Power Requirement
H&N states that the rifle should have at least 25 joules of muzzle energy for the Slug HP II range and recommends 40–60 joules for best results.
This means the H&N Slug HP II .217 should not be treated as a general-purpose .22 pellet for every air rifle. The rifle needs to be suitable for slugs, and the .217 diameter and 25-grain weight should be appropriate for the individual barrel and setup.
Diameter Matters
Although this product is commonly described as .22 or 5.5 mm, this particular variant has a .217-inch / 5.51 mm diameter.
H&N offers Slug HP II variants in different diameters and weights. Therefore, buyers should consider the actual slug diameter rather than selecting a product only because their rifle is marked .22 caliber.

What Should You Check Before Buying?
Before ordering, check that your PCP rifle is suitable for slugs and that the .217 diameter and 25-grain weight are appropriate for your rifle and barrel.
A .22 caliber designation alone does not guarantee that every .22 slug will produce the same results. Different slug diameters, weights, barrel characteristics and rifle power levels can affect compatibility and performance.
