I was talking about 177 air rifle pellets Thanks
I have thought about doing it. My concern is powder coat leaves a small imperfection where it is sitting. This doesn't matter to s powder burner.
Maybe some one will figure it out
You could do it the same as a hollow point or hollow base bullet and place it on a screw point or nail thumb tacks stuck threw a piece of card stock my even work well.
Reloading to save money I am sure the saving is going to start soon
If you have pellets that are too small, powdercoat will add a bit of diameter.
Many pellets are lightly oiled in the manufacturing process, that oil could give some trouble.
I have powdercoated 45 bullets that had been lubed in liquid alox. Worked ok after letting them soak over night in lacquer thinner, then wiped with a paper towel.
To lazy to chase arrows.

My son is getting in to air rifles and we have found out its not the Red Ryder BB guns we thought! This is a whole different world of shooting sport from what we are used to.
Indid a bunch of large pellets 30 & 35 calmfor a guy who was into PCP he had leading problems. He said that the leading was cured but didnt get expansion and accuracy was slightly off?
