Sorry no pics .
Last nite I had a few minutes to kill so I ran out to a close farm to try out these new slugs. I Have a power tuned Cricket .25 and just got in the new Nielsen 29 gr slugs. These slugs are a thing of beauty and I finally got my Cricket dialed in with them for now. Still need to do a little more experimenting and see how they shoot at farther distances. Right now it is slinging them at 975-980 fps
Anyway I was hoping a pigeon or two would be hanging around but no such luck. However there were the sparrows and a few starlings. As soon as I exited the truck I spotted a starling about 30 yards away sitting on top of a light pole. I lined up the shot leaning against the door frame of my truck and let one fly. Holy Cow! What an explosion of feathers and a loud pop. Unfortunately it fell onto a roof and I couldn't recover it. It was instant "lights out". Only bad part is that the pop was so loud it scared off all the other birds! I think I'm going to like these slugs.
