Testing ZAN .177 air rifle slugs in the sub12 Anschutz 9015 

Thats easier said than done in deteriorating conditions mate, im experimenting with alternate ammo each shot,like the military do when testing in wind.but I've a few things to figure out yet on that. I've shot tons of heavies though in all manner of weather the zans pretty much matched them to my eye in that sort of wind,yet done it at 10.5 ftlb.

Hi mate, my katran has been great so far. I've had to strip the fill valve twice now though,but that's really my fault as I filled it with crud filling by hand pump. The magazine issues have mainly been the krait and airmaks have even been brave enough to do a public acknowledgement of it(that's rare in itself) and are working on a fix for it. I'm very fond of the katran, and like anything mechanical there will be failures. But for them to publicly say yeah its not right but give us a chance to sort it,says alot about their commitment and integrity as a company. I will do a proper review on mine soon, now I've had it 7 months I'm able to give a proper appraisal of it. I should say,I have no connection to the company and paid for the katran and don't have to sell it to fund my next yt review😉

@@tillysgunstocks yeah you can't ask for more than that honesty goes a long way, shame brk brocock couldn't do the same thing, can't wait for katran review

Hi Adam. I'm trying to convince my wife to cut a batch of foams out,but she's pretty busy with work of late,but I will get some made up as soon as possible. I wouldnt mind trying them slugs tbh. I'll work my way through all of them in time,hopefully on a calmer day so I can push them out to over 50m.

Hi mate ,I'll keep an eye out for that. I'm keen to try as many things as I can with the slugs to improve their performance,cheers 😉

@@tillysgunstocks hi tilly, its used for lubing,cases for for resizing for centre dire rifles i just put some on thumb and finger i so each 1 individually

I did have a good look at the slugs in the backboard, there was no obvious signs they went in eccentric, I think it was the wind whipping the card off the backboard a bit that had it torn up. The wind was really getting up at the end.

The shape of the bsa loading probe is pretty good at getting the slugs loading concentric in the bore. Quite alot of the bsa models will shoot slugs to an acceptable degree of accuracy 😉

I've got the 13gn here to test eventually, I'm also trying to get hold of the new 10gn versions that have just been released. 😉

yes, 12.99 is ok

These ones were a sample tin from ihunter. Currently 12.99 for a box of 400 or you can get sample packs for a few quid. I'll definitely be getting a few more boxes as I want to push these out to 75yds in calm conditions through a few of my other barrels. Given just how savage and unpredictable that wind was during testing I'm happy with the performance.

Damn mate, they should be around 13quid for 400 in the smaller calibres. The larger calibres are ofcourse more expensive

I've tried with and without various lubes. So far results are inconclusive. I've been finding much better gains with the way they are loaded. I'll cover this in some upcoming videos 😉

"The price of slugs to come down "... don't hold your breath bud 😉

12quid odd for the 10gn .177 from ihunter in the uk currently mate. The larger cals and higher weighed ones are ofcourse more expensive though

@@tillysgunstocks just an add on, they shoot laser accurate out to 65 yards out of my sub 12 NSA ultra se. Dont use anything else.
