So even when they were used in my rifle, where there was a clear bore to head size mismatch, these pellets still performed very well at shorter ranges. I have traced the wound channel on several pigeons and in every case the channel is considerably bigger than any other pellets Ive used ensuring cleaner kills.

This shoot was conducted from a covered firing point on an overcast day in light, intermittent rain and with no wind at all.

It looks worse than this in the photo, but that’s because the Hades pellets lived up to their name and tried to send my 20-yard Target Spot to hell, smashing through the card and fragmenting the target.

Since then, I've used them in the TX200HC and a BSA R10SE as well and they are spot on in all of them with tight groups out as far as I would ever be shooting them.

JSB Hades combines the aerodynamic shape of Exact pellets for the best accuracy and a specially designed hollow point design for the best hunting effect. Ideal for Sub 12 or FAC shooters, this pellet has a special fragmented head that expands on impact and is designed to import more shock into the target you are shooting at. I am only estimating the speed though as the 25 at 890 is what my gun chronies at so I guestimated the others.

This means that The Sportsman Gun Centre offers the highest available levels of trust and authentication. Designed to maximise expansion on impact, these are ideal for those looking for a quick and effective hunting shot that you can rely on every time.

For the heck of it I loaded up a mag and shot them through my Veteran which were probably close to 1000 fps. It was raining and we were sitting in his garage shooting at the target 38 yards away plus at various objects farther away at 60 70 yards etc. Thanks to the specially shaped head, the front part of the pellet is easily deformed and it does not shoot the target, but transmits the maximum amount of kinetic energy.

pellets are highly accurate, high-impact and perfect for hobbyists, hunters and match shooters alike. variant back in Airgun Shooter issue 133, finding them accurate as well as hard-hitting, and it was now time to see whether that claim held true for . feet per second over a 10-shot string, another excellent result, again proving how well these pellets are made.
