Anyone have any user experiences with them? Are there alternatives available here in NZ that are as good or better?
Looking to try them in an FX Impact M3 with standard 700mm barrel.

I haven't used them, but there are Spyda slugs available in NZ. They are made down south. I know others are getting great results with them.

I have some, and they are good, but I haven't tuned my gun for them yet. to get the full potential.

Definitely cheaper too.

Brian is a nice guy, and you can buy sample packs off him.

If you need contact details, let me know.

Unfortunately slugs are not easy to find in NZ, especially in .177cal!!!

Guncity stock the H&N slugs in.22 and .25 cal
And I think David at NZairguns sometimes has the JSB knockouts.
Brian/Spyda seems to be reliable source of slugs here in NZ, but I find his hollow points are very shallow.

Walk quietly, but carry a big stick.

just received a couple of boxes of .177 10gr hollow-point ZAN slugs from huma-air.com in the netherlands (dean): info@huma-air.com
have not tried them yet - literally arrived today - looking forward to trialling them against my standard hunting slug, H&N's silver point.

Looking forward to seeing the results.
If they don't work out Ive got half a tin of silver point you can have.
I have no use for them as don't have a 177 cal anymore.

Hi Ianp,
I'd also be very interested in finding out how those ZAN 10 grainer slugs go!
They have not been avalible here in NZ or I would have tried them by now.
If you can spare half a box Id love to try some
Let us know how they go!
