The above is something I copied from the article you directed me to.

It does not say anything about a 177 shooting flatter given the same type of pellets.

I used the Jumbos as a baseline. Substitute any pellets of the same type you wish.

So let me get this straight...your telling me that a .22 pellet, which is at least twice the weight of a comparable (as in domed, pointed, wad utter) isn't going to drop more if they both start off at the same speed?
Uhhh...don't think so.
