5 shots @42 yds Just ordered 800 more. She shoots 10.34 jsb @900 and monsters @800. so maybe 840 with these?

My gun chronied at 785 on the High setting. But I had similar results as you. I've tested out to 65 yards and will test out to 100yards soon.

Do you have a mk4 also? I am floored. I didn't expect much at all. I wish they fed better. I'm going to get a carm magazine. I bought one for my airwolf .25 and it fed slugs much smoother than the stock one

Ditto on the mag feed. I try to make sure my muzzle is pointing a bit downward towards my target and it seems to help. I also have an AirWolf in .22 but I don't have any issues with that mag feeding properly.

I had excellent results with those at 70-80 yds with a Walther Dominator 1250. I was happy in view of how hard it is to get its favorite JSB pellet, got options now.

I've been holding mine muzzle up. I'll have to try down. Have you shot any critters with them? I wonder about performance at 800ish

Slugs have a much larger bearing surface than slugs, so probably a bit less velocity than your estimate. But accuracy looks great!

My biggest slug success has also been with the .177 NSA 12.5s. The gun is a Brocock Concept Elite in my case. I messed with the hammer length to soup it up a bit. It throws them at 880-890 for roughly 22fpe.
I can hit 2 inch spinners at 125 and 140 yards pretty regularly with it. Took a Euro dove off a fence at 67 yards last week. Been too busy this summer but last summer I was shooting pdogs with it from 30 to out past 100 yards. It'd kill em, but not quite as cleanly as a roughly 20fpe pellet at similar distance. Seemed to ice-pick them a bit. Still very cool to grab the gun on a day where the wind's really howling and be able to swing those long range paddles with minimal hold off (relative to pellets at similar fpe).

I have found the trick. After the daystate mag is full I use a small Allen wrench to push them down till they touch and they feed much better

Well I have taken 2 tigers and 2 red squirrels with the nsa slugs at 753. And they all expired on the spot. They are not impressive in the wound department but maybe they are doing the impressive stuff inside.
