Slugs Javelin Gen 2 5.5 mm 26 grain (.218)

Javelin Gen 2 5.5 mm 26 grain (.218) slugs have been developed to combine the highest possible ballistic coefficient with the greatest possible impact. To this end, field and range experience has been combined with ballistic testing using a Doppler radar, which has resulted in these quality slugs.

The Javelin Gen 2 5.5 mm 26 grain (.218) slugs are swaged, which gives them extremely consistent cohesion and density, as well as great uniformity and a very smooth finish. The tangent ogive (the so-called bullet shape) and neatly finished meplat (front end) contribute to a ballistic coefficient of 0.081. Perfect for long-range use and significantly less sensitive to external factors, making them extremely accurate.

The soft lead and hollow point ensure that the Javelin Gen 2 5.5 mm 26 grain (.218) slugs deform extremely quickly upon impact, which guarantees an explosive impact.

Improvements for the second generation Javelin slugs:

• Hollow point is carefully shaped for controlled expansion
• Hollow point depth is exceptionally calculated for each individual weight for better weight distribution
• Meplat is rounder, which provides better aerodynamics
• Base has been redesigned for better stability in turbulent conditions
• Tighter machine tolerances ensure consistent manufacturing
