Airhunter Gerhard wins H&N Golden Achievement Award

[HN Sport]

One week ago our CEO Christian Hirschel awarded Gerhard with the Golden Achievement Award for the design and development of the H&N Slug HP II and Heavy Slug.

"As a designer for HN Sport, I feel honored to receive this accolade, and this was truly one of the best team efforts yet."

As a special remembrance, his Precision Marksman victory in the Rocky Mountain Airgun Challenge 2023 was also engraved on the golden trophy.
He won this major event using the H&N Heavy Slug in 34 grain, which makes this achievement even more special for Gerhard.

By the way: Gerhard is already working on his next award.

Keep up the fantastic work and congratulations Gerhard!

Congratulations. When are the heavy hpII coming...

What do you mean? They're already out, they've been out.

Negative. The HPII ends @ 30gr. In .22. The heavy .22, 34 / 40gr are the 1st gens.

The ones labeled massive expansion are the HP2. They just aren't labeled HP2 in .22 for whatever reason, only in .25

Interesting, I have a tin of the 34gr and the hp is not the same as the 30gr I have that are marked HPII. I also found out that there are 2 versions of the HPII that have different hp designs. This was confirmed by H&N. Maybe this is the case?

Quite possibly, @HN Sport should be able to confirm is so.

I can not get .177 H&N slugs to fly right in my rifles, 2 other brands do better at least in the weight i know my rifle can shoot good.

They did reply on here when I brought up the .30gr hpII

Yeah they're excellent at responding back.

 

[Ta-Ta Toothie]

The later of the 2 hpII performed better, especially on impact.

Have you tried measuring the slugs? I've tried the same but no success with the .177. I'm hoping a twist rate of 1:14 fixes that.

Same for me, .177 slugs from H&N just haven't proven accurate.
All other calibres are fine.
Pity because I prefer H&N.
