I’m 31, I run a business and a family, finding time to drive around a limited number of gun shops within 9-5 isn’t easy. Keep your smug comments to yourself. It was a genuine question. 

Don’t most of us have work and family commitments. I also run my own business, out pricing work evenings and weekends ,  paper work and do a full days work

My verminator 177 runs very good with slugs Jake 

Slug liner no

Smooth twist barrel yes 

And that's what I thinks works well in it with the slugs 

She is deadly very deadly with them 

Only got about 200 left and every time I try to order more 

Yep sold out lol

So gone back to jsb heavys for know 

Keeping the slugs for some thing else

I’m thinking it’s probably something to do with the fx barrels jimmy. Smooth twist, smooth twist X or slug liner. To slightly differing degrees maybe, but they appear to be better suited to slugs than more conventional rifled barrels? Standard rifled barrels certainly seem to need plenty of speed, as in fac levels, to stabilise slugs. But then, I could be wrong, it has been known

I just bought some Mako slugs to try but havnt yet, however I dont think I'll order anymore anyway because they worked out at 15pence each and I think thats a bit too much. Imagine buying a tin of 500 pellets for £75 Id also just like to say that I also run a business, in which I do hardly anything but mess about but I still buy all my pellets online haha

I also wouldnt bother with fac airguns so I dont think I'll bother slugs again.

Nothing wrong with FAC airguns will do a lot more than rimfire

I didnt say they were not good. Ive had a few over the years including a .25 made by JB but I only shoot rabbits Squirrels and rats and I think sub12ft is plenty. Its enough to kill a strong cock Pheasant stone dead at 50yds with .177 and that gives me a bigger thrill than my fac's used to including my 17hmr

Me neither 

By the way Jimmy ZAN are coming out with .177 slugs in the next few months 

If these are anything like .22 & .25 slugs then they will be fantastic. 
I will be having some so after testing will send some up to you Jimmy to try
