Not my video. Personally I do wash and lube my pellets and will continue to do so as I like handling them better after they've been lubed with silicone. Much cleaner.

It makes a big difference on the bore condition and consistency. I run fresh wetted slugs and pellets out of everything, and never had a leading-up problem or loss of accuracy. In fact, one airgun barrel actually likes a lubed and leaded up barrel better for tighter accuracy versus being cleaned and running lubed slugs.

I agree, I think the only reason to lube is for the barrel, it certainly doesn't appear to change the FPS. I took 10 pellets, lubed them up with Mobile 1 and loaded them in the mag after firing 10 'dry' there wasn't one lick of difference as in nary 1 fps faster or slower. I haven't notices any subsequent difference in POI. M1 stays around for a long long time, I should really buy stock in the company.

I watched the video when it came out and had a good laugh. Nothing new here. Every barrel is different and what his barrel does is only relevent to him, and that barrel. Everyone that is not happy with their groups should try it and accept the results for what they are, not what they want them to be, and that is what he did. It was a good video in that regard.
