I have not tried that pellet but the JSB Exact Monster 25.39 gr. does not shoot well in my Diana 34  .22 !  It seems that the H&N Baracuda & Beeman Kodiak @ 21.14 gr. is as heavy as my rifle will shoot accurately.  The Monsters are all over the place.  Maybe the super heavies  work better in the magnum rifles, I'm sure you'll hear from some of them.

WOW!  Those 2 weights are heavy for the little RWS34 spring/seal.  Wonder if they break 600fps.
Those weights work better in a PCP.  Have you tried pellets in the 13-16 range?  Lots easier on the rifle.

Both got an average of 563 over 10 shots.  The Beeman's high was 571 and the H&N's was 573.  I  found that the Beeman Silver Arrow (17.13 gr) and the JSB Exact (15.90 gr) work very well too.
