Yeah. If they're ever released..I'd love to try them. Until then, the .30 FX Hybrid starting ~890fps makes a pretty respectable "pop".

Yes indeed, there are many slugs on the market. However none of them claim to be able to be shot utilizing a conventional pellet tune. With the deep and wide hollow point and more of the projectile weight to the outside walls , as claimed on the halos, spin stabilization will be minimized as with the fps, compared to what’s required by slugs currently available.Easy…..easy….easy. Now calm down. Ok let’s be real these are nothing more than another airgun slug of which many many many are already and have been available for a long time. Lmao….ok now that we are back to reality from planet revolutionary my pellets aren’t going anywhere. As one might guess I get annoyed by over hyped marketing BS.
We will see ZZZ…sorry just my personal thoughts. Pellets still aren’t going anywhere.Yes indeed, there are many slugs on the market.

Absolutely I agree! I am a pellet shooter. Went down the slug rabbit hole. Not for me.We will see ZZZ…sorry just my personal thoughts. Pellets still aren’t going anywhere.
I just want to see FX do an update on this. Own up to it if it didn't work.
You'll Love the H&N ,from al I've tested(incl HALO) they always perform best.Even a tad better then the ZAN....I just ordered and received more boxes of Zan, as i simply can not wait for FX or Javelin to work their magic.
Actually 3 boxes more and my slug suitcase are full, and thats minus various H&N and KO slugs i also have sitting in a cupboard in the kitchen.
Really Sweden have declined ever since it stopped being a part of Denmark,,,,, thats what succession / rebel get you, just a fair warning to any rebel states out there.
I'd agree with you on the HN, I've found that the newer design HN heavy slugs perform great out of my heavy liners.You'll Love the H&N ,from al I've tested(incl HALO) they always perform best.Even a tad better then the ZAN....
Mee too,but the fact they still didn't even land in the U.S ,forecasts nothing good for the date off arrival in The Netherlands .I'd agree with you on the HN, I've found that the newer design HN heavy slugs perform great out of my heavy liners.
Still wish I could try some of the chipmunk bustin' halos pellugs. Reminds me of a slug equivalent of the polymags to pellets
Sadly not.You'll Love the H&N
Check your probe's depth and slug seating depth in the breech. I've had several people show me their Mavericks complaining about slugs not shooting right or efficiently, when their cocking rod was slid too far forward or back (usually too far back). That causes transfer port obstruction and improper seating depth.Sadly not.
I have tried 3 weights of the H&N slugs in my Maverick, both with the standard barrel and the heavy liner, and they just not will work at all for me.
The same is pretty much the case in my AGT vulcan 3
I saw one of the South African boys shoot his impact i think it was, when the H&N .177 slugs came out, and shooting them very well indeed, with a substantial reg pressure.
But i have tried that too, and also added a heavier hammer CUZ the factory .177 maverick hammer weight, well it is not really cracking a valve with 150 BAR behind it.
But it just will not work for me, and its not like its a little bad, i would rather say for me its near catastrophically bad, so bad that after 3-4-5 hours trying to get them to fly ( at least 400 of each weight ) well i have just given up on the H&N slugs, CUZ the magic they need, well i dont have it, actually it is probably a banned substance in Denmark, CUZ i have seen several here try them and then moving on.
And it is very sad, CUZ us none licenced Danes, well all we can shoot is .177.

Well they aren't real so that's a differenceAre these just slugs with a very deep cup to shave down the weight? I’ve read FX Hybrids are pretty good but wonder how these are much different.
