Size, shape, and weight. This is a really nice pellet, It is said to be the same as JSB 15.89 grain, and it did not disappoint.

Nothing.

I shot a dime size group with 3 pellets stacked. One of the best pellets for my AR.

If you own a Stoeger X50 buy these pellets and forget about anything else.

Zero

Get groups of a half dollar size at 35 yards in a field gun - perfecto!

Looks like a well made pellet.

These pellets are supposed to be 5.51 mm. But they average 4.48. These pellet do not group in my odor due to the head diameter.

Not for odor.

The price and count

Accuracy. They grouped like a shotgun in everything I tried them in so far.

Other AA pellets do much better.

Very poor quality of all pellets I have ever tried. The skirts were all bent on at least half the can and the shots were as scattered as far as 6 inches apart. No consistency in patterns, fit and quality. Quality control is lacking

I would not recommend these pellets

Don't buy these unless you want to be severely disappointed

VERY accurate in my Condor using CO2...Consistent 1/4" or less hole in hole groups at 40 yards...When I first tested them I was getting ticked with so many fliers until I realized they were actually one hole shots instead...

Nothing...

After testing 12 different pellets these came out on top using my AirForce Condor at 40 yards...The Air Arms Falcon 13.43 grains came in second followed very closely by the 14.3 grain JSB Exacts and then the 15.9 JSB Exacts with 1/2" groups at 40 yards...I didn't try any of the heavier Kodiaks and Barracudas because of using CO2 and the lower available energy... With the Condor on CO2 these were averaging 720 fps for 18.4 ft. lbs...Plenty for my back yard target shooting and occasional crow hunting. Some say these are re-packaged JSB's and that may be but all my CO2 air rifles prefer the Air Arms over the JSB's for whatever reason...

great pellets 15.9 weight makes for hard hitting pellets in more powerful air rifles.

nothing

These are rebadged JSB's and at a cheaper price. Sure make a hard hitting combination when pushed to the 918fps range that my heavy hitter puts out.

nothing

I am shooting an RWS model 54 in .22 cal and this pellet shoots pooly from my rifle. From 40 feet this pellet prints just under an inch.

Not much, can't think of any thing good, sorry. I sent these back, and they were free!!. I bought 3 tins of other pellet manufactures and got these as the "4th tin free". I hope you post this for the sake of other air gunners.

Deformed skirts, casting flash on shirts, half the pellets in the tin had casting seams on the domes. The majority of these would not fit in the pellet chamber. First time I have ever had a pellet jam in the barrel.

Avoid these pellets if you want accuracy.

These pellets work nicely with my Beeman RS2. Taking out pegeons at 35 yards.

Nice hard hitting pellet. They are a little heavier but thats a good thing if you are using a PCP or a more Powerful Air Gun..

Not much. maybe a little better Q.C. some of the skirts were bent, but since they are made from a softer type of lead its a easy fix. I've seen some people were complaining about the bent skirts but to fix that all you have to do is take another pellet,(it does not have to be the exact same pellet to do this) and push it up into the skirt and this will "flare" out the skirt and even it out. I have done this with many types of pellets with NO Issues and great results.

Buy them and try them. they work great for hunting with the softer type of lead because they really flaten out when they hit your target.. I also get really good groups at 40-50 yards out of my Custom Disco..

Very clean pellet.Will not lead your fingers like crosman premiers.

Like everybody else says a screw on lid

If you have an Air Arms S410 buy these.I get sub half inch groups at 50 yards.About 35 Shots of consistant accuracy on a single charge.Excellent Pellet for an excellent PCP.They shoot good in my Model #34 RWS also at 50yds.

Almost as good as JBS they seem to some time vary in size, but not often

NADA

These are one of those pellets to try frist to fine out if you gun likes them

Everything

nothing

Shoots half in groups at 50 yards with my model 34 RWS. RWS hobbies ars next to it in the same gun.

Nothing

Seems like every pellet has a bent skirt, very disappointed, does not hold any type of pattern

Diablo pellets have a very pour Quality check, I have four different boxes from Diablo and will never buy another.

Cheap

I bought these when PA ran out of the JSBs. Well, they are nowhere near the JSBs. Lots of deformed pellets and the pellets are the softest I have ever seen. I mean you just slightly push on the skirt and it deforms. So so on accuracy from my Diana 460 mag.

I would just use these for messing around.

Not very accurate in my Marauder .Very poor groups. The shape and weight are ok, but not a good performer. I'm staying with the Crosman Premiers.

Maybe lube them in the can would help accuracy.

very clean, accurate!

put a good screw on lid, not a small dint on the top cover!

this pellet works great also on my mendoza rm-600 and avenger 1100, other's complain about some damages, when my tins arrive, i opened it rigth away to see if thier's any dint, mine was perfect no problem, well recomended!

Weight. The few that shot okay smacked hard. Accuracy unreliable.

Quality control would be first. When I opened the tin I could clearly see a lot of deformed pellet skirts. I then decided to take time and look at every one, yes all 500. I found 95 that were useless. The others I decided to keep were barely passable even to a novice. That is a 20 % loss not only on pellets but my money too. PYRAMID should not even sell these until the manufacturer cleans up their act. They are just ripping you off and having fun on us for little effort, especially for the price.

DON'T BUY THESE ! Stick with the proven leaders, RWS, Crosman, Beeman, etc., not necessarily in that order. I've been shooting air guns and other weapons for forty plus years.

Very Hard Hitting Pellet. Its a Little Heavier than some other of the ,22's so it shoots better out of my Discovery PCP. Higher Powered guns benifit fom this extra weight allowing them to be more stable in flight. good value for the money.

nothing

The lead on these are softer than some of the other brands on the market. but this is not a bad thing. its actually better for hunting applications. but the pellets do deform eaiser in the tin, so be easy on them and don't throw them around.
