    Had plans to shoot so much more but between herding small people and autumn weather theres not been much chance. By the time I'd set up this morning it was starting to spit again so this was 10 shots straight from the bag, Hades .177, benched HW110 with 4x32 Vantage+ @ 30m.

    Be good. And if you can't be good, be good at being bad.

    I use 21.4 grain Bisley Magnum aka Baracudas in my FAC Rapid but I've been pretty pleased with Hades at lower FAC power levels. I have only tried the .22 but honestly I can't really say whether they are any better than the standard Exact. Theoretically they should be a bit more effective at dumping their energy in the target but as they seem to be as accurate as the Exacts, are the same weight 15.9 grain and don't cost any more they are worth using.

    Yes they were ok on the rats. But not any better than any other pellets. Hobby in .22 for rats were still better.

    I recently bought a 1983 HW80 in immaculate condition.

    I also bought a dozen .22 trial pellet packs. Surprisingly it didn't think much of the Air Arms, Weirauch or JSB Exact pellets but guess what.......Hades were the best! Closely followed by Crosman Premiers.

    How are others getting on with them?
