If any of you folks with Edguns, the LW barrels absolutely will shoot certain slugs amazingly well.
Here is a 5 round, 50 yard group I just shot (in the freezing cold...brrrrr) from the Matador .22 cal, bipod and benched
.
The group is about 9mm, or 0.4 inches. I was getting 3/4 to 1 inch groups before, but just cleaned the barrel well and they tightened up. Gotta clean em regularly gents!
This was using the VK 22.5 grain HP-DB slugs, as pictured, running them at an ave of 840 fps. (35 ft-lbs). The mushroomed slug I pulled out of the dirt after it passed through a 5 inch pumpkin at 82 yards. Yes they expand quite nicely at this speed.
Looking forward to running them 100-200 yrds.
