This post is about sorting pellets. I’m sure if someone wanted to start a new post to discuss BC and their opinions of which method works best it would get lots of attention...

Mike....no, not true. You will not generate the same impulse to the barrel with different pellets, power levels, or levels of tune.

Regardless of the contention over the subject of the OP, thanks to all who have chimed in on the topic..
There is a bundle of good info, insights and thoughts to sort through in deciding what works best FOR ME.
Heavy/Light total score 234 4x, 234 5x = 468 9x
Weighed 25.4 total score. 232 5x, 234 6x = 466 11x
The data is very clear that my gun prefers a mixture of the light and heavy over the consistent 25.4 gr.....lol.

Checking BC using poi is the least accurate way and fraught with error.
Pellets rise in a left to right wind....and fall in a right to left. I can’t begin to analyze the variances well enough at 100y to predict their exact behavior. When I attempted to use poi to determine BC at 50y....I had wild variances. 100 and further are surely less reliable.
Harmonics are very much a factor that can make a slow shot go high. I made a post about this already....don’t remember if it was in this thread.
Thats how Rimfire barrel tuners work to eliminate or shrink vertical stringing.
