Right, this one has taken a while to make, so much to learn and test.
This is my results, every rifle is different - but after 6 weeks this is the science I have.
For all you nuclear scientists out their, I did not go to Cambridge or Bolton University - but…..I can tell you -
Sub 12, yep they are accurate for hunting, they hit harder than an 8.44g pellet, no they don’t fragment in water - unless you are shooting high power and then they split apart like an orange. Am sure someone will post hunting footage of these in the future.
I would however in High Power still use the Hades .22 15.89 or the .25 version - why wouldn’t you if you had the choice.
UK - Yep - you now have a new choice of hunting pellet for .177
UK - Just be aware depending on your rifles valving will depend on how well they push that extra weight.

Well said.
Just bought my first air gun since I was 10...or 45 years ago. I have really enjoyed watching your videos.
ROFLOL "Muppets looking to get offended"
Traditional Archer I laughed as well hah
We missed you, glad you're back :)

Giles, thanks and really good to see you on here, you’ve been missed
Top video 👍 I’ve been waiting for thee .177 Hades! Stay safe 👍
Thanks Giles! Always a pleasure. stay healthy and keep on splendid work :D
You’re a funny guy and very well informed and entertaining
Can't wait to watch this, but I'm off to bed now. Good to see you again Giles, looking forward to watching this in the morning.
Nice one Mr Giles. Glad we got the .177 version 👍
Hope all is well good to see you back
Thanks Giles, my s510 loves the 10.3gn Sovereign and JSB heavies so i’ve got to give them a try. I shoot the .22 through my FAC and I definately get expansion from them. 👍🏼🏴
Glad you are back btw. Much love stay safe
very cool Sir thank you for the time spent testing , you always put a smile on my face with great honest reviews all the best to you and yours ,
Hi Giles, always enjoy your videos and glad to see you are healthy.
Thank god your back miss your vlogs sooooooooooo much
Missed you man good to see you up and about cracking jokes and showing us useful information
👍👍👍😜🦄🏴😁🤞✌️
Thanks Giles, even in Queensland we are suffering cabin fever. I’m presently in my back yard bench rest dry firing . I’m becoming quite good at it too.😷 Cheers from Downunder
Great video Giles, enjoyed the pellet review, the Hades pellets look like they will make an awesome hunting pellet.
Great to see you back again Giles!
I was curious about the .177 Hades pellets after seeing the .22 reviews. You have answered the queries I had.
My Huntsman Regal devours Bisley Magnums (10.6gn) with relish, and shoots beautifully! Very consistent and accurate out to 50 metres. I only take shots at live quarry at a maximum of 35-40 metres, and the results are very reliable, so I don't think that I'll be changing. Great to have another choice though.
Great video as always.
Cheers matey!!
Lol, love the VIP section. Sorry you have to deal with muppets. Great video!
I'm in the US, but I live in Illinois, where anything that fires at a higher rate than 700fps, or is larger than .177 is considered a firearm, requiring a full background check and all the fees that go with it, so this video was actually quite helpful.
Oh wow, i did not know that! Is it just Illinois? Does your State have strict gun laws then? I always presumed you could get any air rifle anywhere in the States without a license...
Just order online
What the F**K. Illinois must be Democrat-controlled. Regulate air rifles like firearms? Would be enough to make me move to another state.
Haha it's been a while indeed! Love your sense of humour! 🤣
Great stuff Giles. Stay safe!
Welcome back
Thanks for taking the time to do this Giles. Your findings are kind of what I expected. The sub 12 .177 in the UK is just not going fast enough to make any significant deformation. The same goes with the other 'specialist hunting' pellets. I have found that the JSB Exact Heavy has been an excellent pellet in my sub 12 fpe Wolverine. Great accuracy with some down range knock down power.
Stay safe mate.
Wow Buddy cool video . Great idea with the 22 cleaning pellets !!!
Thanks for all you do !
Thanks Giles. Looking forward to the debut...
Joy to see your mush Giles.
Great video Giles. LOVED IT!
An interesting test because it is different from the others. Good boy !
Been to long lol best airgun review out there keep them coming
Outstanding shipmate.
Nice Giles, thanks for the info,👍stay safe.
Thank god for Giles if you do read this mate it's probably one of the only bits of normalaty weve got at the moment keep up the good work mate love your videos thank you and God bless the n.h s
This vid is just what I was looking for, I will try them now I know there available, cheers 👍
Excellent in Depth review thank you
Great review
good to see ya' on
Hey Giles
Try the sub 12 into the bucket of water
Good to see you lad
Really like Airgun 101. Just wish I could watch videos on my TV.
Great video giles glad to see your posts again but still waiting for the fx hybrid slugs test in sud 12ftlb pal hope we'll see that soon
Definitely need more video Giles, when will you do another live stream?
Some great information thanks for sharing
your awesome :). Well said at start of vid :):):). Happy your back Giles
I gave you a thumbs up just for the opening commentary on idiots wanting to be offended, and where to file the complaint. 👍
Great to see a “working mans” test on these pellets. Very interesting. Although it’s a sad reflection on how far the “Loonie Left” have degraded our society, that there is a need to put disclaimers at the start of this sort of video - however, yours should be up for an award 👍👍👍👍
Lockdown ....airgungearshow sorted 👍👍👍👍
Wandering over to airgun101...
I do not get easily offended but the fact that my FX radar and Hybrid slugs that left the UK on sunday still haven't made it here is allmost offending me a bit... Thanks for another good one Giles. 😊
...nicely done....
Hi Giles great to see you back and YES you could say I'm 'somewhat' jealous of you having all that space to shoot (play) in... sadly no shooting-friendly back garden here to help keep me sane through isolation (sobs). 😭
But I'd conclude from your one-shot soap test the 8.44gr JSB Exact is the slightly better pellet for sub-12ft/lbs use, as it penetrated less, and therefore gave up all of its energy (approx 8.9ftlbs @20yards downrange) in the first inch of the soap. To me that equates to being more likely to stop in the head or neck of slimmer vermin (for us pest controllers out there), for less chance of over-penetration and even greater likelihood of a humane kill.
The higher-velocity Hades' improved expansion unequivocally proves it's better for use in FAC rifles 👌🏻 though I'd love to have seen a non-FAC water expansion test pellet compared side-by-side (for the science, innit?) 😇
All the best, stay safe.
Cheers. Russ
I Love this Guy!
That was fun. I'm glad you did this video, I need to order some more pellets and was thinking about trying these in my break barrel which runs around 12 foot pound. I don't think I'll get any after watching this, not really worth it, I already have heavier lead that I need to use. I am thinking of trying a can with my pcp's though. Thanks... and I'm off to look at some lead.
I’ve been shooting Hades.22 @ 1180 fps out of a Walther Maximator PCO here in Oz. I did some tests on the hip bone of a sheep when I first changed to JSB. I did comparative tests and the regular pellet which was 22.4 or so, punched through with little expansion on exit. I did the same test with the Hades and found the back blown completely out of the exit side of the bone. I didn’t measure it but it was about 1 1/2” which was astounding. Great accuracy and I’m shooting rabbits out to 50 metres.
That is good news for me... I have a B2-4 in .177 and a Hatsan pcp in .22 with I use mostly around 10 to 15m varminting on our cane farm. The Hatsan runs nicely around 900fps with guaranteed one shot drops with the Hades and wadcutters. The B2-4 I love to use because its a bit clunky and so on. And I diesel it... standard its around 550fps and after dieseling, I get about 700fps with Marksman pointed tips. They're a bit light but flatten totally with head shots which at short distance, punches a 3/8 of an inch hole in a feral cat skull. I also experiment with 3D printed pellets that one of my mates makes for me. Those are horrifically fast but I've not been able to retrieve one yet which is why I don't use those for varminting yet.
I subbed just on this vid and will check out the others.
Respect from 🇿🇦
Giles, you offended me by flushing a non water saving toilet😢
Llf Briliant
👍👍👍😜🦄🏴😁🤞✌️
Does not matter what shape the pellet is, if you put it in the brain, heart, or lungs its lights out, so use the most accurate that suits the barrel, is good in wind, and you have the best pellet for all situations, don't swap and change, stick with that pellet. for me they are not as accurate as a round nose, even in FAC.
Have missed you. Please do more videos on CZcams.
Gotta love those VIP sections. Damn fat fingers and hitting extra letters.
Hello Giles. enjoyed seeing you safe.
You need another few Element Scopes to put on the guns sitting on the shelves behind you.
ps did your missus not put that garment in the bin?.
Great video! I see that Xisico xs46u is behind you leaning on the wall and I wonder how well will the 177 hades perform in sub 12 ft/lb springers? Could you please do a test on that? Thank you very much.
Nice one mate that works better than ballistic gel
Good on yer mate. And airgunners did not melt the icebergs either.
Love ya vip section
177 nice, i really like to test this with my gun
Hey Giles. Been watching you for a long time now. Excellent reviews and you are a funny guy my friend. I really enjoy you videos.
Quick question for you.
What would you consider the maximum range for shooting a 0.177 caliber pellet using an FAC airgun for accuracy (interested in consistently accurate groups on paper). Thanks and keep it up.
HE'S ALIVE!!!!!
Great vid.....I have a fully custom built nitro piston pellet rifle..(built it myself)...shoots 1040 fps with 8 gr pellets...extreme spread less that 6fps....around 19-20 ft pounds .....Will order up some Hades and try them out and let u know how well they work in a magnum springer.....from my frozen igloo in canada...keep the vids coming
So, In effect all the energy from the 8.44 was dumped in the first block with less over penetration? Interesting
He's back. Hurrah!........any chance of a co2 pistol pellet test wads v dust devils v bbs v gamo rounds?
This is an unrelated question, but do you think I could put Nielsen slugs through a pellet barrel on a break action? I’ve got a .22 and I use the hades right now and they work well, but I want that extra umph. Great video as well.
You should have made a vertical cut through those soap blocks... Nice to see the power dump in soap...
can we see a crossman piranha next, it falls between the 2 illustrated.
Great as usual Giles, I love .17 and use Bisley Magnum, is the Hades available in .453?
Nice love
hello Giles
thanks for the good videos
questions? when will the new update for FX radar app become available for I phone
If they added a point or domed centre piece to the centre of the pellet. Then upon impact the addition would deform the petals of the pellet and significantly enhance the spread and therefore cause more damage to anything hit. Centre piece to act as a pressure spreader
Plaid on plaid, strong choice!
Nice One and cut the Crap this is from
a cousin from across the pond! Normally prefer Barracuda Hunter Extreme But you've peeked my Interest with the Hades in .177¥ Cheers Xxx
Top job as always 👍 will definitely be getting a tin of these cheers for the heads up
Thank you my friend for this good video I was waiting for this pallets where I can buy them if you can help me thank you
Subbed
Happy i am east accros the pond, unlimited footpounds and caliber in the Netherlands. :))
Little dissapointed you never mention us. ;))
Brilliant as always. Just one thing of interest why didn't you compare apples to apples namely the JSB heavy and the Hades, same weight same shape and the heavy shoots perfectly out of most modern PCP. As for the field testing didn't see anyone within 2m and you were obviously exercising!
Are you going to stock them in the 101 shop please
Ted.
Heavier pellet may be slower when fired and may lose speed faster but it would have more momentum and should retain energy better than the lighter pellet
Very interesting mate, im into some of the science stuff, can i tell you a secret "i don't even have a air rifle or pistol" i have nowt.
Dont have a FAC, but would love something to do the rats rabbits and squirrel, its getting a permission for them, would probably need to get it first
then get some sort of bullpup rifle or the HW 44, or cp2 x p8000 to make a ratter around 9 fps very baffling.
Your new vlogs are on the ball though and the wise craics are good value keep it lit, take care and safe to you and your family.
you should try test em against jsb 10.3gn and H N barracuda hunter 10.3gn.
They tell us things will never be the same after the virus, but Giles, he will never change. Stay just as you are.
Great Video, Thanks. But you have not introduced your Meadow ladies for a very long time.......
Lol. Don’t know why I just left a thumbs up. Other than 👍🏻
