the piranha is both .177 and .22, 105. gr and 14.3 gr respectively.
Its weird the .177 is so heavy but the 22 is low-mid range weight wise

Lead is very malleable readily flowing when enough pressure is exerted against it.As stated the only limiting factor is what the slug weight is before being formed into an Air Gun pellet or fishing sinker etc ...
