Real-world commentary
Ecoslug is the trademark of P-Bar Co. LLC, a US maker of non-lead big-bore projectiles for airguns and muzzleloaders. The Texan .50 slug is machined from 145 copper and uses O-rings to engage the rifling, while a companion .50 pellet pairs an aluminum shell with a steel core. The company notes high metal costs led it to discontinue two products in April 2026 while developing cheaper replacements.
