AEA Slugs

Hunting & suitability

Primary purpose

Big-bore hunting / specialty target

Target use

Specialty target only; heavy recoil and cost make it poor for casual plinking

Hunting use

Strong candidate in a properly tuned big-bore PCP

Ethical game band

Large game / very large game, where legal

Suggested min muzzle energy

215 ft·lb

Suggested max range

Keep to proven accuracy and retained-energy range; often ≤75 yd for ethical field use

Game examples

deer, hog, large predators, exotic game where legal

Projectile alone does not establish ethical use; confirm local law, actual chronograph data, retained energy at impact, grouping in that barrel, penetration/expansion, and shot placement.
