  • Here i test the ZAN .177 air rifle slugs through the sub 12 Anschutz 9015. Testing in strong wind is always fun and the results were pretty good. i hope to do some long range testing when i get some calmer conditions.
    the rifle is a Tench Anschutz 9015, the scope is an optisan cp hft scope.
    i have recently been testing the pb mako slugs and the jsb Ko slugs, so far these are probably the most consistent and offer good value for money.
    hopefully soon i can test the new fx halo slugs as they look good too.
    if you are considering testing slugs yourself id definitely suggest giving these a try first. they offer good expansion even at longer ranges and have a decent bc.

    have been running the 10gr Zans out of my Brocock since they released them , used to use makos and while they were indeed very accurate - they were just too damn expensive, have switched up to the 13gr zans now and they are just amazing - just a few days ago i decided to push them out as far as i could and got an inch and a half 5 shot group at 100 yards ( gun is sub 12 ft lb )

      Thats easier said than done in deteriorating conditions mate, im experimenting with alternate ammo each shot,like the military do when testing in wind.but I've a few things to figure out yet on that.
      I've shot tons of heavies though in all manner of weather the zans pretty much matched them to my eye in that sort of wind,yet done it at 10.5 ftlb.

    Thanks for another interesting video,I have the pro hunter slugs in.22 17.8 grn for my hw110 haven't tried them yet hopefully will get down the farm at the weekend and give them a good test.Have you had any issues with your katran I've seen a few people mention magazine issues and I think a few.22 owner's are having problems with the anti double load system, thanks 👍

    • @tillysgunstocks
      @tillysgunstocks  Год назад +1

      Hi mate, my katran has been great so far. I've had to strip the fill valve twice now though,but that's really my fault as I filled it with crud filling by hand pump.
      The magazine issues have mainly been the krait and airmaks have even been brave enough to do a public acknowledgement of it(that's rare in itself) and are working on a fix for it. I'm very fond of the katran, and like anything mechanical there will be failures. But for them to publicly say yeah its not right but give us a chance to sort it,says alot about their commitment and integrity as a company.
      I will do a proper review on mine soon, now I've had it 7 months I'm able to give a proper appraisal of it. I should say,I have no connection to the company and paid for the katran and don't have to sell it to fund my next yt review😉

    I bought a new (to me) rifle in a .177. After running 20 or so different pellets and slugs thru it, the 13gr Zan's were one hole at 25 yards. Using these for pesting here in Eastern Oregon, USA, this past week, these small squirrels have been getting pelleted out to 79 yards with very clean head shots. Now my question to you is; Do you or did you polish the breech/leade for better pellet/slug entrance?

    Another great video, and more great shooting.
    Have you tried the slugs from Pro hunter swaging? I've recently bought some of their .22 17.5gn slugs, to use in my BSA sub12 rifle. They are looking promising, might be worth you giving them a look.
    Also I bought the same case that you are holding your slugs/pellets in, is there any chance you could laser cut some foam for me? Thanks 👍🏻 😊

    • @tillysgunstocks
      @tillysgunstocks  Год назад +2

      Hi Adam. I'm trying to convince my wife to cut a batch of foams out,but she's pretty busy with work of late,but I will get some made up as soon as possible.
      I wouldnt mind trying them slugs tbh. I'll work my way through all of them in time,hopefully on a calmer day so I can push them out to over 50m.

    Nicely done young man. Do you reckon that the wind could have made the slugs start to de stabilise ?

    • @tillysgunstocks
      @tillysgunstocks  Год назад +1

      I did have a good look at the slugs in the backboard, there was no obvious signs they went in eccentric, I think it was the wind whipping the card off the backboard a bit that had it torn up. The wind was really getting up at the end.

      The shape of the bsa loading probe is pretty good at getting the slugs loading concentric in the bore. Quite alot of the bsa models will shoot slugs to an acceptable degree of accuracy 😉

  • @michaeleber4752
    @michaeleber4752 Год назад

    Wonder if you followed the work that Matt Dubber, FX Guns, and Patriot did with firing slugs. They found they needed to change rifling for the slug and the choke had to use a different method. With the weights and shapes and barrel they could shoot extremely accurately in .22 out to 200 yards while being able to fight the wind. Fortunately they said that as slug makers automate their process and use of slugs picks up, the prices will come down in price. I''m saving money to get the FX Impact M3 with botha .22 pellet and slug barrels.

    Are you lubricating the slugs to reduce the friction from the bearing surface?

      I've tried with and without various lubes. So far results are inconclusive. I've been finding much better gains with the way they are loaded. I'll cover this in some upcoming videos 😉

      yes, 12.99 is ok

    • @tillysgunstocks
      @tillysgunstocks  Год назад

      These ones were a sample tin from ihunter. Currently 12.99 for a box of 400 or you can get sample packs for a few quid.
      I'll definitely be getting a few more boxes as I want to push these out to 75yds in calm conditions through a few of my other barrels.
      Given just how savage and unpredictable that wind was during testing I'm happy with the performance.

    • @tillysgunstocks
      @tillysgunstocks  Год назад

      Damn mate, they should be around 13quid for 400 in the smaller calibres. The larger calibres are ofcourse more expensive
