I'm shooting the 15.9 grain JSB Hades at 900 FPS, the 18 grain JSB Heavy at 830 FPS. With no wind the Hades shoot pretty darn good. With wind the 18 grain Heavies are much better. Is anyone shooting the Hades in the wind with good results?

Hades in the wind?

Each gun and barrel are different. I shot the 18.13 at 880(their best speed) and the Hades at 930( their best speed) in my Crown at 90 yards in the wind. Both did well quarter or so once I got the wind doped, that was the problem. Until vertical was OK but the horizontal was the problem. Funny to me was I needed to speed the Hades up to get the group the best.

I usually don’t shoot further than 30-35yards, so any wind at ~ 850fps it’s negligible and will find it’s mark at the Squirrel’s head without much problem. But I have shot them at 100 yards and didn’t group as well as even the 16gr Diabolo JSB.
