JSB Match Diabolo, .22 Reviews

They expand more than the JSB 18gr pellets, therefore they have a greater impact on game, there is a noticeable difference.

Price, way too steep, I will try the FX and see how they do.

If you have a problem with starlings, house sparrows, crows, pigeons, rats, etc. or like hunting, GET THESE! They are easy to load (easier to load the H&N Terminators) and they come in 250-500ct tins.

They cause significantly more damage than the JSB Exact domed pellets.

Nothing I can think of.

They are not as accurate as the JSB Exact Heavy in the Air Arms S510, but acceptable up to about 45 yards.

These are the most precise pellets I have shot from my Benjamin Marauder pistol. Handheld groups are under an inch at 25 yards.

Nothing

These provide superb precision but I have not judged them for effectiveness with rodents. They are a bit more precise than FX Hybrid slugs but the slugs are so effective on rodents I use them for marmot control.

I assume these are good at pest control and, unlike slugs, they hit the same point of aim as other pellets so no adjustments required with your scope.

These pellets are great for hunting. Great shocking power with very good accuracy. The shipping packaging is excellent. Best ive eve seen.

Nothing

Pyramind shipping of pellets is outstanding, keeps me comin back.

Expansion and accuracy

Nothing

I recently bought a Diana 48 in 22 cal. along with 4 different packs of pellets. After testing for accuracy at 20 yards off sandbags these pellets performed the best under .5 inch 5 shot group. This will be a great combo

They fly great in my Benjamin Marauder rifle as well as my pcp pistol. Very accurate.A+A+

Nothing

They hit hard on rodents.

They are accurate and pack a punch

Nothing

Deadly on Iguanas

I'm very pleased with these pellets; both with target accuracy and with expansion of the pellet dome. They are devastating on pest birds.

Nothing

6 in gong target with 3 in sticker target with 1/2 in black paper bulls eye. 24 meter or 27 yard shots from bench rest. i purchased 1000 pellets made in usa and sprayed the target and missed the 6 in gong twice. i have tried many pellets for accuricy. i have shot this pellet 50 rounds at the black 1/2 in bull and everyone hit the bull many in the same hole. after i shot 50 rounds there wass still black bulls eye paper around target and none outside. i used a benjamin pop pistol.after5500 different rounds from many tins i found my dream pellet.

perfection at its very best.nothing

if you are like me and strived for the best/this is it.

Accuracy.

Nothing

If you want accuracy and consistency, this is your pellet!!!!!

Very good consistency and performance. Good lightweight hunting pellet.

Nothing, there are plenty of pellets to choose.

These seem either slightly smaller diameter or to have a more flexible apron so they fit my gun securely without being overly snug. Quieter to shoot then some heavier pellets that fit might gun more tightly. Good accuracy for me.

THE most accurate pellet in my HW100. Under 1/2" at 45 yards consistently.

Very accurate out of my Benjamin Fortitude at 17 yards, 1/4 inch groups all day long. Only found 2 or 3 deformed pellets in a tin of 500. Deadly on small game with only about 50% pass through.

Maybe offer a heavier weight pellet for higher powered airguns.

My Fortitude shoots the Hades 15.89 pellet at 670 fps for 16 ft lbs. On small game like squirrels, it only expands slightly, but is still quite lethal.

I purchased these to use in my Ruger Impact. They hold a good group and the expansion is great.

Nothing

Very accurate in my springer.

Nothing

Shot 2 groups of 0.457"@25M. Rifle is RWS Diana 48.
My RWS 48 seems to like the Hades best of all the pellets I have tested so far.

I wanted to try several types of pellets in my springer. These ended up being tied for the most accurate out of my gun.

Consistency. Accuracy. Expansiveness.

Threaded lid on container. But no big deal, wouldn't want to increase price.

8 chipmunks digging holes in backyard. 9 shots. One miss (my fault, but got it on the follow-up). Humane with no run aways. 25-30 yards, all head shots with Marauder Pistol at factory settings.

Excellent accuracy from a Diana 34. Very good ballistic coefficient and expansion. Took care of a rat problem with one shot. Will be buying more.

Nothing

If you have pest issues you will not be disappointed in these pellets.

These proved to be very accurate in my marauder and I will be ordering more in the near future.

Make different weights

Excellent pellets that hit hard.

The two key pluses of these pellets are accuracy and expansion; few pellets are as accurate as classic Diablos, these are as good or a hair better. And, unlike most hollow point pellets, they consistently expand. Their third virtue would be that they cost the same price as standard pellets.

These pellets may not offer as close tolerances as JSB standard diabolo pellets. But the big issue is their weight, and their loss of energy during flight. Most pellets and slugs are rotationally symmetrical, these are not,; as they spin, the cuts in the tip are like a propeller chewing up the air at the front. This does not have adverse impacts on accuracy, but it slows the pellets faster than typical pellets. So at point of impact, they dump their energy well, but they dont have much energy to dump on longer shots.

The alternative is FX hybrid slugs, which are relatively heavy, hold their energy exceptionally well, are very accurate, and expand even more than these. But they cost over three times as much. A compromise would be a heavier Hades pellet. Id love to see JSB offer a 22 cal Hades with a weight in the 20 grain range!
