Took out this small field mouse at 30 yards with my FX Maverick in 25 caliber. I had just installed the Saber tactical butt stock and was outside at night getting it adjusted for use with my Oneleaf NV100 night vision unit. Low and behold I see a tiny set of beady eyes staring at me in a woodpile. Threw a mag in and sent an Atomic pellet his way moving at 910fps. Mouse was facing me and took a direct hit between the eyes. You can see the results below, total devastation!

Holy Crap...
Also, may I ask what you are using to keep that Oneleaf adapter steady? It looks much cleaner than the OEM duct tape it's provided with.

I bought the unit used from a gentleman in the forum. He had 3D printed an adapter to use with the 48mm mounting ring. It works perfectly!Holy Crap...

I would say that was instant death. Are the atomic pellets the same as JSB Hades? They sure look like it. I have some Hades. I'm going to have to try them out and see if I can replicate that kind of destruction. I wonder who hades work better than polymags.

Since we’re doing blown up mice, I turned this one into a rug at 60 yards with a 32gr .25 slug going over 1,000fps. I usually don’t find them the next day. Just red particles.

Yup, Atomics are the same pellet as Hades. I use both, whatever is in stock at the time I order lol.

Very nice, I hate mice…
I shot a woodchuck many years ago that was laying down facing me with a Sierra 52 gr hpbt out of a 22-250 and it looked about like your mouse. It was only about 50 yards away.

Gnarly! Uh...where is the rest of him?
A little on that branch up there, a bit on the patio over there, I think I see a left knee on the neighbors roof over yonder.
