Wildman | 5.5mm | Hollow Point Pellets 27gr | 200 pcs | Silver

HP | 5.5mm | 27gr | 200st | Wildman – precision hollow point slugs for long-range PCP shooting

These hand-pressed slugs from Wildman deliver enhanced ballistic performance for PCP air rifles at distances beyond 75 metres. The 27 grain projectiles feature a hollow point design in 5.5mm/.22 calibre, providing superior stability and energy retention compared to traditional diabolo pellets.

Construction and materials

Each slug is manufactured from lead with a silver finish, weighing precisely 27 grains. The hollow point configuration ensures optimal energy transfer on impact. Hand-pressing production methods result in consistent dimensions and weight distribution across all 200 pieces in the package.

Application and use

Designed specifically for air rifle use, these slugs excel in high-powered PCP systems of 40 joules or more. The higher sectional density compared to diabolo pellets makes them ideal for precision shooting at extended ranges, pest control applications, and situations requiring maximum downrange energy retention.

Integration and compatibility

Compatible with 5.5mm/.22 calibre PCP air rifles, these slugs require adequate barrel twist rates for stabilisation. Testing with a chronograph is recommended to determine optimal velocity settings for your specific rifle setup.

Maintenance and lifecycle

Store in a dry environment to prevent oxidation of the lead material. Regular barrel cleaning may be required more frequently than with standard pellets due to lead fouling.
