This video demonstrates the long-range capabilities of the Edgun Leshiy .25 caliber air rifle using heavy H&N 44 grain slugs. The instructor achieves impressive accuracy at 150 and 300 yards, highlighting the effectiveness of heavier projectiles for extended range airgunning. The rifle delivers approximately 75 foot-pounds of energy at the muzzle with these slugs.

This quick tip from Brownells explains the basics of using torque wrenches for firearms applications. It differentiates between inch-pounds and foot-pounds, demonstrates how to set and use both small and large wrenches, and discusses the importance of maintaining a 90-degree angle for accuracy, particularly with components like AR-15 barrel nuts. The video also advises on proper torque wrench maintenance to ensure longevity and accuracy.

This video demonstrates the power of a 25 caliber AEA Varmint air rifle, testing its performance against an apple in slow motion. The demonstration uses H&N slugs and showcases the significant impact energy, measured at 78 foot-pounds. The slow-motion footage highlights the projectile's interaction with the apple, providing a visual representation of the airgun's capabilities for varmint control or power testing.
