. . . so I discovered a "useful" way to pass the time while just otherwise sitting idle in front on the idiot box watching football - I just sorted three tins of jsb 10.3's. Yeah -- got 'em all sorted. So now . . . .
A) I'm still new to all of this and am still learning lots
B) I've shot one match so far this past summer - couldn't make the second one (which was also the last one for the year around here - central upstate N.Y. - it's winter time now ) and had been practicing with and using AA 10.3's. I've still got 150-200 left from last year - also sorted by weight - the ones I still have left are "keepers" that fall into actual 10.3 weight range.
Possibly a dumb question - but trust me I'm full of those.
I know the AA's and JSB's are for all intents and purposes the same thing. Do I want to mix this batch of freshly sorted JSB's with what's left of last years AA's or should I keep them separate in the event that, for whatever reason, one does in fact seem to shoot more accurately / consistently than the other one? I've googled this some and have read mixed opinions . . . . my inclination is to in fact keep them separate.
Why did I buy the .177 JSB 10.3's? Well ... my .22 seems to prefer them - 15.89's. I tried 15.89 AA's in it after having gone through a couple of tin's of the JSB's and . . . the AA's just didn't seem as deadly lethally accurate and consistent as the JSB's in the gun - so I went back to them.

If curious: I bought three tins - 1500 pellets. After going through each and every one of them ( washed with soap and water, then dried good for a day or so ) I wound up with two tins of "in spec" 10.3's. One tin 3/4 full of 10.4's and the other tin of lighter 10.2's a little over half full. There were a handful of "beefcake heavies" (lol) 10.5's too but literally only 5 or 6 of those.
