Yeah, that's the thing with slugs... — because of their larger sidewall surface they create more friction with the barrel, and so they loose some energy....

With a FAC P15 I went from 30FPE to 27FPE when switching from the 16gr JSB domed pellet to a 22gr slug....


I still have to try and see what happens with my sub12 PCP.

NSA and Griffin make fairly light slugs that could work (I HOPE!) at those power levels (not for hollow point expansion, mind you, but for a high BC projectile (that requires very accurate ranging!). 😊


Tom Holland of Field Target Tech makes slugs for .177cal, as low as 10 grains light.

So many options! It's a great time to be an airgunner! 👍🏼😄
