Wildcat MKII Compact And Slugs?
- Thread starter Dbone
- Start date
YouTubers 68 Whiskey had luck with theirs; they did say that it was harder to do without a reg gauge.
They would have to wait for the slug to start dropping off the paper target to know they had gone off the reg.
I am waiting to do mine as I have not really figured a "great" tune with my Crown. I am putting the slug liner in the Wildcat tomorrow in hopes it will shoot the pellets better. I was thinking since they both have the 600mm barrel that it should not be that different.
I too would like some advice on the tune for the Wildcat. Maybe Kieth or Norm from 68 Whiskey will catch this thread and chime in.

Tuning the WC for slugs is no different than tuning it for pellets, its just more difficult to access the reg and hammer spring compared to the Crown.
Reg should probably be set for 150 to 155bar.
The slugs I would choose for the short barrel would be the 22.5gr Varmint Knockers.

I didn’t get any increase in speed when going from 145 to 150. Figured it was time for a heavier hammer or stronger spring. I had intended on making a new hammer with a thicker shoulder, adding more weight and taking up more spring travel. Only slugs I haven’t tried are the 29.5 NSA flat base. I think I was only getting into the low 800s with the 29 dish base though.
