Centerfires are to big. You have to use a 22. Its the perfect size. It'll fit in the arrow but the rim keeps it from going all th way in. And thats why you put like gum or something over the end of the 22. you stick the pin in it and it'll hold it in place. And just to be clear for other people. You do not put the pin in the middle. A 22. is not center fire. You put the tack on the edge of th shell. So it hits the rim of the bullet. Explaining the word "rimfire".
