villaman 9,983 Posted February 14, 2022 Report Share Posted February 14, 2022 H&N are coming out with a new slug design. Larger hollow and softer lead .These should expand a lot more than the original ones . Looking forward testing them , should be on par with ZAN slugs Quote Link to post
philpot 4,981 Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 I watched the South African guy give a presentation on these as he was working with H&N to design them. From what I saw, they do seem to have very high expansion as you say Mitch, so much so that they were shooting some geese and ostridges that were causing issues on a farm. I think this development in slug technology is going to change air rifle shooting over the coming years. Phil 1 Quote Link to post
villaman 9,983 Posted February 15, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 H&N are coming out with different weights as well Phil . But you can’t beat ZAN slugs at the moment on accuracy and price Quote Link to post
philpot 4,981 Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 I am just looking forward to testing the zan you sent Mitch but a total waste of time with these really heavy winds which we have been having for about three weeks now and I think it starts tomorrow, upto 70mph gales, oh joy. My Impact is ready for collection but I am leaving it this week but looking forward to getting it back. Phil Quote Link to post
