    Hi all just curious has any 32ft lb pcp owners tried the jsb knock out slugs or fx hybrids in .22cal or the h+n slugs in normal barrels and had any success with grouping these slugs?
    I would like to know as I wouldn’t mind trying them in my air arms s150 but don’t want to waste money if there no good

    What do you get in a tin, 250 for 10 to 15 euro? Hardly break the bank at that rate and you might find a pellet that your rifle loves.

    FX slugs are c. €17 per packs of 100. The 22 grain slugs grouped well and in my 20ft/lb HW100. They seem to hit hard too but IMO the fps is too low to get the full potential.

    €17 per 100 is steep enough didn't realise the price of lead had gone up so much, nearly half the price to run a rimfire

    I might give them a go in my s510 and see how they go for me

    FWIW I tried JSB Exact Jumbo Monsters (25.39gr) back in the day and found that the FW100 had trouble stabilising them.
    Went back to the 16g JSB Exact Jumbo (18.13gr) pretty much straight away.
