philpot 4,989 Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Just thinking of getting a tin to try in my 110k sub 12 BUT most of the footage on youtube is based on fac power levels which would be fine if I could buy some .25 for my fac but to be honest I am just interested to try them in sub 12 and with that in mind, has anybody used them to good effect in their sub 12 rifles. I normally use JSB RS pellets which are fine but i am just curious to test some, in fact I may just but a pack of 50 to check groups to start with. Phil Quote Link to post
Jonjon79 13,358 Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 There's no harm in giving them a whirl Phil The most benefit you'll get is that they'll slap and slow down faster in quarry, like the Baracuda Hunter Extreme do because of the greater frontal area - they certainly won't expand at sub 12. Maybe they are geared up more for FAC - I certainly wouldn't want to be shot in the arse cheek with one at 900fps In a recent test with my '77, FTT Green actually gave better accuracy than Hades over 30 yrds But, I do enjoy a bit of pellet testing so, fill yer boots mate .......... if I still had some, I'd send them up 1 Quote Link to post
villaman 9,983 Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Yes Phil I have tried them in sub 12 and had good groups out to 50 yards but still prefer falcon accuracy plus 13.4 gr you need to try them Phil , I might have a few if you would like me to send them up to you 1 Quote Link to post

philpot 4,989 Posted December 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 To be honest, I am quite happy with the JSB RS but as we all get curious from time to rime and linked to that, I only use the 110k at short range, not because it is no good at distance but my go to rifle is the Impact .25 fac so no reason to use the 110k. My thought was that at closer range, would the Hades perform better in terms of opening up it's nose. I have ordered a sample just to try and will proberbly do nothing more than that. I do think that these pellets along with slugs are for fac rifles which have a much bigger market in many countries around the world but sadly not the UK. Phil Quote Link to post
