JSB Diabolo Exact .35 77,62 Grain, Hatsan BT Carnivore QE .357 PCP Air Rifle,

[Guest]

Okay so I ordered some 100 count tins of the JSB 81 grain .35 pellets and one of our main suppliers sent 2 tins of the 77 grain and one of the 81 grain pellets. I called them up and made them aware of the mistake and I wasn't too concerned as I was going to use them for practice with my Hatsan Carnivore. ( I just sold the Carnivore on Ebay, got a Bulldog ).

But, there is a problem, the 77 grain pellets would fit snug in the magazine but after three shots the remaining pellets would either shift forward or backwards such the the dome or skirt would bind on the breach assembly preventing the magazine from advancing. This problem is not present with the JSB 81 grain pellets, so this is just a headsup to other Carnivore shooters out there that may be sent the wrong pellets, they can't be used in the Carnivore. Hopefully I can use the 77 grain pellets in my Benjamin Bulldog for some practice.

Hey Michael, thanks for the great AG community and for moderating, hopefully, I have placed this notice in the correct section.

I too have a BT65SB QE in .35 and added the Bulldog last week. I found if you push the JSB 81 grain pellets in so they seat snug I have no problems with them shifting in the magazine and jamming the action. I have had no problems in the bulldog with any weight pellets not feeding from 81 grain to 142 grain. I too am selling the BT65S, the Bulldog is superior by far. More FPE and shoots hevier pellets.
