IN STOCK! JSB Diabolo Exact King Heavy, .25 Cal, 33.95 grn, 150ct @ Pyramyd Air

Thanks for the heads up, I just ordered some. After last weekend I am down to my last 3 tins of edgun branded 33.95s.

I'll report back once I get these if they're actually mk1s or mk2s in a mk1 tin. 

They must have got a decent sized shipment in, a friend just said he got an email from pyramyd that his several month old backorder for 20 tins of JSB .25 25.4s just shipped.

It’s believable. This is the second time within a week I’ve seen these pellets available. Last time it I think it was for the 300 count tins 25.39 grain pellets. I’ve waited a couple of months for a shipment before so that doesn’t sound unusual for Pyramyd conducting commerce under COVID constraints. 
 
If anyone gets any of these, please report if they are actually the Mk2 or the real King Heavy... Thanks,

These 150ct pellets are certainly different than what I already have on the shelf.

Pellets from the new shipment 150ct tins have a different skirt shape and a much shallower cavity than the edgun branded pellets. The edgun pellets appear to be mk1, the new shipment appears to be mk2 in mk1 tins...

My edgun pellets are from an old shipment, not sure if current production edgun 33.95s are mk1 or mk2.

Hope my R5M shoots the Mk2 well... 
 
Yup yup. Ole JSB continues the Big Lie. You just got Mk2 in King Heavy (Mk1) tins. I wonder if the EDGun Heavies that Brian has at EDW are like the ones you have on the right?

Haven’t had much time to shoot over the past couple of months but there’s a difference between the skirts on the pellet’s in my .25 King Heavies and my .25 King Heavies Mark II. What I have noticed is that the skirts are narrower on one than the other.
 
When I get home I'll check my invoices and see when I ordered those edgun 33.95 Mk1's, but my hunch is sometime in 2017-2018.

Brian hasn't had any edgun branded 33.95s in stock for a while, but I'm going to guess any new shipment he receives will be Mk2's...

I feel bad for the people that have guns that shoot the mk1's accurately but not the mk2's. I may be in that crowd as well, I have not tested the mk2's in my R5M yet.
 
They also have the AA branded 350 count

25.4 grain 25 cal

@18-13 I'm unsure if you're implying that AA pellets are re-branded JSBs. If so, please take a look at this 2015 post of an AGN member claiming that the content is from an email from "Claire West (managing director of Air Arms)." In response to his email she claims that Air Arms pellets use different dies than JSBs and are thus different pellets. https://www.airgunnation.com/topic/jsb-vs-air-arms-pellets-are-they-the-same/

If you have current or more recent information on this please share because I don't know any more about it than I have read. Also in your experience, performance-wise, is there a close similarity between JSB and Air Arms pellets?
