Hades | 5.5mm | 16.59gr | 500pcs | JSB

Hades | 5.5mm | 15.89gr | 500pcs | JSB – heavy pellets for powerful PCP air rifles

These JSB Hades pellets combine the best of both worlds: the stability of a domed pellet shape with the effectiveness of a hollow point design. With a weight of 15.89 grain in 5.5mm caliber, these projectiles are specifically developed for powerful PCP air rifles from 40 joules and up. The unique design ensures excellent energy transfer on impact, while minimising the risk of ricochet.

Our experience from the Shogun team

The Hades series from JSB is known for its consistent performance and reliability. The hollow point design ensures controlled expansion on impact, resulting in effective energy transfer. At distances between 75 and 100 metres, these projectiles maintain their stability excellently, with the aerodynamic properties of the domed rear ensuring a predictable trajectory. The premium quality of JSB guarantees minimal weight variation between the pellets, contributing to consistent groupings.

Technical features in practice

With a caliber of 5.5mm and a weight of 15.89 grain, these Hades pellets are on the heavier side for this caliber. The domed shape with hollow point features makes them particularly suitable for situations where maximum energy transfer is desired. The lead material provides sufficient mass and malleability. Each tin contains 500 pieces, which is enough for extensive testing sessions to find the optimal setup for your air rifle. Testing different grains is essential for achieving the best accuracy – every air rifle has its own preferences regarding projectile weight. A chronograph can be valuable for measuring the energy output of your specific combination.

Who is this air rifle ammunition suitable for?

The JSB Hades pellets are designed for shooters with powerful PCP air rifles who are looking for projectiles with superior energy transfer. Due to the relatively high weight of 15.89 grain, they are ideal for air rifles with sufficient power to accelerate this mass effectively. Shooters who value consistent performance and effective energy transfer will appreciate these pellets. If the projectile is a hollow point, it is suitable for pest control such as rat control. The use of an air rifle for pest control is regulated by law. In many cases, a permit or hunting licence is required, and this is only permitted for recognised pest controllers or certified users.
