@scotaty yes, monster are quite accurate
Ok, today was intense! Shot lots of slugs with the slug liner 1:18 and the pellet liner, long story short the 1:18 still suck! But I stretch to a 100 meters (110y), almost no wind with the 22.5 vk, 27nsa and 30 nsa
1000 940 and 920 fps @ 150b with 1:19 pellet liner 600mm barrel
22.5 vk
27 nsa (2 slugs in 1 hole)
30 nsa (6shots)
Next week or this weekend I will test the 1:16 700mm slug liner, I have faith in that one (with all the other slugs 24, 26, 28, 27, 30 and 33) the 33vk where quite accurate, but I have just a few left, saving them for the 1:16

What what what the 33 grain were accurate , can you tell us more
or do we need to hear about it later . Here is a picture sent to me
it was shot at 50 yards and the Varmintknockers 40 grain 2-S nose
were used this same slug also shot very well at 200 yards also
the gun was a FX Impact 700mm barrel the 40 gr. was shot at 870 fps .

To my surprise yes, not as the one tested on 100 but better than others on that liner. Can't wait to test the 700mm 1:16
SEND ME MORE!

BTW the 1:18 shoot pretty good @50m the 27 NSA (only) , fair the 22.5 VK...and that's about it. But when I took it to a 100, nope.
New liner to test (Finally!)
And will see how this work on the 0.25 pellet liner (while I order a 0.25 SL)

today I shoot 100 m (109y) and 150m (164y) with the pellet liner and 22.5 gn vk and 30gn nsa. I trust the 1:19 pellet liner for hunting 100%
100m
150m 30gn
150 22.5gn
Getting ready for the 700mm slug liner 1:16

Thanks to PBA I got my new 700mm slug liner, I have a 600mm barrel so I made an extension + added a few mods to have more power
just finish my first 5 shots with the extension and the new slug liner 700mm pretty awesome! Not even tuned!
50y 5 shot group 27gn slugs reg @140
22.5gn 1040 vk .217
24 gn 1020 vk .217
26gn 1000 vk .217
27gn 975 nsa .218
28gn 970 vk .217
30gn 930 vk .217
30 gn 915 nsa .218
Finally I can real test, more to come!

Nice work on the extension. What is the thread size?
Can you directly test the velocity difference between 600mm and 700mm with no other changes? I'd be interested to see how much speed is added with the longer barrel.
Thanks,
Rusty

The more I think about it, the more I think this extension should be something FX, or someone else offers for sale. I have a CNC mill, but I'm not sure how well I could make this extension. I'm certainly capable of ordering one though I have two of the 700 mm liners, and planned to cut them off to fit my 600 mm barrel, but it would be nice to test one full length first.

A friend of mine make it in about 1 hour without the draw, and works perfectly. 700 mm is what I like, and this simple extension save me a few coins on a new barrel

I’m interest in buying one of those extension if your friend is willing to make it. Please pm the price.

I watched Matt's excellent slug liner video today, and it changed my plans for the two 700mm liners I have. I had planned to cut one off at each end, to try with and without the choke at 600mm. In the video, he talked about chokes and the fact that some barrels don't need them. He stated with 100% certainty that the STX barrel will not perform well without a choke, so he probably saved me $110. I cut one of at the breech end today, and opened up the rifling as carefully as I could to match how the factory breech end fits. I'll plan to keep the other liner full length, and find a way to make an extension.
Thanks,
Rusty

Sorry not selling, I left the draw so anyone can make it, not that hard
