Page 6 - JSB Match Diabolo, .22 Reviews

Great pellets! Seem to be pretty accurate in my Marauder.

Wish they made them in .25 cal.

Might want 2 tins.

My Huntsmen loves them best pellet I ever tried and I tried them all, RWS 54 likes them too, M-rod hates them On the plus I ordered 8000 be for they raise the price. This should last a long time. When JSB changed from Silver to Red labels could not get tight any more

lower price, screw off lid

One shot kills every time. I was thinking I need a 25 but no more.

Works quite well with my Gauntlet at short distances.

lower the cost

Just as accurate as the normal 15.89 or maybe even just a little bit better

Wouldn't know

I think that this pellet is one of the few existing pellets that will do very well in most airguns

very accurate in my gamo swarm magnum. I tried a variety of pellets and these gave 1 inch at 35 yards blowing thru 1/2 inch plywood. This combination gun/pellet might do more damage to squirrels than needed but, that is the squirrels problem, not mine.

screw on lid would be nice.

Great terminal performance on pigeons, starlings and sparrows. Flat trajectory at 900+ FPS. .5-.75 inch groups at 50 yards in my 700mm barreled FX Impact. Looking forward to more testing.

Nothing

These are worth a try.

Clean molding with no flashing. Typical high quality jsb pellets Just as accurate out to 50 yards as the 15.8g jsb domes. I did not shoot beyond that distance but was very happy with the accuracy out of my old school Fx cyclone with lw barrel. Was able to shoot a varmint at 50 yards but still had complete pass thru so I was unable to recover the pellet for a real world examination.

Nothing

Jsb pellets are the universally most accurate brand of pellets. These new hades seem to be just as accurate as the 15.8 and 18.1g...just not sure about terminal performance yet compared to the domes. Have not had enough hunting opportunities as of yet.

After over 1,000 of these pellets through my .22 Wildcat MkII Compact, this is unquestionably the most effective pellet, in .22 cal, for varmint control. This rifle pushes these pelts at 921, average fps, with Sd of less than 3, with clean barrel. While accuracy is very slightly less than the standard 15.9 grain JSB pellets, they are still less than 3/4" at 50 yards, in 8 shot groups. The terminal effect on 15 lbs and smaller varmints is on par with any . 25 caliber pellet, inside 60 yards. They are so very much more effective than ANY other hunting pellet, in .22 caliber, on the market and very accurate too. Tissue performance is too graphic to discuss/display on public forums. If lethality is your primary consideration, look no further. Virtually the same point of impact as the standard JSB 15.9 grain pellets and can be used interchangeably without re-zeroing the rifle.

These are perfection in function and form, for what they are designed to do,,,so nothing needs to be "changed".

If they were any heavier the Wildcat length rifles, could not push them over 875 fps, just like the JSB18.3 Exacts. In side 60 yards the mass/velocity=energy work in perfect balance to deliver the most lethality, within the 60 yard range.

Same profile as the JSB 18s but with that expanding head. Flies true through my FX Revolution and hits hard. Devastating hunting pellet like no other.

Skull and Crossbones printed large on the outside of the tin!

You owe it to yourself to pick up some of these quality pellets!!

Of the four tins of Hades that I purchased the pellets have excellent consistency. Out of my FX Royale 400 and FX Wildcat with the original smooth twist barrels the accuracy is similar to the JSB 18.13 pellets (which is outstanding) out to the 30 yards I can shoot in my backyard. I've used the Hades mostly on Eurasian collared dove, starlings and sparrows and the performance is very impressive. There is a noticeable difference in the terminal performance of the Hades vs standard domed pellets. I'll continue to use the Hades when hunting going forward.

Not much, overall an excellent product.

Very consistent round. Slowly starting to feel this pellet is more accurate then the 18.13 JSB out of my fx Streamline.I have had confirmed small game hits 75 to 100 m . That left them sitting up wondering what hit them . I am Canadian and these are pricey to obtain and I feel worth every dime .

I wish they made a Hades 18.13 round . Think they have found a winner. I would like to see bulk pack 1000 to 2500 offered. Order for the year.

Harder to find ,buy in bulk

Accurate, well made, consistent, & accurate pellet.

Screw top tins!

These pellets are supposed to be the same as the JSB 18g pellet, but with bio-hazard head, making them 15.89g. Point of impact is almost the same @ 25yds as the heavier 18g JSBs. I've not yet been able to see how well their unique head works on game.

Accuracy, lethality, fast energy dumping and Pyramid's packaging is the BEST I've encountered!

Lower price

I primarily hunt pigeons inside dairy barns and JSB 15 & 18 Diablo's were very accurate out to 100 yds in my Streamline. The bad thing is the pellets usually penetrated their body and not all first shots dropped them immediately. Over penetration often caused damage to the steel roof. Not so with the Hades. They drop the pigeon on the first shot in the DRT (Dead Right There). We've shot hundreds and have yet to see an exit hole. Accuracy actually surpasses the Diablo's and the sound they make on impact is unique. You can tell by the WHACK that its dumping far more energy into the bird. In the long run, these are lower cost than all others due to their extremely efficient stopping power on the first shot. JSB has a winner.

these pellets work extremely well as a hunting pellet. they are lighter than what I normally use so they tend to shoot a bit different. but once I got used to it they have been really good. I have also noticed that they dont seem to go through the animal like my other pellets do and they hit really hard.

I think the only thing I would change is maybe make the skirt a little bigger. I normally use barracuda match pellets and the skirts seem a little bigger. the only reason I bring this up is I do tend to get a few more fliers. I use a Benjamin Marauder .22

not that I can think of at this time.

I love the accuracy and the stopping power of these pellets. They seem to be a great hunting pellet out to 30 yards so far.

A more reasonable price but they seem on par with the 25.39 gr JSB's

I have my heavily modified marauder pushing these at 1050fps. I was switching back and forth the other day with the 25.39 gr JSB's in my small 13 yard indoor range and the POI was exactly the same for both pellets. I was amazed to get over 40 FPE from such a light pellet. When I first started shooting them my gun was shooting a little hot and it was shooting them at 1100 fps! The accuracy seems to be great, I haven't had a chance to do much further than 25 to 30 yards yet. I think this will be my new pesting pellet if the winds are not too bad or if I find it will buck the wind.

My son has shot these through his kral puncher breaker, which loves them. Very tight groups. Performance on pests has been amazing. Eurasian doves drop in a puff of feathers. Sparrows "pop", and ground squirrels roll over. Upon recovey of the doves, we have not yet found a pellet, they all exit and apparently have fragmented when hitting bone. More than one exit hole has been found. Highly recommended for pesting and small game.

Make them in .25. Lower price? (as always).

Try them out. As accurate as the jsb 18 gr in the kral and more lethal.

I like the fact that I can drill a dime size hole at 35 yards, my streamline seems to like them.

Nothing!

I feel that these pellets will give the other JSB's a run for the money. It sure worked great in my FX SL . Saving these for critter's.

Good accross several guns.

Look loke the 18.13 with the cutting on the head.
