The 17.5gr .217 and 20.2gr .217 work very well for me. Have used the 500mm and 600mm barrels (Superior Standard and Slug A).

Also used a few boxes of .218 20.2gr with great results using the Slug A 600mm at 980fps - 1030fps.

Yeah I’m not looking to crank up the gun. Just want pellet accuracy.

Hard to beat pellet accuracy at low 900s! But I'm sure someone on here has found the magic slug to do it.

Any reason your don't want to up your hammer a few clicks (if you aren't already maxed out) and get the 17.5gr or 20.2gr up to mid to upper 900s?

I had great results with the .22 howler slugs at 980fps from when I had my compact. Was a little laser gun.

Forgot about those! Yes, those worked great for me too! (I believe they are also made by NSA)

Yeah, I had slightly better results with the howlers vs the NSA even though the howlers are made by them. Can't go wrong with either out of a short barrel.

my 17.5 are at 915 now they are accurate jut not as good as the 18 gr but for hunting sure kill them for sure

 

[douger]

dont think the slugs will beet a pellet at 45 -60 yards as mine is damn accurate

My compact with superior heavy does not like the 17.5 gr. But, it is a laser with 20.2 gr .218 slugs at 843 fps.

 

[douger]

got few 23 gr might try today

For me the NSA 24.8 grain .218 lubed with Balistol is right on the heels of the JSB 18.13 grain pellet out to 50 yards. Past 50 yards I believe the slug is taking over the lead; especially if they’re is any wind. That’s with an FX Superior 600mm on a Crown MK2. I’m shooting the 24.8 at 945 fps. A friend with a Dreamline is shooting the same slugs also lubed with Balistol at about 915fps with the same great accuracy.
