FX 22 caliber 25.39 are they as good as the JSB monster redesigned?

Check out page two in the Pellets section. 2 threads talking about them. My thought are in one of them.

I think I might be the only person that doesn’t like the new search function. Not sorting by date seems to be making the search function almost useless to me.

Exact same pellets but probably a different batch....Air Arms, FX, Edgun, JSB all come from the same place using the same dies!!! Different batches have slightly different variances in all 4 mentioned above!

They do come from the same place, but can be very different! I don’t know if different batches mean they changed dies? But they are even very different visually, especially the skirt depth and for me, shoot very different, same with AA, so I would take a good look and try them?

Actually I believe they all have different dies. I know AA and Edgun are different dies than JSB but made at JSB. They are indeed different. Not sure about FX but likely different dies as well but who knows.

I decided to buy some FX pellets in the 18 gr weight and already have some new JSB 18 gr (.22 cal.)
What I can say for sure is that the FX are much tighter pushing into the breach plus I had notable tighter group's at 50 yrds.
Also a 2 fps loss at the muzzle with the FX.
I will be using the FX for sure. I have some 16 gr on the way tox try and compare to the JSB.

Yeah that's what I hear too, made in same place with each their own dies with slight variances.

Well if you watched Steve's video from the JSB factory there are no different die for specific brands...only different batches which could mean a die change along the way...but no special treatment for different rebranding...

Well unless these aren't true?? I doubt it. Both Edgun and AA state they are made by JSB using there own dies. Why would they lie? Not calling Steve a liar but maybe there was some mix-up there.
