Airgun Slugs Javelin Gen 2 5.5 mm 26 grain (.217)

Javelin Gen 2 5.5 mm 26 grain (.217) airgun slugs are developed to combine a high ballistic coefficient with as much impact as possible. For this, experiences from field and target ranges were combined with ballistic testing by means of a Doppler radar, resulting in these high quality airgun slugs.

The Javelin Gen 2 5.5 mm 26 grain (.217) airgun slugs are forged, giving them a uniform consistency and density and a very smooth finish within extremely low tolerances. The tangent ogive (the bullet shape) and neatly finished meplat (front) help raise the ballistic coefficient to 0.081. Perfect for long distance use with minimal influence from external factors, making them extremely accurate.

The soft lead and hollow point make for a rapid expansion when the Javelin Gen 2 5.5 mm 26 grain (.217) airgun slugs hit their target, giving an explosive impact.

Improvements of the second generation of Javelin slugs:

• Hollow point cavity was re-shaped carefully for a more controlled expansion
• Depth of the hollow point was calculated specifically for each individual slug weight to provide perfect weight distribution
• Meplat has been redesigned and rounded-off for improved aerodynamics
• Base has been redesigned for better stability in turbulent conditions
• Tighter tooling tolerances for better production consistency
