I have 177 -25 caliber guns without changing the barrel or liner will shoot slugs. At what fps and yrds and accuracy are you getting? Want to try some slugs but don’t want to damage a barrel shooting them
What gun with factory barrel shoots slugs?

I had an Air Arms S510 Ultimate Sporter 22 that shot the NSA 21gr slugs around 4" at 100 yds.....900fps maybe?

my .25 condor did great with slugs,
i ran the 33gn rat sniper wicked monster slugs at about 950-960ish fps
would throw inch groups at 100 if i did my part.
dang i miss that gun

I shoot slugs with my Daystate wolverine but I find their isn't much meat on em and i wasn't keen on the flavour anyway.

Daystate rifles shoot slugs well. Air Arms I understand do too but I think you need 23 grain and heavier to do well in 22 cal.

EDgun Leshiy is great with ratnsniperslugs 31gr (around 750fps) and 36gr (around 700fps). Both are capable of 1-1.5MOA @ 100 yd on a calm day.
Kalibrgun Cricket works great with H&N 31.5gr grizzlys (around 870fps), 1MOA capable @ 100 yards on a calm day

Edgun R5 Matador.30 shoots NSA 47 grain slugs Extremely well....in my opinion they shoot better then JSBs at longer distances

My Kaibergun cricket with 34.7 nsa slugs stacks them and man does it make a loud crack on pigeons and squirrels! Starlings it just utterly ridiculous destroys! Edgun Leyla.25 will be getting to try 25 grain rat sniper slugs soon! If and when they prove there self I'm never hunting without!

If been doing research and asking q's about the R5M for slugs only. From what I hear, I shoots 23grains just as good as jsb.

25 caliber AirForce Condor, mine shot slugs better than JSB's. I have since converted it to .257 and a TJ barrel and its pushing 200+ fpe. For Stock, personally, I havent seen a gun that shoots slugs better than the AirForce guns. They have the power to push them to the velocities needed for slugs.

Air Arms with LW barrel, all factory in .177. NSA 15g slugs. 3.5" 10 shot groups at 100yd, 5/8" 10 shot groups at 50yd. It's not benchrest accurate but will take care of all your hunting needs. They fly out of the barrel at 800fps or so. It would seem to me with my testing up to the 21g slugs that you need to be over 750fps at the barrel as a starting point for accuracy.

Short answer, any higher power PCP which has a barrel without a choke, or any significant choke.

From what I understand my NOVA Liberty doesn't have a choked barrel but it still doesn't shoot slugs well. 1" at 15 yards is about what my Marauder shoots them which has a chocked barrel.

Perfect. With the word "Rifled" in front of barrel in that statement in my opinion.
The Kalibrgun Cricket .25 cal. barrels must have that less significant choke because mine shots them very well.
