Has anybody heard when the JSB .35 Hades will be available at retailers? It appears that they are availble on the JSB Czech website but I don’t know if they would ship to the U.S.
JSB Hades .35

I can't find them anywhere else but JSB will ship to you. Shipping cost is $45.90 whether you buy 1 box or 16. If you buy 17 boxes the shipping jumps to $85.
Let us know how it goes and how they shoot.

Could you please list the link for the Hades .35 cal direct from JSB? I looked for the Hades in that caliber and was unable to find them.

Buying in bulk of 16 tins, 50 pieces per tin, at the current exchange rate amounts to just under $230.00, and comes out to $0.29 per round. That is probably a few cents cheaper than what we are going to get them for when they eventually start sending the big pallets State side to the retailers. It may be easier to get them directly from the manufacturer for the time being.

I ordered six tins direct from JSB Diabolo January 30. They arrived state side on February 27, processed through USPS ISC New York PO and are still there, according to USPS tracking. Have no idea what the hold up is. Waiting for a reply from USPS.

Sounds like a customs issue. I had a return back to Krale, and it took a full month before it left customs. It was literally just sitting in a warehouse for a freaking month until it CLEARED customs.

Update: After being held up at ISC USPS New York for 39 days, they had finally made it to Wash DC distribution center this Friday. I’m about 65-70 miles west of DC. According to USPS tracking, I have received four different notifications and four different departure times from there (DC) in the last two days. Seems kinda weird.
I’m anxious to get them on the bench with my Impact .35 600mm. Will make an excellent blind/brush gun. I do have some standard JSB domes but been really looking forward to the Hades, especially since turkey season is among us. Next, Hybrid slugs whenever FX can get them figured out. Seen them offered at Krale and Airgunslugs Australia sites but “out of stock”. Wonder if that means they had them and sold out or are waiting for the initial.

Just as you did with JSB to get the .35 Hades, you may try ordering them directly from Sweden.

By the time the Hybrids get here, they may be available in the states, if they take as long as the Hades. Who knows. They may be held up in customs as long as the Hades were. Hard to tell at this point.

Ok, they finally made it! Took 74 days from JSBDiabolo, Czech Rep. 39 of which were stranded in NY USPS. Lol. I have a 600mm barrel on the Impact MKII. Reg at 140bar hammer maxed, valve adjuster wide open and getting 825 fps avg. 10 shot string spread of 5, SD 2.1. I’m not 100% on this but I think they advertised these at SHOT for being 76 point sumpn sumpn grains. Anyhow they appear to be less precision made than the domes, possibly a different lead, idk. I only have 45 yds in my back yard but they fared pretty well. Of course I had to pull the last one. That’s airgunning!

They definitely appear to have been abused a bit somewhere along the line. The tone and sheen on the metal is noticeably brighter.
I always enjoyed this particular design in my .25 Marauder. Deadly design.

I’m sure they went through hell to get here. The shipping box was indented on one whole edge but only one tin was slightly dented. The pellets inside didn’t look all that bad. They are 100ct tins, not 50 as advertised on the JSB Diabolo website. Including shipping, the price per 100 is $21.67 so considering, not a bad price. But the wait……Lol I was almost thinking maybe I should have just waited until retailers had em. But then again, they would probably sell out like crazy. I think it’s even difficult to find the domes right now. Acording to a converter app on the phone, 5.000 grams is 77.16 grains. Looks like they still don’t have their labeling sorted out yet either.

@DougH. Glad to see them finally arrive safe and somewhat sound. They don't look they shoot too bad either! If you don't mind, blow a couple threw some milk jugs and post pictures of their expansion. I'm curious as to the difference in expansion based on the weight of these .35's as compared to the .22 and the .30 calibers.

I haven’t had a chance to test expansion yet but this guy has. Check it out

Thanks for the video post @DougH. It appears that they will perform spectacular in medium-sized critters.
