Big Bore | Flat Nose | 11.4mm | 411gr | 50pcs | Air Venturi

Air Venturi Big Bore Flat Nose – heavy slug for powerful PCP air rifles

This Air Venturi Big Bore slug combines an impressive weight of 411 grain with a 11.4mm (.45) calibre, specifically developed for the most powerful PCP air rifles. The Flat Nose design makes this projectile ideal for target shooting at long distances, with the flat tip ensuring clean, round holes in paper targets. Due to its extreme weight and solid lead construction, this slug is suitable for PCP systems from 300 joules upwards, delivering consistent performance at ranges well beyond 100 metres.

Our experience from the Shogun team

In practice, this 411 grain slug proves its worth especially in windy conditions, where the high weight ensures a stable trajectory. The projectile retains its energy excellently over long distances, resulting in predictable flight paths. With rifles such as the Airforce Texan, this combination delivers optimal performance, with the 25mm length providing good stabilisation in the barrel. The weight does require sufficient air pressure – expect a PCP system capable of delivering at least 300 joules for optimal results.

Technical properties in practice

With a diameter of 11.4mm and a weight of 411 grain, this projectile is among the heaviest in its class. The Flat Nose pellet shape ensures maximum energy transfer on impact, while the lead material offers the right balance between weight and malleability. The packaging contains 50 pieces, sufficient for extensive shooting sessions. Please note: due to the 25mm length, these projectiles are only suitable for single-shot use – they do not fit in standard airgun magazines.

Who is this air rifle slug suitable for?

This slug is particularly suitable for experienced shooters with powerful Big Bore PCP systems such as the Airforce Texan. The extreme weight requires an air rifle capable of delivering at least 300 joules and a shooter familiar with ballistic calculations for long distances. Precision enthusiasts wishing to shoot at distances beyond 100 metres will find a reliable partner in this slug. Testing different air pressures with a chronograph helps to find the ideal velocity at which this heavy slug performs best in your specific air rifle.
