I’m not sure about you… But I’m pretty excited to try these!

Looks like a good size chunk of lead. I'm guessing your going to be shooting them out of a PCP.
I think they would be fun to test in one of my springers. I also wonder what type of velocity I could get out of my 2240 CO2 pistol.

Damn that is a beat up pellet !!! Handling, shipping certainly has had it's way with them as they don't come out of the dies looking like that !!

Here's one recovered from an iguana at 57yds going about 880fps. Whoops, initially put up the wrong pictures, here are the expansion pics.

I'm a little surprised there is still such a market for very heavy hunting pellets. I figure if you can push those to adequate speed, why not just shift to slugs and reap the benefits of much better BC and arguably much better expansion. Just my thoughts. And certainly not bashing Hades/Atomics. They have been my go-to hunting pellets for years now in 22, but in the 16gn OG variant.

Over penetration, ricochet , more difficult to get the same accuracy and the vast majority of people I would guess hunt within ranges the slugs don’t really matter.

I’m curious about the 34 gr .25 cal ones. I thought they were supposed to release this year ?

I would love to try them but the price has steered me away. I bet they would do some nice work at ~980fps out of my Impact.

Me too, where are these 34 grain Heavy Hades .25 caliber pellets I read about?
