Things I liked:

Excellent accuracy out of my fx impact. Groups are comparable to JSB exact diabolo 25.39 gr. I used these for hunting. One cottontail rabbit and 8 eurasian collared doves were felled with one shot each. None were headshots, all were pass-throughs. Ranges varied from 20 to 40 yds. Soft tissue damage appeared to be greater than the domed pellets. The impacts were significantly more audible than with traditional domed pellets. I like them and will continue to use them for hunting.

Things I would have changed:

Price. Same as the other reviewers.

What others should know:

I had to re-zero my scope for these. They hit 2 Inches low at 30 yds compared to the JSB 25.39 gr domed. Not certain they actually expand or fragment on game because they were not recovered. Some of the skirts are slightly dinged (in shipping, I presume.) The same shots taken on the same game with domed pellets would have given the same results, most likely. I shot one Eurasian with a .22 FX hybrid slug from my Kral puncher knight. It fell, dead, from the tree also. The slug did not make a loud WHOP like the Hades .25 when they hit a dove.

Things I liked:

None

Things I would have changed:

The Hades were not accurate compared side by side with the Match Kings or the Predator Polymags. I expected them to be almost the same as the kings. Looking at the base, the skirts of the Hades are much thinner which caused many of the skirts to be damaged. They should change the die to improve reliability of shipped pellets.

What others should know:

A large quantity of the pellet skirts are dented and damaged.

    Things I liked:

    A good performing pellet in my Red Wolf Safari. For some reason the FX Atomic performs better out of my particular rifle.

    Things I would have changed:

    Can't think of much here, just a little less $ for what you get.

    What others should know:

    I like this pellet and will use it if I can't get my hands on FX Atomic. And I'm very aware JSB makes those pellets for FX but for some reason the Atomic works better in my Safari barrel. At least in the tins I've shot (around 5 tins Hades and close to 10 Atomic)

    This ammo is amazing. It shoots very well in the Seneca Rifle. We had groupings of quarter size at 50 yards! I am sure the groupings will be similar at even a farther distance. Love the tin they came in.

    Things I liked:

    Nothing yet. But I havent hunted with them and their ability to expand and kill quicker may win me over.

    Things I would have changed:

    In my gun, an FX Impact, these were not nearly as accurate as other pellets, FX and JSB specifically.

    What others should know:

    I havent hunted anything with them as I was not satisfied with their accuracy. FX *exact kings* proved to be very accurate and deadly on pigeons from 40-65 yards so Im not sure I need to use the Hades. I will give them a try before I completely write them off.

    Things I liked:

    They are very good and accurate pellets. Have not had one with any flaws. Great for hunting.

    Things I would have changed:

    Wish you could buy bigger tins with more then 300. However with that being said I also know that they do not make them. So there is nothing negative to report here.

    What others should know:

    They are a awesome pellet! Works amazingly with the Air Venturi Avenger .25. The most accurate that I have found. Can stack them in the same hole in the target one after the other.

    Things I liked:

    I have the Hatsan Bullboss and Bully, both in .25 cal. I've narrowed down my 2 favorite diabolo pellets for them. I like the JSB Hades for shots up to 50 yards which I mostly use the Bullboss for. Over 50 yards, I like my Bully with JSB Exact King Heavy MK2. Both guns love the Hades and are very accurate. Have been using them for a year now and no problems.

    Things I would have changed:

    Availability. Frustrating to have the extra money on hand to stock up and they are sold out. Also, have to go with the crowd and say price. LOL

    What others should know:

    I hear others saying they are not accurate. Some air guns don't like them (a few that are picky) but they are very accurate if your gun does like them. Give them a shot and judge for yourself.

    Things I liked:

    Accurate in my hatsan 155 but started dropping the lever at times, maybe due to the additional weight/recoil.

    Things I would have changed:

    Not sure, maybe a 20-22 gr version

    What others should know:

    These wouldn't seat in my striker, and caused the issue above with the 155, lighter pellets don't drop the cocking lever, although it does save time reloading. Just a defect or weak spring in the rifle.
