Are pellets sensitive to the day of the week?

Silly I know but sometimes I swear it is true.

Have ever had times when two (or more) pellets do this to you? Pellet A shoots very good on day one. Pellet B shoots terrible that day. Then a day or two or three later pellet A shoots terrible and pellet B shoots very good.

Same weather, temperature and wind conditions both days. Same rifle and shooting setup. Same bench, same rest, etc.

If it wasn't for the fact that one of the pellets shot really well on each of the days I would blame the poor groups on the shooter. I haven't tested extensively enough to see if pellet A prefers Monday, Wednesday and Friday while pellet B prefers Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday or some other combinations.

Has anybody else ever encountered this head scratching situation?

So I was thinking about this thread tonight. I was shooting my TX200 and putting up some pretty fantastic groups (for me) then all of a sudden it started to go to hell. I made a very conscious decision to pay attention to every little thing and you know what. I was getting tired and I had both started to grip the rifle tighter and put more cheek on the gun. So here is a perfect example of some fairly imperceptible inputs causing issue.
 
Anything "mass" made is usually made "with-in" some sort of tolerance. Not all exactly the same. Hence the possibility of different
action.
