I finally got a bottle of these ( Hero Outdoors 4 week delivery) They are also at D&L Airguns and Crosman Canada

As Tom Gaylord mentioned, they seem to be equal to the good accuracy of the Hornady Black Diamond .In my tests with Umarex Brodax, Daisy 840 Grizzly and Umarex Morph that is my opinion also. I can't measure or weigh them properly but may be just a smidgen more in diameter and weight. Being less widely available than the Hornady, you can decide on the expense of a purchase.I wonder why Canadian Tire, which has so many Crosman products, does not stock them.

I'm still sold on the Hornady Black Diamond BBs. About half the price of the Black Widows once you factor in cost and quantity sold (1,500 vs. 1,000). And Black Diamonds are available in a lot more locations, both in store (inc. Cabela's) & online.

I use Black Diamonds in all my higher end BB guns & all full auto BB guns, and never had a jam. So don't have a reason to switch.

I only use black diamonds. I switched away from copper coated as it was leaving copper residue all of my guns. They’re smoother and work well.

My mini review is a comparison of the black coated Hornady and Crosman . I also use Umarex bbs which are as efficient for me.
