5.0 5.0

By Eric from USA on 2020-05-25 20:40:29

Things I liked:

Sot them out of my FX Impact at 935 fps at the muzzle. They do expand on varmints when launched at that velocity, causing damage similar to that of .22 LR HP bullets. They are also quite accurate in the FX STX Superior liner. Not JSB Exact King accuracy, but close enough. They shoot more flatly than domed pellets at the same velocity and as stated, do significantly more damage.

Things I would have changed:

They are quite dirty. Expect to see lots of lead shavings everywhere as the result of the manufacturing process. Cost is high.They are expensive compared to traditional domed pellets, almost twice the cost, similar to .22 WMR ammo. If you are hunting at extended range, or are shooting larger varmints up to and including raccoons and or coyotes, they may be worth the expense.

What others should know:

I assume if you are considering these it is because you plan to hunt with them. They need to be pushed to higher velocities to get expansion. I don't know the lower velocity limit at which they will not expand, but I do know they do not expand on small varmints at 750 fps or less in the .22 version. I suspect the lower limit is somewhere between 800 and 850 fps. If your .25 cal airgun won't push a 26 gr pellet at least that fast, don't expect these to perform better. In my gun, a 26 gr pellets will start at 950 fps; these slugs are 15 fps slower and yet perform impressively. Think Predator Polymags, but better out past 50 yds. The higher BC of the slugs is supposed to be an advantage at longer ranges if you can start them fast enough. Lastly, these aren't backyard projectiles in the .25! Launched at 935 fps they are packing 50 FPE. Expect richochets and pass-throughs that could be dangerous, obviously.

Things I liked:

Could not use them. They fell down the barrel of my Marauder after I load them. I called Pyramid air several times but they never got back to me. Terrible support. Do not buy.

    Things I liked:

    Hit extremely hard with insane exoansion out of my Benjamin Trail xl .25. Average grouping at 30 yards.

    Things I would have changed:

    More available in a package. Less expensive

    What others should know:

    I know these aren't meant for break barrel or gas ram. But they worked extremely well out of my Trail Xl.25. I would compare the expansion to the diameter of a 9mm bullet. It was crazy how much they mushroom.

    Things I liked:

    Clean and uniform slugs. Very well packaged, each slug is in its own chamber. These are not piled up on each other like other brands.

    Things I would have changed:

    Not a single thing.

    What others should know:

    These shot hole in hole out of my RAW, Rapid and Marauder. I shoot off a bunch in my basement at 45 feet to see what my guns like before going to a range.

    Things I liked:

    The flight is much more consistent than the .25cal I have tried. At impact on the targets the pass through is clean and the holes as well. Trajectory is definitely flatter at distance than a standard pellet. The ballistics are noticeably better over most of the pellets I shoot, just a great combination. Too many things I could say, but almost all are praises mostly this hybrid rocks. One outstanding fact, the pseudo skirt for this hybrid is why I love these over pellets. Not one of the skirts showed damage or deformities to the naked eye..

    Things I would have changed:

    Available in More calibers

    What others should know:

    I have tested this only in my Brocock sniper. And that gun loved it. So I ordered five more packs

    Doesn't fit my hantsen 65 Turkish walnut brake barral, to wide.but I wish that did.

    Things I liked:

    Almost as accurate as JSBs out of my Airforce TalonP with no adjustments to power setting, expand nicely on small game.

    Things I would have changed:

    A heavier option. 26gr is a little light for a .25 cal slug, lower price, slightly smaller diameter, these are extremely tight in my TalonP barrel.

    What others should know:

    I'd only use these for hunting due to the cost but there are cheaper slug options with comparable accuracy on the market.

    With the right tune these hybrids can be very accurate in the avenger but they need to be lube in before start to see accuracy.

    Things I liked:

    They not only shoot good out of my Fx Crown/Impact but my other guns (hatsan neutron star, and avenger) Hard hitting, accurate and expansion.

    Things I would have changed:

    Either lower the price or increase the amount by at least 25 more slugs. Make them available in different grains also.

    What others should know:

    I wouldn't waste them on target shooting other than zeroing them, they cost to much. I can only speak for MY Guns, but they do shoot really well out to 75 yrds when I zeroed them with an fps between 925-930 (25 cals). They are expensive, and I brought two paks of each caliber when I first tried these. Since then I re-ordered and brought four paks of each since you get one pak free when buying 4. I'm not really a slug shooter, but with the pellet shortage and how well these slugs shoot I wanted to keep extra on hand just in case. Also with my FX guns I didn't change the liners, barrels or add a slug kit, just tuned them using the reg pressure, hammer spring adjuster/port. As I like to say in my honest opinion Im going on how they shoot out of MY Guns They might shoot good or even better out of YOUR Gun(s) or they might not. I do recommend them but can't guarantee how they will shoot out of someone else gun
