Understanding Air Gun Slugs
From the whispering flight of a .177, ideal for precision target shooting, to the thunderous impact of a .50 caliber, air gun slugs (or air gun slugs) offer a diverse array of options. With a different blend of velocity, accuracy, and energy, each caliber appeals to different shooting preferences. Let's take a look at a few of our options:
.177 Slugs
At 4.5mm in diameter, .177 caliber slugs will fit .177 caliber air guns and can produce around 6.8 foot-pounds of energy. This is enough to take down pests and small game up to 2 lbs at under 75 yards. In the air gun world, .177 slugs are not as popular as pellets, but they do offer more knockdown power.
.22 Slugs
At 5.5mm, .22 caliber slugs offer a good balance between speed and hitting power. .22 caliber air guns can produce about 10 foot-pounds of energy when using slugs, which is enough to take small game up to 20 lbs at under 75 yards. This makes them a popular choice among air gun hunters.
.25 Slugs
Now we begin to get into serious power. At 6.35mm, .25 caliber slugs can take medium game, such as raccoons and foxes, at under 75 yards. Their moderate weight makes them a versatile choice for various shooting applications, but are primarily used for hunting.
.30 Slugs
The 7.62mm or .30 caliber slugs pack a punch suitable for hunting coyotes and other similar-sized game and pests. They offer the power and precision needed to deliver the hard-hitting impact that makes them popular with many hunters.
.357 Slugs
These 9.07mm slugs have impressive knock-down power and are designed for hunting and long-range target shooting. The hard-hitting .357 slugs offer exceptional accuracy and terminal performance, making them a favorite among enthusiasts looking for superior stopping power and penetration.
