John Doe Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Contacted Ddupleks for information regarding their slugs and shooting them from a full choke, this is their response email. Thank you for the interest in our products and the good words! Yes, you can use them in full choke. The diameter of the steel part is calculated to be safe for any choke - only the polyethylene encasing is touching the barrel. Best regards, Andris Stipnieks D Dupleks So, if I understand correctly the slim piece of plastic that is around the rim of the projectile is what grabs the barrel and will be able to squeeze through the barrel and the choke. Well, I have an email from them stating that it is fine even in a full choke. I will test this and report back to you guys and let you know if it works. If it does, I think the Hexolits are going to be my main go-to slug from now on. As some of you know about this slug it is super powerful and destroys everything, I also like the mechanics behind them with the petals breaking apart from the main head and just slicing up everything. I hear they work wonders on the skinwalkers and dogmen. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doesire Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Thanks for sharing this information! It's always great to get a response directly from the source. The confirmation that the slim plastic piece around the projectile won't interfere with using the slugs in a full choke is reassuring. Your plan to test it out and report back is awesome – looking forward to hearing about your experience. a small world cup 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Doe Posted yesterday at 03:31 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 03:31 AM So it has only been about 4 months, but I have finally got around to testing out the shells. My wife, son, and myself, went out today to shoot, since we are now finally getting nice weather and school is out. I took out about 200 rounds of various shells as well as 10 rounds of the Hexolit 32, I saved those for last. After firing off about 120 rounds for just the Benelli and about a hundred of 9mm and 10mm we decided it was time to pack up, but before we left I threw those hexolit 32s in my full choked Benelli M4 and sent them. Not a single problem. They ran great with no issues to the barrel or choke and they fed nicely with no hiccups, and were as accurate as they always are. I was hitting a 55-gallon metal drum at about 35 yards with no issues and every round hit right where I was aiming. Suffice to say, the Hexolit will be my new go-to slug. I would for sure recommend them after shooting them through a full choke with zero issues. By the way, the recoil is very soft considering what they are. Hope this info helps. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
