By Tom from USA on 2008-01-03 17:55:49 Things I liked:This pellet is the most accurate long-range (not 10 meter) pellet I've ever tested in .177 caliber. It's very uniform in weight and shape and is made from pure lead, so there's seldom a problem with leading. I don't know of a better .177 caliber pellet at this time.Things I would have changed:I wish JSB would ship their pellets faster. What others should know:A pellet this heavy is probably not going to work in a lot of spring guns, but try it anyway. And, use it in PCPs, multi-pumps and CO2 rifles. |  |

By matt from USA on 2013-01-14 13:45:15 Things I liked:They are very clean and look like quality pellets.Things I would have changed:These are NOT THE SAME PELLETS as what I found in the JSB Sampler Test pack. For *me* and my RWS 34 (.177) the 100 Exact Heavy pellets in the sampler pack were magical. Based on my experience with the sampler pack I bought 1,500 (3 tins) more of them. Big disappointment... What others should know:Fortunately I still had a dozen or so Exact Heavy pellets remaining from the Test Sampler and was able to measure and compare them to the newer full tins I purchased. Here is what I found: "Old" test sampler pellets leading edge 4.445 mm --- 4.4831 mm trailing edge 4.5212 mm --- 4.5974 mm 10.333 grains "New" full-tin pellets leading edge 4.4323 mm --- 4.4577 mm trailing edge 4.4958 mm --- 4.5466 mm 10.316 grains Waiting to hear back from JSB (http://www.schulzdiabolo.cz/en/) regarding this... |

- Things I liked:it works fineothing else
Things I would have changed:nothing
What others should know:no - Things I liked:They are the best shooting pellet I've found for my AA S510
Things I would have changed:nothing - Things I liked:These pellets shot consistently accurate through my .177 PCP Benjamin Marauder. 10 shots at 10 meters look like one pellet hole. Can't wait until good weather gets here to test accuracy at longer distances.
Things I would have changed:screw on covers. - Things I liked:These are terrific. Super accurate in my Hatsan 125 nitro, and subsonic (quieter for the backyard).
Things I would have changed:Nothing
What others should know:I should have ordered more tins. - Things I liked:I thought I had found my magic pellet when I shot the Beeman Kodiaks out of my Talon SS. Didn't think anything would out do them. I decided to try the JSB Diabolo Exact Heavy and I am very glad I did. They absolutely the most accurate pellet I have tried. Once I am done shooting my Kodiaks and CP Ultra Magnums, these will be the only pellets I will ever buy. Shot 10 rounds from a table in my backyard at about 20 yards and the results put a huge smile on my face. 10 shots, 1 hole about half the size of a dime. I'm still in awe.
Things I would have changed:Screw-on lid would make this the absolute dream package.
What others should know:I'm convinced this is the very best pellet for my Talon SS .177. I cannot see why it would not perform the same way in any other .177 caliber airgun. - Things I liked:Unbelievable Consistency And Accuracy!!!
Things I would have changed:A screw on lid would be a big plus
What others should know:I use these pellets exclusively in an RWS 34 with a leapers 4x32 scope purchased as a package from Pyramyd Air in 2010. The combo this pellet and the .177 RWS 34 is amazing. At 90 yards, I can hit a 1/2 inch bulls eye - in fact, I can group 5 rounds in the same 1/2" bulls eye at that distance! Really!!! I never believed an airgun could maintain that degree of accuracy. I've tried other pellets over the years and the accuracy just wasn't there. They say certain rifles prefer certain pellets. That may or may not be true. All I know is that this pellet in Model 34 is deadly accurate. - Things I liked:So far the absolute most accurate .177 pellets for our Benjamin Marauder!! Getting 10 shot, 10 yard groups just 2 pellets wide!!! Very consistent from tin to tin.
Things I would have changed:Nothing
What others should know:JSB has a sample tin with 7 different sizes and weights. Could not find them at PA. - Things I liked:Good weight, odd but effective design. Great, pellet here. I have shot almost a whole tin of these through my Talon SS and it loves them. I got a good tin of these with no damaged pellets. I shot them out to 105 yards today and got a 3" group. Not too bad. Fantastic pellet with wonderful knockdown power. Starlings at 60 yards don't stand a chance.
Things I would have changed:Price
What others should know:Good pellet for more powerful airguns, or for someone who needs some good .177 knock down power. - Things I liked:Accuracy.
Things I would have changed:If these aren't working for you, change to a different type of pellet. Airguns can be sensitive to pellet diameter, shape, and weight. (Especially bores with high round counts.)
What others should know:These shoot well in my benji disco pre-charged rifles.(3custom hybrids of 2250 lower, Discovery upper, with extra barrel bands. Built them myself:-) These are very soft with thin skirts. I still have a hundred rounds or so of them because they seem a little fragile for going afield, for my purposes. There are other pellet brands in the same weight that produce comparable accuracy but are more robust. If I were hunting from ambush these would be fine. From my canoe, not quite so. - Things I liked:Consistent, well-made.
Things I would have changed:Nothing.
What others should know:Second-best pellet I have found for my RWS 34P springer, which likes heavier pellets. - Things I liked:They are very clean and look like quality pellets.
Things I would have changed:These are NOT THE SAME PELLETS as what I found in the JSB Sampler Test pack. For *me* and my RWS 34 (.177) the 100 Exact Heavy pellets in the sampler pack were magical. Based on my experience with the sampler pack I bought 1,500 (3 tins) more of them. Big disappointment...

These are the most accurate of all that I have tried in my 3 air rifles. In my Benjamin Marauder, they are incredibly accurate!
Things I would have changed:Nothing.
What others should know:I had never heard of JSB before I found PyramydAir. I thought the only decent pellets were Beeman and RWS. Wow, so happy I tried the JSB's because none of the tried and true favorites in my FWB 124 worked good in my Marauder. Their weight, 10.34 gr gives them much longer range accuracy too. - Things I liked:These pellets are by far the best pellet i've used for .177, each pellet was uniform and there were none with damaged skirts. I used them in the gamo whisper deluxe i previously owned and i set up a table to shoot from and a pop can at 100yds and every time i hit it center mass. There's not much more i can say.
Things I would have changed:People say screw on lid but screw them the lid is fine.
What others should know:Take advantage of the buy 3 get 1 free - Things I liked:Most accurate pellet in all my rifles.
Things I would have changed:We really need lot numbers/manufacture date
What others should know:I had run into a couple very bad tins. PA replaced these and my replacement was back to the normal excellent JSB pellets that I expect. Still wish JSB would go back to putting lot #s on the tins. - Things I liked:Great for spring guns, very accurate out of my Ruger Blackhawk. More accurate than Crosman Premier Domed Magnums.
Things I would have changed:The lid was hard to open, perhaps a screw on lid?
What others should know:This has become one of my go-to pellets for .177 spring guns. - Things I liked:Purchased these JSB pellets for my Daystate Airwolf MCT. These JSB Diabolo Exact Heavy shot just as well as my JSB Diabolo Jumbo Exact Heavy, but with about an extra 50 FPS due to their lighter weight. Dimenisions, skirt concentricity and weight were all very, very consistent. I have shot about 150 of these pellets out of the tin so far and I have not experienced any flyers as of yet.
Things I would have changed:Nothing really. The pellet and the container are all top notch and what you would expect from JSB.
What others should know:As with any domed pellet this shoots accurately enough for matches, but it just does not cut a nice round whole like a wadcutter. - Things I liked:Very uniform,and consistant.
Things I would have changed:nothing
What others should know:I bought these to tame a hatsan 125 sniper rifle, with lighter pellets this gun was all over the place. however after receiving these, I found out this gun can shoot. these pellets are very accurate, and deadly on small game. I highly recommend these pellets, and pyramyd airs buy three get one free is a big plus. - Things I liked:These pellets are very consistant and accurate.
Things I would have changed:nothing but the price
What others should know:Would recommend them - Things I liked:Great performance and accuracy,weight is perfect for medium to high power airguns. Wind resistants is good also . Since I shoot mostly at 75 yards you really need a heavy pellet . Wind resisstance is a must out at that range
Things I would have changed:Nothing . This pellet is all you really need
What others should know:Every airgun needs to have a variety of pellet brands and weights shot thru it . To find out wich pellet is most accurate in they're particular airgun. - 12345
