Finally found a gun in my collection that will shoot FX slugs....

[KatoKevin454]

After trying out FX Hybrid Slugs .22 cal in all my .22 cal guns only 1 gun would shoot them accurately, the Sam Yang Sumatra 2500 .22 cal, it shoots almost anything accurately, it is such a pellet / slug friendly gun.

all my .22's

HW100BP

Mrod w/LW polygon choked barrel

Synrod - stock

Gauntlet

Bullboss

none of these liked the FX slug,

I'm glad the Sumatra does like them and shoots them with excellent accuracy, I bought 400rds so I didn't want to waste them...

Glad you found a winner shooting those FX slugs. I love my Sumatra .25 and wished I had a .22 version as well. That rifle is simple and a powerhouse!

 

[FLgunner]

I have tried them in all my .22's as well, and they only shoot accurately from one of them also... My Mrod is the only one, and it's a freaking laser shooting them! I find this kind of ironic since I have 4 FX air rifles and none of them will shoot them worth a darn. They will all stack pellets one on top of another, but slugs look like I'm shooting a shotgun! All my .22's:

AimSport GEN2 DAR
Ataman AP16
Benjamin Cayden
Benjamin Marauder - WINNER
FX Crown Continuum 
FX Dreamline Classic
FX Dream-Tac Compact
FX Royale 400

Hi

Korean barrels have a reputation for adapting well to different types of pellets

Kato and FLgunner, what speeds are you finding the best accuarcy from the slugs? Wonder if it’s speed or twist related?

 

[Mapleaf99]

I have a 909 Career 22 and the only projectiles that feed an shoot well are the H&N Rabbit Magnum II which are slug shaped.

I don't know, I had the gun set to full power, it had to be close to 1300 fps, it shoots JSB 14's at 1328 fps, so it's got to be close.

My BSA sportsmen hv loves them in .22. My cricket 2 and WAR valved marauder love them in .25. I love the sound they make when connecting with a squirrel noggin

 

[TxHPA]

I tried them in my Edgun Matador and almost needed a hammer to load them, didn't have that

problem with NSA , H&N and others.

My Crown doesn't like them but my Condor does. Go figure. Well the Condor has the power to really get good expansion out of them. Can't wait to take down a squirrel or other critter with this combo.

My fx crown .22 absolutely stacks hybrids. These are 10 shots at 62 yards. Has slug liner A in. 

Dont know the speed.
