H&N Slug HP II 6.35mm 32gr – slug for PCP air rifle with hollow point

The H&N Slug HP II is a cylindrical slug from the German manufacturer H&N Sport, designed for shooters who want to get the most out of a powerful PCP system. With a caliber of 6.35 mm / .25 and a weight of 32.0000 grains, this is a substantial projectile that performs best in a PCP air rifle producing from approximately 40 Joules. The hollow point design combined with the slug shape provides a good balance between stability and energy transfer, making this slug particularly effective at around 75 metres. As air rifle ammunition, this is a choice for those who enjoy long-range shooting and wish to benefit from the cylindrical design.

Our experience from the Shogun team

What stands out to us about this slug is the stable flight behaviour you would expect from a well-formed projectile. The cylindrical construction with a Ballistic Coefficient of 0.100 helps retain velocity for longer, which translates into a flatter trajectory at greater distances. With sufficient energy output, this slug performs reliably up to around 75 metres, with an optimal point at approximately 50 metres according to the manufacturer's specifications. It is worth testing different grain weights within your setup, as each PCP system responds slightly differently to weight and velocity; a chronograph will give you valuable insight into the actual energy leaving your barrel.

Technical specifications in practice

The projectile is made of Lead, a material that deforms well in the barrel, providing a good seal and consistent release. With a caliber of 6.35 mm / .25, a weight of 32.0000 grains, and a length of 7.6 mm, this slug has sufficient mass to retain energy over distance. The Hollow point design ensures effective energy transfer on impact, while the cylindrical construction contributes to aerodynamic stability. The packaging contains 120 pellets, more than enough to sight in properly and map your groupings at various distances.

Who is this air rifle ammunition suitable for?

This slug is intended for shooters with a powerful PCP system producing from 40 Joules, who are looking for precision at longer ranges up to 75 metres. As it features a Hollow point with effective energy transfer, this ammunition is also suitable for pest and rodent control. Please be aware that the use of an air rifle for pest control is legally regulated: in many cases a permit or hunting licence is required, and this is only permitted for certified pest controllers or licensed users. For the precision enthusiast who wants to fine-tune their setup seriously, this slug provides a reliable foundation to work with.
