.177 Slugs are getting heavier and heavier…

[Jörg Siemens]

…that's why we're introducing a light one, the new H&N Slug HP .177 10 grain!

Not too long ago we developed and released the H&N Slug HP in various weights for friends of the .177 caliber.

Since then we received many requests for an even lower weight version. We followed the call and are proud to present you the H&N Slug HP .177 in 10 grain.

• The hollow point and base save weight but make the slug long enough to ensure good guidance in the barrel.
• Due to its light weight, this slug is perfect for lower powered air rifles (>12 ft-lb).
• Exact diameter: .1775 / 4.51 mm
• Tin count: 400 pcs.

Production has just started, availability depends on transport time to your retailer (e.g. Europe 3-4 weeks, USA 3 months)

I wish you a nice summer time (or winter time if you live in the southern hemisphere)!

These will definitely be of interest and look forward to testing some

Hello Jörg, it's great to see you here! Thanks for the information about the new slugs. What Ballistic Coefficient are you finding for them in H&N factory testing?

We measured the velocity at different distances and calculated a BC of 0.080.

Package arrived today and I will be testing at my range Saturday

I had the opportunity to go to my range this afternoon and wanted to try the H&N 10 gn slugs at sub-12 velocity

It was pretty windy and it was gusting !

Still very happy with my results with a light slug is this kind of weather

Shooting them at 721 FPS and 11.55 FPE in my trusty Daystate Delta Wolf .177 HP

Thank you Søren for sharing your results. It will please UK shooters who are waiting for slugs that also work in sub-FAC rifles.

If these work in my sub12/16j I would like to run slug for field target if they prove to be more stable

Are slugs allowed in Field Target?

In the uk as long as it’s made from lead no problem

Tell the Americans it should be ok too. We’re stuck to pellets only!
