How fast are you guys pushing the fx hybrids?

My Taipan Veteran Long .22 cal (CZ barrel) is currently pushing the hybrids at ~950 fps. I've taken squirrels with them at 30 yards and shot 3/4 inch groups at 75 yards. 

I plan to do more target shooting at 75 - 100 yards tomorrow.

If you get a chance, try the JSB Knockout slugs. I'm pushing them at 975 fps in another Taipan Vet.

My cricket in .25 is pushing hybrids at 905 for some sweet groups! I'm actually going to try some nsa slugs today as I got a sample pack. Hoping I can find one that'll group as good as the hybrids do!

HI I have not shot them much but I have shot the JSB Knockouts and HN and M sllugs beyond 1050fps accurately in my .22 calibers LOU

Shooting them at 930ftps and the grouping is now fantastic at 50 plus yards having been just acceptable at 830ftps. I read that the recommendation from fx is 930 to 970ftps, no idea if this is true but out my 700mm superior liner they shot better the faster I pushed them up to 930ftps.

.22 cal fx hybrids 964 out of a Taipan Vet Long.

Per @2manyairgunz above - if you get opportunity, give the jsb's a go too - they are my current go to in this same gun but I'm only going @933. I (apparently) need to throttle my reg up a little as I couldn't get them to go faster than mid-high 950's and they weren't grouping very well. I slowed 'em down to low 930's and they tightened right up nice. LW barrel on mine though so a bit of a difference there.

The hybrids DO group a little tighter and are likely more consistently accurate but . . . . the knock outs are a lot less expensive too and are easily wood chuck moa. ;-)

My Airwolf is shooting them at 930 on power 12 and 850 on power 11 and power 11 is the more accurate of the two. not super great about 3/4 of an inch at 67 yards

AAA EVOL HPS - 1162 ftps ( straight out of the box without any tuning)

You ideally want a SF in the green. 
You need a micrometer.

Need to know exact length, OD, twist of barrel, speed at muzzle, atmospheric conditions. 
Ive seen 1.55-.1.88 with Griffin RBT's.

Most are in the lower green 1.20's

Here's the TRUTH about slugs. Some will not even began to stabilize until 150-200 yards. 
I don't see much reason in pushing slugs unless you are going to shoot past 100 yards. If high winds are the reason then you need a SF of at least 1.20 for 100 yards. My 1.50-1.88 28 grain were on top of each other at 100 and great, hitting nose flat at 400 pushed 1040 from a 1.17.5 altitude 740' 80*F .217" .385" long. Add the 0.020 green ballistic tip 

1010fps. Still moa accurate at 100. Crazy!

Yep the faster you shoot the 25 Hybrids the better they do, I shoot them at 1,000 fps and they good.
