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 is therefore not a general-purpose .22 pellet for every air rifle. The rifle should be suitable for slugs, and the .217 diameter and 27-grain weight should be appropriate for the individual barrel and setup.
Diameter and Barrel Compatibility
The product is commonly described as a .22-caliber slug, but this specific version has a .217-inch / 5.51 mm diameter.
H&N offers Slug HP II projectiles in different diameters and weights to accommodate different barrel profiles and power levels. Check the actual slug diameter and your rifle’s barrel characteristics before purchasing.
Important note: a rifle being marked .22 or 5.5 mm does not by itself guarantee that every .22 slug will perform the same way.

What Should You Check Before Buying?
Before ordering, check that your PCP rifle is suitable for shooting slugs and that the .217 diameter and 27-grain weight are appropriate for your rifle and barrel.
If you are changing from conventional pellets to slugs, do not assume that the same rifle settings will automatically produce the same results. Projectile weight, diameter, barrel characteristics and rifle power can all affect performance.
