Is it EVEN Worth It to SHOOT SLUGS in "BUDGET" Airguns???

It seems like EVERYONE wants to shoot slugs. Even if the gun they have isn't specifically built for shooting them. In this video we will find out if its worth it to use slugs instead of pellets if you're running a "budget" gun that's not built for shooting slugs. For this test I'll be using the Umarex Gauntlet 2 in .25 caliber but I think this is a good representation of how most airguns in the "budget" category would perform.
Most people will say that slugs need to be going fast to work and that you need a slug barrel to get good accuracy. Is that the case? Let's use some ballistic gel set out at 50 yards to get a good comparison of the effectiveness of each ammo option. In this video I used H&N Slugs and Pellets but I think the results would be similar with other brands of ammo.
