    Any good or bad feedback on the current batches please.
    The batches are just batches of pellets. They are neither " good " or " bad ". it is your barrel that is the determining factor and not the pellet. Just buy a tin and test it in your barrel. That is the only way to tell. What works for one does not work for the other so one can not generalise it.

    Thanks for your reply, my barrel likes jsb and as I said in a previous post I bought a huge stock in 2014 of which are coming to an end and wanted to know if they were still top quality as things do change. But yes a test Tin is the way buddy.
    I will leave the others to the press n die garb as its wasting time I could spend sleeping 🤣🤣🤣
    thanks again.

    A die that is good in one type/make of barrel is usually good in others of the same type, it's not guaranteed, but there is a trend.

    Steyr bucks the trend as there seem to be a few types, and what suits lothar walther barrelled guns such as the Air Arms range, don't always suit BSA or Weihrauch and vica versa.

    Brian Samson has been doing some experiments on visitors to his range with different dies and batches. Some interesting findings are coming out, although there are always some oddball guns.

    Good luck with your search for a good batch, but I think there are a lot of decent batches at the moment.
