Hatsan questions about my first airgun

First off i wanna thank everyone for all their helpful advice on assisting me to buy my first pcp gun. and of course the inner "bro" in me got me to ignore most of the guns with good track records, instead i opted for something that "looked cool" lol. hey i get performance is important but i also think getting a gun just cuz it looks cool isnt necessarily bad either. im sure i will buy plenty of these in the future so im not too worried about it.

Anyways the for my first gun i ended up going with a hatsan sortie in 25 cal. got it for a pretty good price and it came with a vortex crcossfire optic so i decided to "pull the trigger" lol. So for those who have used the sortie, what type of pellets should i be feeding this thing for maximum penetration? Can i shoot 25 cal slugs in this thing? any advice about this gun is welcomed. should be coming in like a week. thanks everyone!!
 
Im pretty sure the gun won't shoot slugs as its way under powered.

Max Velocity 25 cal – 625 FPS

Thats probably with some every light pellets. Get a chronograph and get some JTS 25.4 grainers and see what happens. Probably 500 FPS range with those.. Can always try the HN Field Target.. I think they are 22 grain. May work better in such a low power gun.
