Great to be back in action again, I've bought some 10.5grn slugs (yes I paid for them myself!) to try in my new Airwolf and they are superb so I decided to use them on my first visit to the Golf club since lockdown ended, and also give them a go on the corvids at the farm. They performed brilliantly in the Daystate Lothar barrel so I'll definitely be using them going forward, especially on the farm. As they are more expensive than pellets I'm sure they won't be for everyone but for us Sub 12 shooters it's good to have more choice, more is better!
They are available here-

@longbowdt 3 года назад

I'd have never thought I'd see .177 slugs perform so accurately at sub-12 fpe. Here in the U.S, I find that perfect for short range urban shooting...if I can find slugs that are similarly light in weight. And in .22, as I have a rare Parker-Hale Phoenix mk2 that's tested at 11.73 fpe. Maybe with a bit of luck...😊 Thank you for pointing the way.

@NottsPestControl 3 года назад

You’re welcome. They are specifically designed for sub 12 airguns that’s why they are only 10.5grn. If your gun likes them they are a great alternative to pellets for hunting

@longbowdt 3 года назад

@@NottsPestControl And here I've been thinking higher speeds were needed in order to overcome the typical lower twist rates of airgun barrels. Live and learn. Thank you again.

@NottsPestControl 3 года назад

These work mostly because of their lighter weight, I’m using them at 700fps and they shoot brilliantly

@longbowdt 3 года назад

@@NottsPestControl I now think it has to be possible to offer a range of slugs that are designed to operate in typical air rifle barrels. Maybe they'd be offered in a range of fp/e. Or accuracy based on distance usage as you've demonstrated. After all, some hunters enjoy the close-in stalk while others enjoy the long range kill shots. Certainly urban shooters would fall in the former. It's all so exciting to imagine. I need an ale!🍻

The velocity of that.50 cal. slug was pretty slow, but I guess it would have to be slow to stay sub 12!

@NottsPestControl Год назад

True. It’s definitely sub 12!

@martynsmith3767 3 года назад

good shooting wont they cycle through the 10 shot mag

@NottsPestControl 3 года назад

Thanks Martyn. Yes they work ok in the Daystate magazine as it’s operated by a spring lever like a clock. It’s when there’s pressure against the slug like in an FX mag they can roll and cause problems as they aren’t the same shape as a pellet. Most guns shoot more accurately through a single shot loader anyway I’ve just bought a Rowan one for the Airwolf that pops out when you cock the gun making it easier to use

@PeakyBlinder 2 года назад

What twist rate is the barrel on that, As slugs don't like barrels with a high twist I'm just curious as to Weather your using a soft twist barrels,

@NottsPestControl 2 года назад

It’s a standard Lothar Walther barrel so I assume it’s around 1/18. These slugs are designed for sub 12 shooting in standard air rifles, all I know is they are the most accurate ammunition I’ve shot through the Airwolf so I’ll keep using them. They also have a better BC than pellets so drop less compared to a similar weight like a JSB Heavy

@PeakyBlinder 2 года назад

@@NottsPestControl I see, They look awesome bro keep up the great vids, I tried slugs long ago and just brushed them aside as for fac only as pellets need the twist for stability and to keep the skirt inline, Unlike slugs that need a smooth twist to seal the air behind them. But what you are using seems perfect,

@NottsPestControl 2 года назад

@@PeakyBlinder Yes these are designed specifically for sub 12 shooting so don’t need to hit 900fps to be stable

I did it as an upgrade after reading about them. They are excellent and really allow the gun to be tuned to every shot. The original board was fine I just wanted to tinker!

@Rickybiker 2 года назад

What sort of range finder are you using I can see the flash which I’m guessing is the range finder

@NottsPestControl 2 года назад

Yes It’s the LE-032 rangefinder that fits onto a picatinny mount on your rifle and you adjust the base to coincide with your scope view. They are about £125 ish on eBay if I recall

@messor01 10 месяцев назад

Dude, if you shoot with 174 joules, that's 128 fpe, you can shoot a rabbit with that!😃

@andrewmorrissey2423 3 года назад

Did you have to turn the power up much when changing to slugs. Whenever I have tried them I lose about 1flb or so. Are they accurate at 50 and 60 yards as well. Nice to see if they are worth getting some. How have you found the expansion.

@NottsPestControl 3 года назад

Not really as they compensate with the slight drop in power with a better BC so it sort of balances itself out at 30-40 yards. Not shot them out to 60 yards but up to 50 they are very good, and the expansion is excellent they flatten almost to a disc as they are very hollow

@andrewmorrissey2423 3 года назад

@@NottsPestControl cheers for that. What BC are you getting. I have an XSight so would need the BC for that. Cheers

@NottsPestControl 2 года назад

No but they were the most accurate ammunition in my Airwolf, and the expansion was very impressive. I was headshotting squirrels in my back yard at 8m and they didn’t pass through. If you’re using them for pest control the cost is irrelevant as well
