.22 Where are the 20.83gr KOs?

[Dairyboy]

@JSB/Predator Official why are these slugs non existent in the US? These are the best hunting slugs ive used and I dont want them to be gone. Many people looking for them and nowhere to be found. All sold out.

Might be able to help ya grab a few more tins.

If the data on these sites is up-to-date they still have some of the 20.83s in stock.

JSB as a whole needs to up their (slug selection) game, plain and simple!
I shoot slugs in .22 cal only and Jsb weight options aren't great.
I am still waiting on my slug barrel for my Ghost and as many know JSB makes alot of the ammo for the higher end air guns (AirArms, Daystate, FX, etc) with their labels on the tins. The Brk slug barrel in .22 was tested extensively with Jsb lead (25gr KO) slugs and does well with them. I've been wanting a tin of these lighter slugs ever since @Pumacarl sung their praises lol.
Nada, they dont exist up here either for sale.
I have quite the selection of slugs to test, but like pellets hope to narrow down to just a few that are really good and dope em out to 100+ Yards. If these fail, i can always feed them to my S510.

While we're here...Ahem...JSB....we'd love a heavier slug as well in .22cal too, say 30-34Gr specifically built for, hypothetically a L.W. 1:17.7 twist non-choked barrel Thanks.

I checked the links that @BBGunn posted and they are still good. I have always been able to eventually find these slugs, but it is always a hunt for sure. You are right that JSB needs to come up with some really heavy versions of these.

Thanks for those! I have a decent stash for now but might pick up some more to be safe. Just dont understand why so hard to find.

Not to stray off topic, but has anyone here put a 25gr Jsb slug side to side with one of these 20.83?
I am curious on height/ogive/H.P. differences. The 25gr KOs do not expand well, ive tested, and the H.P. cavity is laughable! The Mk3 .177 slugs have properly sized H.P. and expand well from what I hear/see. These 20.83 look like they have a decent H.P. as well!? I wonder if they are the same long as the 25gr, with just a more hollowed out center?
@Pumacarl many of the smaller U.S. Airgun shops don't ship to Canada like P.A. does, i'd have to look into that....

LOL
stores just dont want to carry to much inventory if people are buy them stock em.
,y goes would be theres limited stocking room and they stock what they sell the most of?

These are the Mk2 25.39gr on the left vs 20.83gr on the right. HP is massive compared to the 25gr. Similar length. The skirts on the 25gr are massive at .226

Ahhh just as I suspected. Thanks for the pics, they do look sweet! I compared the FX hybrids to some of my slightly heavier slugs a while back and while lighter they were the same length thanks to the massive H.P.
I can just hear that pop!

I haven't used many slugs as it just took too much work to get them to shoot worth anything. But these slugs shoot very well from CZ barrels and the pop is addicting.
