and for the life of me, I can’t remember what airgun this was for. It doesn’t look like lead, so I think it's made out of some weird alloy too. That’s a JSB .25 for comparison. Any ideas?

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Looks like a bottle cork , maybe champagne

The propellant of that pellet can make people do the strangest things if used in large quantity…

The proportions are not exactly squared and true. You might encounter a “cork screwing” issue when firing this pellet.

It is indeed an alloy pellet, probably from California where lead has been deemed to make body parts fall off. Interestingly enough, that pellet fires out of a stealth airgun. These are made of glass and undetectable to metal detectors. They use natural fermentation to create carbon dioxide gas. Not very accurate, and prone to misfires usually at the unfortunate recipients face or eye.

That is from a Co2 "rifle"

That's actually a medical device. From the mid 19th century. It's called a "Diarrhea and flatulence abater"

Invented by.a French doctor, a Doctor L'anal Champagné

A couple more large pellets, next to a .25 JSB Hades for scale:

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

I had a cork gun we bought on a road trip out west when I was 5 that shot that specific caliber

You need to get a thunder mug and shoot that thing with a little FFF behind it!
