New for 2026 hades .177 8.44gr

[ged]

24.35 in, hopefully they'll be better than the 10.34's. though I did have a regal that loved one die but they were impossible to find more of at the time. So I stuck with 7.87 express.

Ooh. I wonder if the lower weight (and therefore higher speed) will improve the deformation as well.

I reckon so, it'll be interesting finding out, i wonder when they'll be released

 

[BrettMRC]

Sounds interesting!

Hopefully they'll be better than the original 177 hades

Throwing shoes at 10 yards targets would be better than the 10.34gr Hades…

And doubt it. JSB lead is soft, but I have never had any pellet or any make deforming that much. Only Mako 10gr slugs deformed in any meaningful way.

I must have a good batch,20 yards at the range can hit the targets nearly dead centre. in .177

Try them at 40 yards

 

[Paynut]

Always had good results with Hades in many of my guns

 

[Nords]

Other cals are fine, just not 0.177”. The bizarre thing is that a 10.34gr ‘heavy’ are routinely perfect…

 

[Horneteer]

Try them at 40 yards

I'd be lucky to even hit the target at that distance. The first 20yds were ok, hopeless after that.
