Still pretty accurate.

most of these pellets had a lead seam on both sides, maybe the molds aren't tight enough? This happened to both tins. So apparently they didn't inspect these pellets very well.

I would wait to order these to see if they start using good quality control. The lighter jsb pellets were of normal jsb quality.

What a diff a pellet makes. My JSB Exact Jumbo Heavy Diablo .22 18.13 Gr pellets showed up from PA today. Holy grouping Batman. I would have been one to say a pellet is a pellet. I would have been sooooo wrong. I gently washed them in dish detergent, laid them out on a towel and dried them and lightly lubed them, cleaned my barrel and put 5/5 dead center of my empty Crosman Premier can @ 15.5 yards the grouping looks like a figure 8. I look at it and only see what I would call 2 very closely grouped shots but it is in fact 5. I'm getting addicted. I like the addition of shock absorbing material in the tin as well. Great product JSB.

Right now, nothing what so ever with regards to the pellets. Maybe a screw on lid for the tin.

These things are crazy accurate, I cant wait to shoot at targets a little further away. BTW is was firing them from a Benjamin Disco no power modifications @ 15.5 yards into my empty Crosman tin clamped in place inside of my heavy duty pellet trap.

This is a consitant shooting pellet in my FX semi auto. It is a hard hitting pill.

nothing at this time

If you are thinking of shooting this pellet in a FX Revolution DO NOT lube this pellet. Its OK to wash and blow dry. Of course this only thing you should know if you own a REVO

Always very good quality. Clean, consistent ammo.

A screw on/off lid would be much easier to use than the current style tin.

These are very accurate in my RWS 450 magnum and my Benjamin Marauder .22 pistol. They are all I ever use.

Extremely accurate, precision made, best pellet I have ever used and will not use any other any more.

screw on tin top

if you can't hit the target with these pellets, you need a better barrel, as the way it was for my .22 Mrod, replaced the Barrel with a LW polygon barrel and now it is a precision tack driver with these pellets.

These are excellent pellets for accuracy and killing power. In my Benj 392 they are capable of sub 1/2 inch groups at 20 yds. Against tree rats they prove to be deadly and will over-penetrate at 8 pumps under 40 yds. Chest shots on crows under 50 yds prove to be instant kill shots.

Wish they were cheaper but in today's economy, that's not likely to change.

I powder coat all my pellets with technical grade moly/artist grade graphite--this reduces friction and lead contamination from handling--moly/graphite is non-toxic and washes off easily.

I like the larger weight for my pcp.

I would not change anything.

it's good to have a larger option for the pcp when hunting small game.

Very accurate from AA S510

I thought I had hit the pinnacle with the 15.9 gr. JSBs but the 18.1 gr. JSB are even better.

Very accurate and consistent pellet

Occasional inconsistencies in skirts

Cheaper pellets will match the accuracy of these at closer ranges. These pellets shine when you stretch them out. 50+ yard shots on rabbits are possible and humane with correct placement.

Everything

Prob nothin

Grate long rang shooting

For the most part very uniform and consistantly made. If it work good in your guy use them.

I recieved one tin that was just crap! Lots of bent skirts and would not shoot a group lots of fliers.

Ive found that these brand of pellets work good for most airguns and are a go too for testing in accuracy when i first recieve a gun.

They fantastically retain energy. Very Hard hitting pellet at distance. Consistent in every respect; size shape performance. Great pellets for heavy springers. Lethal, they kill all the way up to raccoon, fox and woodchucks in a powerful gun. My Trail XL loves these and shoot dime size groups all the way out to 50 yards-no fliers. Ive shot thousands through my XL now and they shoot great every box every time

availability/cost. They are not always in stock and I hate paying shipping for them. $150 of them is a lot to get free3 shipping and the extra tin doesn't really offset that. It starts to make them price prohibitive even if they are awesome. I've shot Crossmans too and they are not as good but shoot not terrible either. I can get them from a local store,cost half as much, and are slightly less accurate,

Accuracy with these is great but only when you start to shoot at range. I found 40y easier to shoot that 20. I'm sure it was the pellet. These are medium/long range pellets and I think they need that to stabalize because they are heavy. Just a guess but that is how the act for me. Lastly If you want the best pellet out these are them. The whole JSB brand is fantastic but you pay for them. $16.99 a tin is a ton for me, I shoot a lot. But if you just want the best pellets everand don't mind paying then look no further.

Uniform design on the pellet,depending on what type of pcp your using,I have a new Brocock 22 cal. and it took 4 shots to get me to a dead center, no flyers,perfect holes.

nothing

as I guess, you are aware that every single PCP out there takes a specific pellet, so your going to most likely going to do what I did, read these reviews and save your self some money on pellets !!

The most consistent pellet I have found for my Air Force Condor. I have tried dozens of different brand pellets and different grains, but I always come back to the JSB Match Diabolo Jumbo Heavy.

It would be nice see them in a can with screw top lid.

nice performing pellets, not many de-formed pellets per tin

screw on lid

these work best in my .22 cal. rws 48. second best in benjamin marauder.

Thight groups my RWS 34 P just loves these

Nothing

Cannot go wrong with jsb hands down best pellet out there

Quantity Price

accurate and shhot well from my sumatra

Heavier weight. Surprisingly good groupings even out to 30 yards but the point of impact is significantly to the left and lower than other pellets. But it is consistent enough that I can adjust my aim as need and hold over when I use these. The softer lead helps seal in my rifle I think. I love the larger tin size.

For my Browning Leverage these were the second best rounds next to the 16.3. H&N Terminators/Beeman Devastator clones. I'd use them for Rabbits at 30 yards. Rabbits and squirrels at 20 yards or less.

Every rifle is different. Try a bunch of pellets until you find what your gun likes.

the tin they come in is nice

not sure but I can't get them to shoot a good group yet. the first set i ordered were perfect but this second batch has to many flyers in my Marauder

try a lot of different pellets. Every barrel is different. I am shooting CPHP within 3/4 inch consistent and can't get these JSB's to group with anything even holding up a mill dot or two on the scope. some high sue low. Have to work with tuning my gun before I go back to these.

A great price on pellets which are uniform and consistent. They group less than 1/2" at 50 yards and just about one hole at 30y out of my Daystate Huntsman Regal XL .22 (30fpe) Through the chrony I was getting 28.5 foot pounds at muzzle.

Nothing

Excellent pellet for a airgun under 40ft lb energy.
