    I'm very interested in the outcome of this, I have a tin of JSB Exacts 4.51 that are shooting all over the place, unfortunately I don't have anything that will weigh them accurately.

    Here's the batch number. 1020014 at 4.52 is that what you want,,,fella,,,,,,,,,,pops

    I got the tin from my club stock of pellets to do a test on my new HuMa regulator with but the readings were all over the place ,being a good brand of pellets ,yeah right, but having weighing them I was , well not happy . I have RWS super domes and they are great but as for the JSBs must be a bad batch and who said that air arms pellets and JSBs are the same I'm not sure on that one.The only thing I've seen bad about A/A pellets is the damaged one in the tin.

    In the hope of in part answering your question I weighed 30 pellets from one of my tins of JSB Exact Pellets Batch Number 44000013, cal 4.53 mm, and obtained the following results using a "My Weigh i201" balance and a " Pact Digital Precision Powder Scale". Each pellet was weighed sequentially on the two machines in the order of : My Weigh/Pact

    8.3/8.4 8.3/8.5 8.4/8.4
    8.3/8.4 8.3/8.3 8.4/8.3
    8.3/8.4 8.3/8.5 8.5/8.4
    8.4/8.4 8.5/8.6 8.5/8.5
    8.4/8.3 8.3/8.3 8.3/8.3
    8.3/8.5 8.5/8.6 8.3/8.3
    8.3/8.4 8.4/8.3 8.3/8.3
    8.5/8.4 8.3/8.3 8.5/8.5
    8.4/8.5 8.4/8.5 8.5/8.5
    8.4/8.3 8.5/8.4 8.4/8.4

    Weights are in grains to one DP and at the end of the exercise the weights for the total sample on each of the balances in sequence was 252.6/253.0 gns.

    The results look fairly consistant to me considering the use of "home user" grade weighing equipment, all but 8.4 gn +/- 0.1 gn.

    Thanks for that and your effort in this, it's very good of you ,so with this I must have a very bad tin full ,
    But what I can't understand is its nearly all the tin not just say 50 or 60 pellets but 90% of them ?? Don't
    get it ?? Pops
