bunny tickler 876 Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 jsb all the way with me ,but as said each & every barrel has its own preference ,try them all out then stick with what your gun likes Quote Link to post
flynndog 543 Posted May 2, 2015 Report Share Posted May 2, 2015 Ive just looked at my tins and 2 of 4 tins were the same .... thin I'm going back to h&n ftt or accupel again Quote Link to post
logan esq 99 Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 just gone throu a new tin a jsb exacts, only one was damaged. so i'm thinking maybe there was just a massive batch that were dud ones. granted thats only one tin out of three that have been ok. atb Quote Link to post
jonnie bravo 572 Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 On a bit of a side note I've just finished a tin of 4.51 exacts, they were quite loose to fit in the barrel, some more than others. Just opened a tin of 4.52 and they are a much tighter fit. Not seeing any real change in accuracy but doesn't feel right! Anyone else experienced this? Quote Link to post
Arron yeates 2 Posted May 3, 2015 Report Share Posted May 3, 2015 Ive just received my ordered jsb exact diabolo 4.53mm ill be testing them out over the next few days in my ultra se to dee what they are like. Ive tried jsb 4.50,4.51,4.52.... the 4.52 were the best group but im hoping these 4.53mm are better. All seem ok at quick glimse.. also if your keen on your jsb range but not happy with the skirts. Try daystate soverign rangemaster... there jsbs special hand picked pellets. Only thing im nit sure about is if there 4.50.. 4.51... or 4.52... 1 Quote Link to post
jonnie bravo 572 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Well down the range last night with the exact 4.52's. Shots were all over the place, thought it was me so really concentrated on technique. Still going all over. Thought it was maybe the scope, not the scope. Think my prosport hate's the 4.52's, back to 4.51's I think Quote Link to post

On another note, the lead in JSB and AA's is so soft, as we know, but there is something about them when popping into the breech. Ive just got some H&N FTT's for the Fenman which are 4.50, they are tighter in the barrel than a ducks arse, where as JSB 4.52's are a perfect fit, due to the softness of the lead. Quote Link to post
jonnie bravo 572 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 I think my barrel is either slightly tighter or less worn maybe? I can feel the 4.52's scraping the rifling as they go in, the 4.51's are so much smoother. 1 Quote Link to post
Rez 4,961 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 You have a tight barrel... How you getting on with that Genesis? Good choice. Im guessing its nice on that PS. Quote Link to post
jonnie bravo 572 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Ooh err... Not tried it yet, only tonight have I bothered to actually fit it in the rifle! First impressions are good, nice clear image, love the reticle. Like the parallax adjustment too, much less bulky than AO but a less fiddly than messing about with the locking ring on the objective lens. My kind of scope, set it and leave it. Thinking of getting some bkl mounts though, I think the bisley sportsmatch I have on at the min are canting it a little :/ Quote Link to post
silver back 5 Posted May 9, 2015 Report Share Posted May 9, 2015 Looks like jsb have solved this issue by bringing out a new premium pellet that is hand picked and weighed https://youtu.be/mo3U9TVcotA Quote Link to post
jonnie bravo 572 Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Just to update this thread. Went down the range tonight the 4.52's were spot on turns out I'd over lubed them so dried them off and picked out any bent skirts and the groups were unreal 5 pence piece at 20yds. But, there were a lot of damaged pellets. Definitely going to try the express and RS 1 Quote Link to post
Hw100bob 0 Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 I bought a tin last week and half the tin was damaged ! Poor show from jsb ! Quote Link to post
