Benjamin Best Slug Kratos 22

Choked barrel and underpowered so not many will perform well.
That said, I did have good results with NSA 20.2 grain .217 in my 22 Kratos, and fx hybrids in the 25 cal.

Try the .22 cal 17.5 grain .2175 dia slugs. I have only used NSA, and Luis-ville slugger brands, I'm not up on all the other offerings. Thay shoot well in my Cayden.

Bummer, You might have to go with the pellets. My cayden shoots slugs good, but I can use the transfer port and dial in the 15.89 gr pellets for tighter groups. The slugs aren't as responsive with the transfer port adjustments. I found the 17.5 gr slugs to do best with the transfer port 3/4 of the highest setting, on the chrony their running about 957-890ish. I hope that you find what you are looking for.

Griffin makes 17gr slugs, @RabbitofCaerbannog has had a lot of good results even with low velocity. Varmint Knockers work very well as low velocities as well but the lighest he makes are 22gr

Yes. The 17 have been excellent for me. The 19s aren't shabby either. This belief that slugs need to be travelling at light speed to stabilize is crap.
I shot some 28.5 Varmint knockers Jace sent me as slow as 583 last night and they held tight. As long as they're stabilized by the spin they'll do what you want.
I shoot a .25 dreamline and shoot 30 and 32 grain slugs as slow as 840fps and they perform just fine.
In fact, I've found they both group tighter between 860 and 885 than they do at 950 and 920

Amen. Wish more people would understand this. Unfortunately what they hear is etched into the brain. Thinking otherwise is blasphemy lol.
