In addition to being non-regulated, it does only ~50 ft-lb in .22.I should have specified .22 cal in my OP. My bad.The reason for .22 is the trajectory slug BC gives in that caliber at high but subsonic velocities. People should remember that air rifles do have an advantage when it comes to physics, ballistics and compressed air over powder burners - more consistent breach pressuresA well regulated PCP these days offers more stable and consistent pressure propelling the projectile.Is there a 22 cal air rifle slug with a better BC Tha. 25 cal? I'm not sure I understand how a 22 cal slug will be better.A projectile of the same weight, but smaller caliber and thus longer, has higher BC, always. That's how ballistics works.I understand how ballistics work, but are you a good enough shooter to tell the difference between a 0.096 BC vs 0.12? I don't get the point of your thread if you already know the FX guns can do what you want.

That’s less than 5cents per round on the 20gr .22 slugs I useI stand corrected on that. They were much more expensive when they came out.FX Hybrids are still pricier - .15/round.
