Watched this on my home pc, loved his business model...and bought a bunch of big bore stuff right after the video. Entire family businesses are awesome !!!

This was awesome! Great information, the tour was great! Thanks!

Like the dimple tipped 34gr and 36gr , what a great tour of NSA impressive .

I loved this little behind the scenes video. I would have had no idea that NSA was a small family business. And I can tell from how this man explains his business, how he was an air gunner before ammo manufacturer first so he gets it, and how he spends seven days a week at his business all of this is appreciated. When I saw his son packing the ammo as carefully as he did and how their ammo consistently has the most uniform shape and weight. Well I’m sold for life. I’m just about to order my .308 AirForce Texan LSS and I think NSA is going to get all of my business before I’ve even fired a bullet. Buy American and support small family business that care about their product and customer service. You won’t get this amount of care and concern for the quality of ammunition for your airgun anywhere else it seems to me. Nice video! Very informative. 👍

I wonder why they do not use a 3D printer from the likes of Desktop Metal to do the complete process?

My Airforce Texan 457SS loves the 240grain and the 350grain👍🏼🤘🏼 Awesome Video

AWESOME! I am ALL about slugs! Thanks so much for going to see your friends factory!

Interesting process!! Good for you guys!!

Very informative, and thank you Nielsen family for playing a huge role in advancing our industry! MarkLondon

WE LOVE YOUR SLUGS. Grate video thanks for the tour of your factory . Roy

knocked this video out of the park

Thanks for the tour! I love NSA ammo so far. Hope to try more out soon!

Hidden gem of info in this video. 👍🏻

Good video👍 ...... Very sad that Nielsen does not have a factory in Europe, here these slugs come out very expensive.😞

Excellent introduction to the world of slugs. Now I have to see them in one of my 23s.

Great video, and quality, price and quick service can’t be beaten, thanks Nick & your crew.

Thanks for opening your shop. Great insight.

Thank you Nick and Dana👍 Been waiting for a tour of the NSA factory for a while:) Great video and lots of good info.. Theres no slugs made anywhere with such consistency in both size, weight and best off all "accuracy" in such a wide range of airguns. So happy to be an airgunner in these times!

Loved the video Dana! Thanks for sharing this.

Wow, everything you wanted to know about slugs but were afraid to ask! Very informative. Thanks so much for sharing this!

Yep but didn't say how to keep em out of the cabbages, oh well best stop shooting cabbages.

Great Video Dana , lots of good information thanks for sharing . Good looking facility Nick .

Fantastic video brother. Slugs are the future of extreme long range air gun shooting. God bless you.

I was just watching a video and thinking about ordering some more. Too cool.

Great video, thanks. Nick is a great man to do business with. A+

looks Great guys ! happy to see how much the biz is growing. I'll stop by to see you next time I'm in town.

Man, do I love You Tube! It tracked my searches for slugs and brought this video to me. I'd just ordered slugs from Nielsen today, and here I am looking at your video. Life is good. :)

I just found this video. Thanks much for making it and posting it. And a big thanks to NSA for allowing you to film it. I started to develop a swaging method for making 22lr ammo in 2015. There is much overlap between airgun ammo making and regular ammo making.

Thank you again for such a informative video.

Thank you for your Quality 22-Cal Airgun Ammo.

Enjoyed watching this Dana. Keep up the good work. NSA is top notch, and it's neat to see how it's done. Thank you both for taking the time to get it out there.

Great vid. Keep those air gun slugs coming guys. 👍🏼

Very informative video, my Texan loves the NSA ammo and the packaging is great. Took 2 deer with the 350gr slugs this year. Keep doing what your doing!

Great video. That's really some operation Nick has there.

Awsome , very good slugs , my 25cal raptor loves 36gr and 34gr .

Excellent video. As a former machinist i can really appreciate what yall got going on here. I hope this Virus mess is not being too hard on your operation. Im a new customer from one of your sample packs that will be ordering in bulk from now on. Im thinking my pellet days are pretty much over. My SamYang Sumatra which slugged out at .2505" likes your .250" 30+g product. Really looking forward to trying the 52g/55g BT/HP on my next order. True Americana right here. Thanks for all yall's hard work and how it all comes together.

Wow, really cool and informative. Thank you for asking those super pertinent questions that I am sure a lot of people have. I love a good story about a family business as well, few and far between these days. Their product has wowed me in my .357 Pitbull (unleashed version) for sure.

Love this.. great see the shop and all you capabilities

And to think, I thought NSA may fall by the wayside should/when H&N JSB and the like got their "slug" act together. Having seen your Video Dana, and seen the investment Nick has made and is making in automation, I now feel If he can keep Labour costs down (his and his family wage), then NSA should be a great success long into the future. I am already looking forward to what the CNC is gonna turn out. He deserves this for trailblazing slugs for Air Guns, thanks Nick. Thanks Dana.

Wow, very useful! New to shooting slugs myself (just got myself an FX Maverick literally 14 days ago) but there's great insight shared here. Will put NSA slugs on my shopping list!

AWESOME. !!

NSA makes the best bang for your buck imo, i use the 17.5s in .22 and 29.5s in .25. Both perform very well, Tip for extra expansion: on a 29.5 i take a box cutter razor make 5 equal cuts on the rim of the nose then score it down the ojive a little, at 880 fps and at 25 yards they expand on a soft target (large tomato) and big towel backstop i got .457 diameter expansion with the 5 pedals curled back, i love these slugs! Thanks NSA! And Mountainsport airguns for the tour!

Wow! A wealth of information. Thank you and great video.

NSA are the BEST for my blitz. Perfection You can definitely see the quality difference between these and other brands

Love seeing family owned American busines I will be ordering some slugs.

Very good video!👌👊

Just got some today!

Thank you for all the information but you provided on this video I thought it was awesome

Nice!👍

Good stuff

I love it. American entrepreneurs. I just got a box of 22 cal 17.5gr. They are little pieces of art.lol they fulfilled my order very quick. Super impressed. Just have to see if my benji xl "springer" will shoot them.

Awesome!!

OMG. I though NSA was the big factory like H&N, JSB. However, your ammo is the best accurate ammo in Indonesia comparing with the ones from the big fac. I hope your slug will be cheaper than now so there will be more hunters use the ammo. Very impressive video. Thank's every one

Enjoyed the vid

Cool video! you should feature this on your site!

Verry informative video,always been wondering how slugs are swaged...just a tip from a guy missing the top digit of his right index finger(me) at 6:03 you can see how that could happen to the person(any) handling the swage...as you mentioned,it stops at the top...no matter if there's a finger inbetween or not(ik know :-/)...making the operation two-handed would make sure this cant happen and YES, i know that will slow down the proces...but even more so will do an accident and on top of that,fingers dont grow back(i've been wayting for that to happen for 27 years now)...

I know this video is almost 3 years old now, but still very interesting. I had know idea the equipment that is involved in making these fine products. Just got into shooting slugs in my FX M3 and have had good luck with NSA so far. That CNC machine is totally Bad Ass!

Thanks for the info, I will email him.

My fx wildcat mk2 .40 absolutely loves the 49 grain slugs. It's unbelievable how accurate i can shoot then. But in my dad's they suck. Like he said rifling is very important along with fps. Just 10 fps can change a group that's why alot of guys stay with pellets. But when you begin to learn your gun and desire more knock down power you'll grab a slug because you know how to tune your AG to get the highest accuracy. But nielson slugs are so well made a beginner has a great chance of just buying a slug that around the same weight as there pellet and have excellent groups. Air gunning is a hobby you have to love and respect and your AG will give you the same back.

So I'm sure you get this question all the time, but inquiring minds want to know. When are you going to expand into making "Diabolo" style pellets? There's certainly a market for a cold pressed/milled pellet given the type of consistency you've achieved with your slugs? So, any plans for this in your future, a lot of BR shooters would certainly love to know. Thanks Joe P. tABC - FB Forum (the Airgun Benchrest Channel)

Air guns are actually turning more and more away from pellets and more towards slugs. FX has really been pushing it hard for a short time now so pellets will be at some point a thing of the past

@@snipercam11 Slugs will not be in competition (except I foresee there being a slug division in the big american bench shooting ones). And there are a lot of times when you simply wouldnt want to use slugs. Pest control in close environments, target shooting, and shooting small game that you want to eat (birds mostly). Also, with European 12ft/lb requirements, slugs will never be viable there. Not to mention not all guns shoot slugs accurately.

IS there a slug you wood recommend for the 22 Armada and the 25 Armada. Roy I have the 250 34.7 gr and the 217 21 gran now both work just wondering if theirs a beater fit out there . Roy

The price in the Netherlands is not what im willing to spend on it. JSB slugs & H&N are the best bang for me.

That whole system is really easy😀 I'm definitely about to start my own airgun slug manufacturing company with my kid's, but the only difference from this company is my packaging is going to have an individual slot for each round so they aren't rubbing together in those boxes because those slugs can and will definitely get damaged during shipping or stacking👍

Man I'd love to pick his brain on his thoughts on the optimum slug weight and fps for my fx wildcat mk2 .30 Stx type A slug liner.

just ordered 18gr for my .177 Benjamin Marauder. I thought slugs for .177 were non existent until i stumbled upon Neilson ammo in a google search. Cant weight to try them out

Fantastic! I’ve sure enjoyed the .25s. Do you happen to have a suggestion for lube? I’m unable to fully seat the 55gr .25 slugs in my Condor.

My gauntlet went from 24ftlbs to 29 ftlbs immediately after switching to the slugs!

G’day guys, when are you guys planning on shipping to Australia on a permanent basis, they would sell like hot cakes down under....regards Anthony 👍

I was wondering, why do they say their slugs are not suitable for original FX Smooth Twist barrells?

I don’t understand why, if you’re starting out with precision sized lead wire, you melt and it and make new blanks of some other size for your press.

Do you ship your slugs to the UK?

Probably, since they ship it to Spain.

I have heard that I can shoot your .217 slugs out of my Brocock Bantam HR Magnum in .22cal. Have you heard or found this to be true?

FX has copied the RatSniper design for THEIR slug Do You have an equivalent soft skirt hollow point in 25 or 30 cal

Please be careful with that razor knife when you cut open the spools...gave me major anxiety for your fingers safety lol
