Thanks for sharing. Thanks for the credit notation, and for mentioning the Surefire product made from my molds. I know that the Boyenga boy’s “Car Fund” sincerely appreciates the mention too.

I made a slight design alteration and cut a new mold for myself to test. Shooting one of my carbines at the velocities you’ve discussed, I got these results today.

Hope it’s of interest. I realize it’s not a Condor, but the slugs…Read more

Best I could do to give an honest display of the “work” the slugs can do, as compared to familiar quality pellets.

Thanks,

Kodiaks vs. the big 80 grain slug at the same psi and power settings. Kodiaks @ 1,111 fps vs. 80 grn. @ 804 fps. I thought that might be close to the numbers you were discussing.

I don’t want to step on any toes here, so I posted the pics of the tests…Read more

Hope I didn’t miss the point I wish to make:

Regarding “comparisons” … the only thing that would be relevant would be another slug which is also producing 100 fpe. Punching paper just as well (or better) at 100 yards, will not make a contender in the “big energy” pellet category.
