Introducing the next caliber in the revolutionary FX Hybrid Slug
The Hybrid Slug has been a fundamental leap forward in airgun projectile technology. Combining the high ballistic coefficients of slugs, accuracy of pellets, and a light weight provided by the deep recessed hollow point provided by the Hybrid’s patented design. FX proudly offers the next chapter for the Hybrid, the .25 Caliber Hybrid Slug: available immediately at all FX dealers in the US (and in route to international dealers).
The .22 Caliber Hybrid that was released at the end of 2019 has been a resounding success for both FX Airgun owners as well as those shooting the Hybrid from other manufacturer’s rifles. The effect of the light weight of the design only shines brighter with larger calibers. The .25 Caliber Hybrid is an even more hunting friendly caliber that expands the size of game you can hunt with the Hybrid.
Testing has determined that the .25 Caliber Hybrid Slug obtains the best accuracy when shot between 930 – 970 fps. With the initial offering of the .25 Hybrid Slug weighing 26 grains, this will provide 45 ft lbs of muzzle energy that will shoot very flat and provide impressive expansion due to the design of the Hybrid.
The 26gr .25 Hybrid is an amazing projectile. When shot through the new FX Superior STX Liner in a closed indoor 100 yard test range, ¾” – 1” groups were easily obtained. In real world conditions with higher winds, the .25 Hybrid really shines and the sub-MOA 100 yard accuracy maintains. Testing has found that the .25 Hybrid is affected by wind less than even heavier grained .25 standard slugs! FX has listed the G1 BC at a conservative 0.090, keeping in mind altitude and feet per second effect this number (as well as the G1 BC being the closest ballistics model to compare the Hybrid Slug to). Already many early reviewers have registered BCs higher than the listed 0.090. We know users will be astounded with their results as the gyroscopic flywheel rim effect of the Hybrid design really shines and firmly places the .25 Hybrid as the premium hunting airgun projectile in its caliber.
At just 26 grains, users will find that a vast amount of .25 Caliber rifles will shoot the Hybrid well. Note that these .25 Hybrid Slugs have been tailored to perform best from the new FX Superior STX Barrel Liners. FX users are encouraged to upgrade their existing FX Rifles STX barres to this new liner to achieve the best accuracy. Older STX Pellet A and STX Slug A liners have not yielded as good of results as the Superior STX Liner.
The .25 Cal FX Hybrid Slug is available immediately at all USA based FX Dealers and is in route to other FX Dealers around the world. Contact your FX Dealer for pricing and availability. The .30 & .35 Caliber Hybrid Slug are due to be released the summer of 2020 as the lineup of the FX Hybrid Slug continues to evolve and grow.
