Zoe Kelly –
Used this slug on a pheasant at 180 meters. The impact was clean and the bird dropped quickly. The T-Slot design performed as expected with good expansion. Works well with my H&N air rifle.
Carol Mitchell –
Felt solid and consistent in performance. The slug expanded properly on a duck shot at 150 meters. Slightly heavier than expected, but still within the recommended weight range.
Brian Sanderson –
Excellent for hunting in the field. The hollow point design ensures reliable expansion. No wobble or misfire. Satisfied with the performance and consistency.
Pippa Hodges –
Felt a bit more expensive than other slugs, but the performance and reliability justify the price. Good for serious hunting with high-power rifles.
