Zan pelet sizer
- Thread starter Solo1
- Start date
I have not bought one and do not plan to.
My personal thought is that
1) it seems complicated for something as simple as downsizing a pellet
2) the skirt diameter hardly matters, being so thin and with little bore contact, so the primary value of resizing is adjusting the head diameter.
3) I really like that they’re building a quality tool. I don’t know of many shooters who have had great luck with resizing so at that level of investment will it catch on? I hope the lead-in and bore smoothness is really good.
4) when it comes to resizing pellets I’m a believer in making sure the skirt is a few thousandths wider than the head. So while this certainly accomplishes the job I don’t see how this is an improvement over a tapered-bore resizing tool that would otherwise fit in a pocket of your range bag.

I have a .22 and .25 adjustable pellet sizer from trrob.
When I received these I had to do my own fiddling to bring these to my level of liking. That is just me being very anal with things I do and how I do.
I am shooting 50 and 100 BR, and I can confirm that the POI is tighter when I resize the 34 gn MK1 and MK2's.
The trrob adjustable sizer is conical, resizes the head and skirt to different OD.
That ZAN sizer looks impressive, I must take a closer look
