Hades

[crowski]

Been spending more time shooting daily. Today I gave my HW80k .25 a few laps on my range. Here’s 5 shots same hole 25 yds. Same hole with the Hades 26.54 grain. Really like this round.

Anyone that doesn’t think a springer .25 calibre is not gonna do the job might wanna rethink that.. Deadly accurate. The more I shoot the .25 cal. springer the more hungry I get for it.
In .22 the Hades is the same weight as the 15.89 JSB. Last week I got 2 tree rats with the Hades .22 with my HW98 (sweet as the LGU). First one,brain shot over quick. 
Second one I had a perfect side shot 15 yds. My 98 was smiling. Squeezed the trigger I saw the shot hit the water 15 yds. behind Rocky. At first I thought I missed then I realized more than lead hit the water. Hades did it’s job. 
In .177 I have my 97kt permanently set up to shoot Hades, and it’s mean. 

Really like the Hades as a hunting pellet hits hard with deadly accuracy. Crow

They are an interesting pellet. As many AGN members have likely noticed, all of my rifles get tested for best group performance with several different pellets each (usually 8-10 different pellets). My HW80 and AA S410, both in .22, actually prefer the Hades over any other pellet in .22. Would not have predicted that to be the case with either rifle.

I got my my 1st order of Hades .25 pellets in December of 2019 for my Royale 500. Since then I have used nothing else with that gun. More accurate than the JSB pellets the gun was designed around. VERY few pass throughs & supreme accuracy. Not so much when I tried them in my Boss .30 cal. Just OK in the Boss but not the kind of precision as in my Royale.

I have never tried these but all .25s I've shot in HN, Beeman, and the "standards" never disappointed.

I have the .25 HW80 and the HW98 .25 and HW95L .25.

It seems .25 is addicting and pleases me more than most to shoot. 

The springers are always accurate but in PCP the way the pressurization works to "cool" instead of "heat" the air behind the pellet makes PCP air rifles less efficient than the air springer which HEATS air upon operation! The bore is fried and dried for the next pellet to repeat the same thing.

Don't clean your air rifle bores: they shoot themselves into performance just like the dirty bored .22 LR in an Olympic Match.

A person can ruin their rifle by cleaning it just to see dirty patches scraping away embedded lubrication to make the surfaces grab even more surface area on the cylindrical pellet.

Never clean your fine air rifles!

Kindly,

Yeah all of that is nonsense.
