Mako 10.5s?

[Violacola25 5]

Does anyone have any reviews using the Mako 10.5 slugs? Preferably through a 177 Fx impact sub 12. Also im finding it tricky to

purchase over the counter, lots to pay for online but not a fan of online payments. Does anyone have a supply that can recommend?.

Why are you finding it tricky to purchase over the counter?

How old are you?........

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.

Personally I think you're wasting your time with Slugs unless you have an FAC FX and a Slug Barrel a heavier Pellet maybe a better bet.

Tried them in sub12, but didn’t work in my guns , accuracy not good and only running at less  than 10.7 ftlbs

Have you had much success with any of the .177 slugs running at 12ft lbs vm? The only ones I’ve tried were the h&n rabbit magnums in my hw100 and they were abysmal to say the least. To the point that I wasn’t really sure where some of them went, certainly not on the target.

No luck at all . Slugs need to be shot at speed imo , but I did give Jimmy some H&N 10.5 gr and they worked in his FX

Hmm, my thoughts too regarding speed. Also, the fx barrels may well be more suited to them?

I tried em.... Dropped like a stone and didn't fly straight.

OK ok.. I'm a knob... I didn't try them ones... I tried others... I'll have to get some em now... Jeesh....

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

Funny how some rifles shoot them well even with out liners 

And sub 12 

And others don't 

Hmmmm

I think you need to try get a leg over in your busy 9-5 at some point. Might be a little more chilled out then lads in here are always ready to help jumping down throats you won't get far

I'll take that on advisement Jimmy. I tried slugs given to me in my Springer Hunter which is a cheapo Remington that happens to be right up the limit and very straight and they more or less fell out the end hahaha
