I have it set up shooting the H&N 34gr Heavy slugs at 975fps. I did not change any settings to shoot the Ace 40.1gr. slugs, they were going 937 fps.

After 5 sight in shots this is the 1st 100 yard group in gusty 12+ mph wind. I held .2 mil to the left for wind.

#7 was shooter.
The hole in the target is ⅞ of an inch.

Hopefully Airmarksman comes out with a high BC Boat Tail Hollow Point for hunting.

I am going to adjust my rifle to shoot them a little faster.

So far I really like the Airmarksman Ace slugs.

They easily fit in the Orion the Iguana Hunter magazines for the DRS.

I wonder if the flat meplat would tear up the wound channel like a wadcutter. Has any one tested these in something like clay or ballistic gel?

N/A  Best 22 pellet slinger?

I do own a Pathfinder, no tuning on my part Regulator at 150 BAR and HS as received. I get 77-80 shots per fill. The Pathfinder is a sweet PCP, its the one I reach for the most. I’ve posted about mine here on AGN. Going out now to plink with mine…🙏
Will the pathfinder shoot the heavier stuff well?

N/A  Best 22 pellet slinger?

You might need to rethink your expectations. The best barrel in the world will not shoot crappy pellets. So, if you have cabinet full of leftovers and culls, I think it is unlikely that you will find a rifle that "slings" them all sub MOA! But good luck in your search.
I've owed a evol mini 22, huben k1 22, uragan 2 compact 22, cricket 22, prod 22, gk1 22, taipan mutant 22, taipan vet 22 standard. I have pellets i purchased for these guns over the years. Full unopened tins because I sold the guns.

I feel my expectations are reasonable. I dont expect to find 1 gun to shoot everything sub moa, but I would like the versatility to push heavy and lighter pellets with the ability to externally adjust for each pellet. The k1/gk1 is the only gun that falls into that category from what I've owned, but id like to try something new. If its a semi it has to have a removable mag.

If I had to choose 1 pellet the gun liked it would be either the jsb 25 grain or jts 25 grain(i have the most of these). Then from there I have a handful of tins of hades, jsb 18s. Then I have a bunch of random weight jts and jsb I bought for testing purposes.

I appreciate all the feedback. I wanted to hear all the opinions before I make a choice. Keep the suggestions coming. Im in no rush.

Now this is some great advertising! H&N

Been shooting pellets for 63 yrs, I am 75. Slugs have a small niche in the air gun community. If I hang a picture a roofing hammer is not what I use. When shooting starlings off the bird house a 30cal pellet, slug etc is not the rifle I use. My .02 cents
What if the starling is 150+ yards away in variable winds?
(Imagines bird houses looking like they have suffered a Russian drone attacks)
