Ahhh...what a dunce? Chronied my .177 and .22 CFXs today. Had tins everywhere. Grabbed-up a .177 pellet and stuck it in the gun, thought it felt a "bit loose" but took the shot anyway. DOH!
Loud report, and 273 fps on the chrony...yes, it was the .22 CFX.
If that isn't as close to a dry fire as it gets, I don't know what is!
Anbody want to fess-up to doin' the same, or worse?
