JSB Match Diabolo, .22 Reviews

Shipment from Pyramid air was great packaged well. 5 stars for Pyramid Air, but 1 star for JSB. Quality of JSB pellets has gone downhill seems like 1 out of 10 pellets have deformed skirts. The pellets have to come factory with defects as the tins they came in are pristine condition.

Better quality control from factory.

You straighten skirts with a 1/4 stereo male jack adapter by pushing back of skirts outwards.

straight and accurate.

None

they are awesome pellets for hunting small game and pest.

Shipping speed, packaging is always great, usually never have to wait on backorders, awesome folks !

As everyone says wish prices were better but that's the world we live in

I haven't found a better place for my air gun needs

Excellent service, I like the speed and how the package is protected, I like the promotion of paying 3 and receiving 4. Congratulations, keep it up.

Shot the tightest groups of eleven different pellets out of my Gama Mach 1 at 23 yards. Reasonably priced, especially if you buy the 500 count tin.

Make the lid a screw-top.

Next best pellet groups for my Mach 1: Gamo Red Fire and H&N Terminator

Good quality, relatively good pellet consistency & excellent accuracy in my Norica Dragon with its tight chamber. These pellets are tough & hit quite hard with good penetration characteristics. They are a viable alternative to a standard domed pellet. The sharp frontal grooves MAY provide some cutting action in game tissue, but likely not much...

Complete lack of ANY expansion/petaling performance in any target media I've tried out of three different air rifles (Norica Dragon, Crosman Vantage & Hatsan 95). These pellets simply DO NOT perform as designed or advertised, at least out of my guns. Performance on a large gray squirrel was OK, but no better than a normal pellet in my opinion. Don't buy these believing the hype, because it's not there, at least at subsonic velocities, performance-wise.

Don't believe the hype, or you are likely to be disappointed. If you can snag a really great deal, they are a good domed alternative; otherwise, don't waste your money in my opinion. They are more costly, but the Predator Metalmags, also made by JSB, appear to be a much more legitimate hunting pellet design based on my testing so far...as always though, your mileage may vary.

They are super accurate out of my air Venturi avenger 22 and do the job well on ground squirrels.

They shot good in all my air rifles

Cost ,,lol

Wiry all air rifles buy in,bulk when you can because when you first get a air rifle your gonna go threw alot of pellets to break the gun in plus sighting it in as well

They're ok, pretty accurate is a few guns, not the most accurate at long range... They hit hard, and expand well with some power behind them...

Nothing I can think of, I'm sure there perfect in some guns...

I have over 20 guns, not "perfect" in any of them, in any caliber, I would hunt with them at close range, iffen that's all I had...

I love the way they expand Price is fair

Skirts are soft, but that’s probably what helps them expand.

Buy bulk - cart 4 pay for 3 is great!

Great pellet in my Gamo Swarm Mag Gen 2. Cycled perfectly in the Swarm unit when I had that on the rifle but removed it for my own, personal reasons.

Nothing.

Works well in my Gamo Mag at 890 fps and 28 fpe. Very, very accurate in this rifle rivaling FX 18 grain domed which is the best pellet in the gun. Polymag definitely hits harder but less accurate and also costs quite a bit more.

I tested these in ballistics gel, and they did actually expand at 808 fps (average chronograph measurement). Your results may vary based on velocity at impact and the medium you are shooting.

No damaged skirts not oily great expansion tight groups

Nothing

Worth the money excellent pellet great expansion even at lower fps

My Benjamin Trail Nitro Piston Elite seems to like these. Finally got a decent grouping.

Wish the lid was a screw on type, but it holds ok. The price was pretty steep with shipping.

Already smoked a squirrel and a few birds

they seem to be very clean leaving little lead in the bore. i popped a crow in the chest about 40 yds away and hit his on-off switch dead center with my hatsan flash qe. he went straight down to the dirt nap.

Devistating hunting or pesting pellet. Fairly accurate out of a cheap Crpsman Nitro Piston break barrel with 28 FPE. Leshiy 2 barrel is extremely accurate with these Hades/Atomic pellets when the power turned up to 900 to 1030 FPS range. Will turn a ripe Beefsteak Tomato inside out with the shockwave at higher speeds; placed at 25 yards and under 1100 FPS mussel speed. Average weight of 40 random pellets tested to be 18.93 grains and 18.97 grains out of the two tins I tested from

Price per tin could be lower, prices have gone up several times over the years.

If you need a shorter range hunting pellet for small game and varmints, you might want to try a tin out to see if they are accurate in your airgun, remember to try different power settings if you can to find out what FPS the barrel twist rate likes, at too slow or fast a speed any pellet or slug will start to become unpredictable.

My avenger likes these pellets better than anything else I've shot and have taken several squirrels with them. They do expand very well.

They are accurate and l use them for Iguana hunting

Nothing

Extremely accurate and hard hitting from my Air Venturi Avenger was actually recommended by airgun ambassador at Pyramyd Air, very uniform and well packaged nice looking pellet.

nothing,

accurate , and hard hitting , great hunting and target pellet, works well on wood chucks
