So here is my assumption in where the level of precision falls in trying to create a pecking order amongst all the various brands of slugs:
Altaros
Griffin
Air Velocity Sport (AVS)
FX/Rocky Mountain Reloading (RMR)
Haendler & Natermann (H&N) (Varies... assume using their best line: Heavy Slug)
Neilson Specialty Ammo (NSA)
ZAN
There were a few I didn't rank due to having no knowledge about their performance... and correct me if I am wrong, but I am assuming if I haven't read any posts about the following brands, they likely are not good and/or not intended as 'precision' slugs(?):
JSB
Daystate
Patriot
Wildman
Seneca
SO... what order would you put them in, regarding precision only (not cost, etc)?
Any other precision centered brands out there that I'm missing? Any small batch mom & pop outfits I missed that deserve a spot on the list?
Bonus points if you want to share how much you typically pay for each slug for various brands and/or have any tips on how to get them cheaper comparatively to the greater online storefronts, such as who sells in bulk and what they charge in various quantities for big purchases, etc.
Thanks in advance for your opinions and any info you're willing to share!!!
*Disclaimer: My list is based purely off of reading what others experiences have been/word of mouth. I am new to PCP and have only ever previously used pellets in my years of shooting springers.
