    Likely that or Coarseness. Many pellets that don't have the slick sheen stick and funnel in my hoppa. I like da shinny dusty ones as they run right to the bottom with just a handful left.

    Hoppa lube or waxing might help the stickies??

    Lubing it a few times recently helps. The hopper too :zip:

    Yes G the only pellet that this has been a problem with to this extent, not a big deal except when I am not at home and I have not taken any measures as slicking(not going there with the lube description you freaks):D the side walls with anything . The Vermonts have a lot of pine pitch in them still which is apparently good as they burn wicked hot but the downside is they are a bit sticky .
