- The long-anticipated Hybrid Slugs are here, and I'm so glad I don't have to keep the secret any longer! In this video I speak about the differences between Hybrid Slugs and Traditional Slugs, and test them out in Cape Town on some Pigeons & Starlings with the guys from Air Hunters!

Enjoy the video guys! And on a more serious note, please keep a look out on social media for a very important announcement later today. The drought in my part of the world is extremely bad and it is threatening to bankrupt some of the farms I hunt on, including Witmoskloof where I filmed The Oxwagon Diaries. I think we need to band together and help contribute towards feed & water costs so that we can keep the animals alive until the drought is over. As hunters and outdoorsmen, it is our duty to help with conservation - Something that PETA will never do.
I'll post some details later when I have a plan of action. If everybody gave just $1, we'd have enough to save hundreds of animals from starvation.
Matt
@@haydndrew2056 thats not the point
AirArmsHuntingSA hi matt, do you happen to know if these slugs (if they come out in .25) would work in an fx wildcat mk1 in a standard barrel?
Sorry this is irrelevant but what entry level pcps do u own
Perhaps pair your shirt with the donations you talking about... purchase a shirt and a set amount each goes to help with the cause. That way it's a win win... shirt sales boost support for cause, and cause support boost shirt sales.
I'm always to help healthy wild animal populations. Rock on Matt!
Could you pls move a bit toward some of the guns that are lower on the budget scales with the Hybrids testing. I know You don't like'em (those guns) that much but lots of us don't have any choice but pick the budget-friendly PCP airguns. I'm talking about those of mid-range pricing like FX Dreamline, Air Arms 510 Xtra FAC, Brocock Bantam, Weihrauch HM100 FAC, Hatsan Galatian, BSA R10 FAC and many, many others around $1000+. Please consider it, I sure the airguners community would be more than pleased with such stuff on your channel.
Great video Matt . Very well explained, and great shooting. Will these hybrids be available in .177 cal as well .cheers Dean
Any info on what they would be like out of a UK limit air rifle, I've got a few customers at the range asking about them.
This is by far the best video for first time FX Impact MK II owners using .22 slugs ! Adjusted mine to 948 FPS with a 10 shot group with a dev. of 5 FPS , my groups at 40 yards are excellent , I would recommend doing a little cleaning of the slag on these pellets before your shot them , if you empty all 100 packed pellets on a dark cloth napkin you will see what I mean .
Great job again guys! Thanks to you Matt, I had to order my own Impact today!😅 It is so sad, that hunting here in Finland is very limited by air rifle. But at least the pests are now watching their back!
Hi Matt, how will these slugs shoot out of a standard fx smooth twist ( not x) barrel?
i am curious too
So am i 👆
They will not work. I talked to Airgun Depot because I had the same question.
@@900Redshark well, that sucks
@@900Redshark will it work with FX impact mkII?
Matt your technical knowledge is tremendous and so very helpful. Thank you for all your effort.
Man I'm pretty new to the channel but you have me completely intrigued by all of this. I'm astounded at your accuracy and your knowledge about this sport. It's got me wanting a pellet gun baddd. Great videos and keep at it!
Perfect as usual, I have uploaded my first slow motion video by the way ;)
Birds must never get hold of this technology.
Just a quick word to say your videos are fantastic and so well produced. Work in TV and appreciate the effort and skill that goes into these. Also you are a natural presenter.
That's a great product! No such thing as a bad shot. They go down.
Spectacular channel!
I would be down for a shirt as well.
With the hybrid design could this be scaled down for .177?
Sparrows are in decline here in briton
Thank you so much for awesome informational videos! I appreciate the technical information and the showing the fps grouping differences. Great contribution to the industry! Thanks again
Totally new to AirArmsHuntingSA. Emigrated to NZ back in 1997, but love seeing the Cape scenery. Makes me homesick! Great videos. So excellently narrated and edited. Spot on with your attitude - respect and humanness, but the sensible reality that some animals simply have to be controlled. Looking forward to more baboon jags!
Yes ,I would love to be able to buy a shirt
would you need the hunting or tactical lights? please help contact me will offer you free, vastfirelight@gmail.com
These hybrids slugs are another genius move by FX! It's clear that after a year or even two years of you shooting FX slugs, the other competitive companies such as Daystate etc. Are not going to spend the money or take the time to make a slug barrel. Perhaps it's too expensive perhapsit's too expensive, perhaps they sell the majority of their rifles with in England and places that do not allow full power air rifles, who knows, but I think that these hybrid slugs will sell like hotcakes!
Those hybrid slugs been around long before FX...the guy that Owns the Paton, is the owner of Ratsniperslugs..he teamed up with FX because fx has a good Distribution network...it was a business move that will Benefit him greatly...
Can’t help but to think of what may happen if politicians get a wind of these considering they look more like traditional bullets.
@@evanpilot 🤔🤷🏿♂️
Yeah I need some of these in .22!! Thanks for the great info!
The slow mo replays are fantastic 👍
We would like to see you cook the pigeons and eat it.

I heard Gerard Butler is trying to land the role as the young living Airguns legend Matt Dubber in the next blockbuster hit Air Arms Hunting SA.
I have been following your channel for a while and love your photage and how you educate the viewers. Two of my kids were born in South Africa and you have such a beutiful country. Keep up the great work.
Tremendous video. Really enjoy the way you present the totality of the experience. The hybrid slugs look like a real advance.
great slugs, but I wonder while you were at FX was there ever a conversation as to why nobody makes slugs in .177 ?
Probably it's because they are to tiny and the guns are low on power to Hunt.
I have some nsa .177 slugs that I tried out of my gamo dynamax. They don't fly straight with my gun..
@@CatCustom low on power to hunt, are you kidding Coen, my FACs say otherwise tramming over 1100 fps with 10.5s and delivering 30 ftlb, the penetration is phenomenal and with hollows its devastating. the slugs would only give me more range and that's the interesting bit.
@@IlIlllIllIlIIIll could work well out of a Lothar Walther though, might see if I can get my hands on some in the UK. cheers pal.
@hunter100t
Is that a original gun, or modified?
Maybe i typed it different than what i mean. Many hunt with .177 also in sub 12. But when talking about slugs, you go fac.
When go full power, sky is the limit in my country. So why chose a .177 when a bigger caliber has more power..
I’m just imagining all the greenies being triggered when the watch this video lol
People like this is why they're trying to do away with the 2nd amendment. If we want to keep our guns we shouldn't influence behavior like this
Richard Craig behavior like what? I will admit I wish he had a end place for the dead birds to go, such as food for animals. However, I don’t see much wrong with what he is doing.
Pigeons transmit diseases. If those greenies want to complain about Pigeons getting wacked they can lick a pigeon or its droppings.
I love hearing those 30gr slap and clap :) Great shooting and thanks for introducing your audience to things they might not have otherwise thought about looking for!
Matt, your videos and instruction are really useful. Any chance you can do a video on setting up the impact for slugs? You are a trusted source of information and help and it would be useful to see how you make the adjustments to enable the Impact to perform so well. Thanks
Please start selling the shirts!
I don't like them, I LOVE them🙌🙌
Hhfit I'll tb
Matt; the "heavy flywheel rim effect" of these very hollow hybrid slugs is easy enough to understand. If your viewers need any further help understanding how this affects long range stability, consider the 7.92 x 40 CETME. This was a long, aerodynamic light core bullet with a heavy copper partial outer jacket: czcams.com/video/3Njddshr3n8/video.html
Super interesting!!
@@AirArmsHuntingSA It explains why the hybrid slug does need to be spun super fast!
Great video Mat, yes, get those shirts in production!
Thanks for all your time and awesome videos. New to air guns your the best. Gary in Texas
Yes, nice shirt, I noticed it right away. Sell them, I’m sure they will sell
I'd be interested in some shirts. Long sleeve OD green or camo would be nice.
Awesome video packed with some real life useful info,Mr. Dubber!
You got me on the starling eggs!! LOL!
Love the shirt, hope it will come in XXXL size as well. Keep up the good work Matt. You guys rock. Never miss a video and can't wait for the next one. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👊🏻👌🏻😉😀
I'd love to buy a shirt
Not too expensive
I'd buy if R100 💪
Good price 20 years ago 👍
@@cameronwilliams3042 That would've been like R1000 today 😂😂😂
Well done Matt! Looking forward to trying the slugs for myself. I agree that there is a place for the hybrids slugs. I'm sure they will sell well here in the states especially as their price comes down somewhat. Hell yes on the shirts!!! Keep slugging.
You really know your stuff ! Great video as always.
Matt:Let me show you that you don't need a cannon to shoot slugs
Me: really? How fast you shooting those slugs Matt?
Matt: 980fps
Me: Really N#@@$
I'm lucky to push those to 900fps
@@CobosDoesItAll open up your transfer port and probe hole
It looks like a rat sniper. Did they sell that to FX and merge with NSA?
It's because it is a Rat Sniper slug. They've teamed up. NSA is not affiliated in any way, AFAIK. NSA ammo is proven and much cheaper than the hybrid slugs, but I still hope the hybrid slugs are successful, since competition advances the sport.
I love rat sniper slugs and they have them in other calibers. I have not been able to get any more for about a year and I talked to the guy once to see if I needed to order a few thousand at a time and I even offered to help make them so he could keep up. Well, I gave up! I've been getting my slugs off eBay.
I am just now starting to understand why these hybrids work well in one barrel and not so much with another. Very informative review. Thanks.
love the thump sound when the slugs hit
12:33 still wiggling
this guy gonna think why I'm getting more views and like and comments now ... thalapathy beast first look😍
Very informative and entertaining. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us all. Cheers from Arizona.😎🍻
The quality of these videos is just WOW. good stuff!!!!!
Never take life of anithing just for fun. Only hunt if you need to eat. God bless you all. 🗽💓💓🌹🌹you.
Karol Kupec Thats called pest control
Karol kupec you are absolutely right
Its called pest control. I don't think your god would condemn you for taking out pests if they were tearing apart your garden. You probably wonder why they smile and laugh when they get a kill too. I can easily answer that question. Ted said it best on his channel at Teds Holdover. "I smile and chuckle because I'm happy that I performed a quick clean kill and that the animal didn't feel any pain". So also keep that in mind.
Why are you even watching this channel?
It's unfortunate how to eat a small bird when it's been shot to the destroyed...😢😢😢
Great video Matt ! Looking forward to trying the .25 cal hybrid slugs. I would buy a shirt if it had the Impact on it !
Hey Matt, great video as always and nice to see the Hybrid is pellet rifle friendly. I would be up for a shirt as well in dark blue if you do a run of them.
keep up the good job love watching your videos all the best from over the pond england :)
Picked up a few sleeves of the hybrid slugs from Utah Airguns to try out. And +1 totally in for a tee!
very nice thing that fx company started making these slugs that will definitely start a compition between the companies like NSA HN and lower the prices
did the company make a.25 cal and when it will be availble in markets
finally keep up the great job 👍🏻
ragards from saudi arabia 🇸🇦
Good explanation on the slug, another awesome hunting video & the shirt, i would defenitely buy it...
Awesome shooting Matt!!! I am new to PCP air guns, I ordered an FX Dreamline Dream Pup .22 cal but it's in backorder! Can wait to get my hands on it and try the FX hybrid slugs! I enjoy all your videos and detailed reviews. Keep up the good work my friend. Cheers from USA 🇺🇲✌️.
Naturally the FX Hybrids shoot well out of my Impact. These also shoot really, really well out of my Benjamin Discovery. I didn't think that the Discovery had rifling, but the Hybrids don't tumble. They punch perfect wadcutter type holes in paper, but with the wimpy Discovery, they don't expand much. I mention it because these aren't just for Impacts. They do great in other guns too!
Well done and congratulations Matt!!!
Nice, the shirt and the video. Thanks Matt and I love the videos and talk about some nice shooting. I would indeed like to purchase the tee shirt. At least two or three of them. Yep no joke so lets put those babies up for sale. Keep the videos coming man!
Thanks Matt.
I haven’t seen anyone try them in aa Benjamin Marauder yet. I’d sure be interested to see that test.
Great video, pretty impressive what the hybrid slugs can do
Live the shirts man, please do make them available!
Hey Matt great video. I can’t wait to try the hybrids. I also like your t-shirt. do you have any XL?
I really like your videos so keep them coming!! I was wondering if the Hybrid Hollow point slugs would also work well with my Gamo Fushion Whisper 22 cal pellet gun? I found a pellet that shoot very well through it, (RWS) 14.5 gr. , Mostly use this gun for squirrels, non native pigeons etc..
Another informative video, excellent content. Absolutely would purchase the "I'd rather be Hunting" Tee shirts.
Awesome T Shirt Matt. Will be interested in purchasing.. Would also be great to see how the hybrid slugs perform in your Dream Tac Compact
Great Video can’t wait till I get those slugs especially in the 25 caliber and yes I like the shirt I’d like to order one
Thanks Matt for a super informative video. Wondering if there is a big difference between these hybrids and the AVS cup base slugs? Thanks
Those hybrids are awesome!👍 always enjoy your vids.
Pete
Hey Matt! Always love your videos! The technical specs are really well done! I AM INTERESTED IN THE SHIRT DEAL. Just bought a ken hicks impact in .25...might you be able to compare the energy and ballistic data of the hybrids at a later date?
geweldige video zoals altijd!!! keep up the good work greeting holland
Yup, like the vids and the T-shirt.
Very happy with that!!
Great video again guys! Do you think these would be any good in an impact sub 12ft pound? Thanks.
Maybe this is the beer talking, but I really want to edit the Wilhelm scream in when that dove gets shot at the start.
Pigeons fear this guys name for sure!
The Pigeon Slayer!
Matt, how would you still rate the predator polymags?
Would you maybe still use or test them in .22?
I really like those hybrid slugs, they seem to pack quite a punch. As usual Matt, your skills and that of your Air hunters partners, are really impressive. Having skills like you guys, I am sure, helps a lot, when hunting. And yes, you can put me down to a few of those shirts you wore. I like it a lot. If you are offering several color options, my preference would be black and red.
That's a awesome video and nice shirt, love.
What a beautiful landscape!
I love watching your channel. It inspires me.i am saving up to buy the guns you have.please make more videos thank you.
Awesome T-shirt Matt would be interested! 👍
Nice video as always Matt. If you don’t mind sharing. What liner are you using and what was the range for the groups ?
This Nuno from Mozambique, I like your videos and because it i decide to buy FX impact MkII with power planum... I do learn many things from you... Gr8 job!
i really enjoy your video's. I have been wanting to try slugs but the 500mm slug liner for my crown isnt available yet sounds like i try this in my crown. I always learn something new watching many of your video's.
Can't wait to buy a shirt , thanks Matt
Great video! I want some hybrid slugs and a T shirt!
matt great vid and would love get a shirt.also can wait to try the slugs on may next dove hunting trip. aloha
Most certainly be intrested in the shirts!
You gotta love that... whatever that is in the background
Love your videos man.
That’s for the review
I order four boxes of them yesterday
And yes I’ll buy a shirt or two
most definitely
Where can these pellets be purchased ?
Utah air has them
Pyramydair carries them also however there on back order till December 9 th but it is buy three and the fourth is free this week
😃
I’ve family in SA, I’ve got to get out for a few months for game hunting.
great video and info buddy. I hope is well my friend
What will you use now they are on about getting rid of lead pellets ? Thank you
Just an idea if you have time wile chillin polish up the backs and get a better reflection, better cam shots and on
Thanks. Your video is BEST bird hunting video!
Hey, just started watching your videos. Been trying to decide on a good .22 rim fire air gun and your vids are helping. I also think your t-shirts are super cool, if you are selling them I would love to buy one
Certainly a great cause Matt, Let us know as soon as you have a plan of action!
As for the shirt...Absobloodylutely I would purchase one, or Two....ok maybe Three!
Cheers, Mark
