Any round nose slugs?

ImpactX · Dec 22, 2019

Every slug I see is hollow point. Only round slugs I seen are big bores. I never liked hollow point in my real guns. I always shoot full metal jacket round nose. Idk why no one came up or made a round nose slug for .22 and .25 and .30 Everyone just wants that hollow point expansion. I want that round nose penetration. Anyone know where I can get .25 round nose slug, post up link and I'll check them out

Mr Hollowpoint has RN and spitzer available in most calibers.

I've wondered the same thing.

The massive tissue destruction I've seen in the videos (36 gr slug @ 950+ fps) is OK on pests (I guess) but not so for long (beyond pellet) range pesting on pigeons that I might want to eat.

I pest with a .22 most of the time; the penetration of a round-nose slug would be a bonus on racoon and porcupine sized pests I am often asked to remove from my permissions.

RD Monsters are an option and some of the H&N pellets might do. Would appreciate hearing about any .22 round nosed slugs.

I use a Lyman .25 ACP mold that makes a 52 grain round nose bullet. It works quite well in my .25's

NOE has several of the Bob's Boattail series of molds that have a flat nose that also work quite well.

Personally I like the HP's for most of my hunting.
