They are deadly while hunting.. I have bought many of the bottom tins and found these on fleabay..
 It looks like someone bought the patent for them here and are marketing them without the JSB logo..

Ya I saw those new polymags when I went down to Columbia last week, at Sportsman's Warehouse. I had thought that JSB had changed there label..:) Since I do not hunt much, I do not use them but I do have a good supply of .22 and .177, so when I get the urge...:)

Thanks for the info Randall

I just looked on Pyramid and they are listed as a JSB product.

I see that also but if ya go to the Predator site. no mention of Jsb..  Wierd hu..  Also they do not put jsb on the can anymore...  I think someone has purchased the rights to these pellets...  and the price is outragous... Also if ya go to the Jsb site They do not offer them anymore...

I just ordered a tin of those a couple of days ago just to see what they are like.  I have better luck with match pellets accuracy than any other shape.  I 'whil' try them, but they will have to be amazingly accurate for me to buy more.

Good to hear they are the same.  BTW, I was just in Long Island at the Steinway factory earlyy October.  I had so much free time it would have been nice to have known there was an airgun store around at the time.

I checked both tins, and to me, they are the same pellets. The JSB line says "Made in Czech Republic" dot "Assembled in Hungary". The newer tins just say "Made in Hungary". Perhaps Predator International had a contract with JSB to jump start their line of hunting pellets. Maybe Pred-Intnl is a subsidiary company of JSB?!?!?!? But to be frank, I could care less. These are really good pellets with a nice weight and design, and they really get the job done!!!!!!! Predators Friggin' RULE!!!!!!! Yeah, tjk
