Here's a look at the Precision Ballistics Mako 10.5 grain slugs. Another slug manufacturer based in the UK. I test the Mako slugs on the range for accuracy at 30 yards and 50 yards, plus do some impact tests in water bottles and modeling clay. A very accurate slug that performs well in sub 12 ft/lbs rifles out to 50 yards or more.
For more information on the slugs and how they perform for pest control, check out the links bellow:

The expansion in the clay is awesome. As is the energy spread in the first 2 inches of impact. Definitely one for the hunter. 👌

They certainly surprised me. These have been the most accurate slug to date through my PCPs and the best group achieved was with my Falcon Prairie at 50 yards, and still the best group at 50 yards with any projectile. Four within the length of the .177 Baracuda is beyond me. Shame about the one on the outside, but it still made about a 10mm group overall. Video bellow: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d9B-bMSTyrC-hpc.html Looking forward to your results with them. I am an avid viewer. If you are looking for some good slugs for a sub 12 ft/lbs PCP also check out Pro-Hunter and Wildman. Both UK small family swaged slug manufacturers from the UK. You can find them on some of my other videos. All the best. MARK H.

Great video, I am looking forward to how they work in your other guns. Same result I had with the expansion. They work really well in my HW110. I have shot pests at close range and no pass through like I would normally have with .177 so they really do work.

Great video as always, I've got a Remington Airacobra .177 pcp, I've just got an FX Radar MK2, with 6.9 grn RWS Super H Points it's averaging 10.3 ft/lbs , would u suggest I need to tune the power up slightly before trying these slugs ? If so , how ..? Hammer spring compression , lighter valve spring. Or transfer port alteration ? Watched many of your videos , and they have helped me no end. So any feedback would be good . Kind regards Rob

This slug seems to be working much better than some of the other ones you have tested, no doubt the lighter weight allows more MV and more stability of the slug. What is the BC like for this slug?

hi mark,,nice stuff there mate,,its a shame he dont make them in .22 around the 16gn mark as i would try some in my air ranger for hunting,,have you tried the nielson speciallity ammo slugs as they are a good price,,around £18 for 400 slugs although saying that i think the lightest they do in .177 is 15-5gn which in a sub 12 is a bit over weighty really but they do them in .22 around 17-5 gn,, i might give those a go for the price but they have always sold out,,thats "the rat works",,they certainly shoot well through the air wolf,,👍👍

Yes, slugs aren't as cheap as a pellet, but a good alternative for long range rabbit shooting. Definitely not your everyday target shooting choices unless money is no option. That is the price of slugs and a determination of what you used them for.

When you took the first shot, you should have taken more aiming at the same spot if it’s groups your interested in, who cares where the group is. Saves ammo.

noticed you loading slugs singularly, is there any loss in accuracy using the magazine. Would be good to see a comparison.
@airgunsniper-elite7385
@airgunsniper-elite7385 3 жыл бұрын
Hello Dave, One thing that you can find with a slug, that you don't get with a pellet is that the slug can slip backwards within the magazine and possibly cause problems. This is because the 0-rings within the magazine has nothing to grip onto. With a pellet it has a head, a waist and a skirt that the 0-ring can grip. Depending on the shape of the slug, and if the slug is lubricated it has nothing to grip onto that can cause problems. I only single shot loaded it to prevent these problems, which I have found with different slugs in the past. That doesn't mean to say that they won't work through a magazine though. It will depend on the rifle, slug and magazine in use. Hope that helps.

@airgunsniper-elite7385 Жыл бұрын
I'm not sure, but due to the extra friction of slugs, expect around one or two foot pounds less energy than you get with a pellet. They should be accurate out to 30 yards, though. You could try a cheaper sample pack to find out.
