Haendler & Natermann is one of the traditional German manufacturers of airgun ammunition. The H&N brand has long been associated with accuracy, high-quality workmanship and good value for money, which makes it a popular choice for both recreational and more experienced shooters.
Slug HP II with hollow point
H&N Slug HP II are lead slugs with hollow point, which differ significantly from standard pellets by their shape that is close to a bullet. They are designed for high-powered air rifles that can accurately stabilise this type of ammunition when shooting at longer distances.
Compared to classic pellets, they offer a very favourable ballistic coefficient, which promotes a flatter trajectory and excellent energy retention in flight. This makes them suitable for shooters who want to get the most out of a powerful PCP air rifle.
The HP II variant builds on the Slug HP series, but brings a modified design for even better performance when shooting from powerful air rifles. Emphasis is placed on consistent groupings and efficient energy transfer on target. Each slug is lubricated, visually inspected, hand-packed and secured with foam inserts by the manufacturer for protection during transport.
Slugs are suitable only for air rifles with a barrel designed for this type of ammunition, typically with a non-choked barrel. A choked barrel, which is beneficial for classic pellets, narrows at the muzzle and may not be suitable for solid slugs.
