Description
ZAN Projectiles .22 33 grain HP slugs are swaged from ZAN’s own soft-lead formula in Slovenia for pre-charged pneumatic air rifles that shoot slugs rather than diabolo pellets. Each slug weighs 33 grains (2.14 g) at a nominal .217″ diameter and comes 200 to a pack. The hollow-point nose is designed for rapid but controlled expansion on pest and small game while the solid shank and cup base keep the slug stable at the 850-1,000 fps ZAN recommends. ZAN is imported to Australia by SJS Trading and stocked by 3 Gun Tactical in Tingalpa for FX, Daystate and other slug-capable PCPs.
Fitment / notes: A popular all-round .22 slug weight for FX Impact, Crown, Panthera and Daystate PCPs on rabbits, hares and foxes.

Frequently asked questions
Will these work in my air rifle?
Slugs need a barrel designed or proven for them (slug liners, fast twist) and enough power to drive them at 850–1,000 fps; most springers and low-power PCPs are better served by diabolo pellets.
Do I need a licence?
Air rifles are Category A firearms in Queensland and airgun slugs are sold only to licence holders; collect in store at Tingalpa with a valid firearms licence.
What is the difference between ..217 and other diameters?
ZAN swages several diameters per calibre so you can match bore size; .217″ is the standard for most 5.5 mm slug barrels. Try a sample box if you are unsure.
