I will try to explain it.
First of all, before I start, no one knows everything and no one is infallible.
We were making many tests over a year, searching for the real issue/what is causing instability. Every time we were on a chase for some error at the end we realized that this is not the case, so over the year we were eliminating possible "issues" coming from manufacturing. At the end we realized there is no. It is simply a stability issue which is normal/common with every pellet or better said every heavier pellet. I don't want to name any other competition, but you know about which we are talking about, having stability issues, shown as flyers(mostly low). We all know that one .22 existing pellet works very good in calm day, but not at all in the wind. It is physics that you cannot take out of the equation. Stability results will change with different things, weather, speed, location, winter, summer etc, wind direction, twist rate, choke, no choke, etc. That is why it is hard to duplicate spiral results, especially outside.
That is why we made that one, lighter version, which is way better in stability.
Same you have with 44 and 51 grain pellets in .30. 51 grain simply doesn't work as good as 44, and that is why they do not apply discounts, but some find them good for their specific use, and you chose the one that works better for you.
As a newcomer in pellet manufacturing, we had a very good year in learning things, huge break through in learning curve and even more important in manufacturing, so we are positive that we learned a lot and will now be able to implement all these things with new coming pellets/designs/pellet manufacturing technology. We are not the best, we never said we know everything, we always listen to shooters/market, so we will always search to improve things no matter how good they are and especially learn, so at the end of the day you will be able to hit more X then you were ever before.
And yes, after one more year we will learn even more things, and we will be able to say that this new pellet is much better, and it will actually be, but that doesn't mean the older version is bad. The new one is just better, like with every other thing on this planet. Or is it better to stop development and make existing pellets for the next 50 years?
Me as i shooter i don't agree with that idea.
Wish you a nice day,
