    Mr Gain,
    glad to hear they work for you but you're using them FAC so that's to be expected,
    re your BC question I'd be inclined to think they'll be more like the H&N extreme 0.0263, than the smooth dome exact at 0.0310, have you asked JSB for their figure?

    It was intended as a "snap shot” just to get an impression. Sorry I didn’t have the time today for a more prolonged session with the chrono.

    That stock is superb, reminds me of those late FWB300SUs.

    Many thanks riku. It's a CS500. You can get them in different flavours: https://www.customstock.co.uk/produc...r-rifle-stock/

    It's heavy though but suits me.

    I grabbed a few minutes for a few more shots with the .22 Hades. Slapped a sticky target on a sawn off tree trunk and the rangefinder said 24 metres. Used the same zero as for AA Field Diabolo.
    Shot from a bag on the bonnet of my motor car. There are ten shots in this group.

    Results show the Hades are pretty good out of this gun. Gun: Weihrauch HW80k Tinbum tuned.

    Any opinions please?

    Fine shooting with an 80, better than I am with my old Webley Mk3 at half the distance .

    I tried the H&N extremes in my FAC rapid and found them rather poor, PCP, pellet fussy tackdriver- ect-yawn I'd expect that or better at 70yds.

    The radioactive dimple kinda puts me off:like the extremes as a fraction less up front means more weight at the back.

    Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try checking the trajectory against that BC too.

    Clearly not. But it's a very good idea!

    The 13.7 grain JSB heavy in .20 I've found to be really good. OK they are better from an FAC rifle where they are my first choice but also good at legal limit if the 11.4 grain FTT for some reason don't suit the barrel..
