Selling my barely shot Weihrauch HW 98 in .22 cal.

I bought this gun new from Krale a couple months ago and have put *maybe* 30 pellets through it. I’ve never owned a more accurate and pleasurable springer. It’s so accurate it almost takes the fun out of plinking… almost. I’m only selling it because my collection has gotten out of hand, and the newest guns need to go first.

**MAJOR DISCLAIMER—PLEASE READ: this gun was advertised on Krale as having the traditional HW 98 stock with the black stippling. It was a gorgeous design that clinched the deal for me over all the other amazing offerings from Weihrauch. However, when it arrived, it had instead the new stock, without the black paint. I was very disappointed, and in a fit of rage and inspiration I painted it myself to match the original design. Now I’m sure some of you are screaming: “You fool!!! What have you done?!?!” But in my defense, it came out looking really good (see pictures) and, after having spoken to a few people who have ordered the same gun recently from various retailers, they are ALL advertising the original stock and then sending the newer, less attractive stock. So it might be hard to find the black stippled versions otherwise. Either way, it goes without saying that the gun shoots just the same—which is to say excellently.

$500 plus shipping in CONUS. Zelle preferred. The only trade I’m interested in is a .22 or .25 Sumatra carbine.

Comes with original box and manual. ***Scope and mount not included.

Thanks.

It’s been a really long time since I’ve shot FT…but sat down in no coat wftf position and shot this N50 card at 27y. It’s not terrible for a 12fpe gun. Missed a few wind holds, but would probably still make a 244 or 245 on the wrabf 25m card. I did walk around like a 100 year old man for 10 minutes or so afterward.

anyone own one ?? How many hours can be expected from one? Is the coalescing filter on it enough by itself for producing dry air ?

Mr. @DeadEyeNC Hepler and wife are always a force to be reckoned with. Shown here at the Pyramyd AIR cup 2023 where Philip took 2nd place in the HFT division.


Philip uses a Daystate Redwolf and shoots for the Daystate Wolfpack.

Hey guys. I got this bad boy used maybe 2 years ago. It just sprung a leak "inside" somewhere.

What would someone do in this situation? Do I contact FX and send it to them? or do random FX dealers fix guns? It came from Talon Tunes originaly.

Where do I send it?

Thanks

The XTi-50’s have landed! And they look niiiiiice. Spotted at the Pyramyd AIR cup 2023. AGN member @coldfield on the right.

Dug out some targets, set some up in the garage, some family came over, and we did this to the targets

So I was watching Ted’s video on the Panthera Hunter. Being new to this hobbie/ sport, i am not really sure who he is, but seems to be a player when it comes to FX and what not. So during the video he talks about how FX told him the hunter is not a slug shooter. I was looking at the specs on the FX sight and noticed what they were advertising-

My point being, why are they advertising it as a slug potential shooter when according to Ted, they supposedly clearly told him it isn’t that type of gun. And to be dead honest, Ted found that the potential for slugs really only made sense at 900fps.
Hopefully FX is not over advertising their product. I wouldn’t want to have much to do with them if this is the case, but hey, what do I know or understand being new. Thoughts?

My new uragan 2 700mm in caliber .22 has arrived. It came with a thicker bottle and without the bottom protector. Has anyone seen this? Has anything else changed?

Shipping from Cincy OH

Although this concern could apply to any rifle that has the bottle directly into the receiver, for me it's about the FX Crown MkII
I am thoroughly not convinced that is ok (safe) to mount a bipod on a bottle clamp and have the bottle support the rifle.
Thoughts please.
Especially from folks with direct experience

Thanks

Not one to cherry pick a group but for this I had to. Installed the heavy Huma hammer and after a bit of tweaking found a happy place. First 10 shot group. 102 yards to target. Regs at 165 and 115. Wheel on 4 with the IHS 1/8 turn out. FX .25 34’s at 951 fps. Full string hopefully tomorrow with groups at multiple distances.

I got tired of forgetting batteries for my FX chronograph, so I made it Reachable. FX should have made it Rechargeable but I'm sure it would cost more . This FX Chronograph eats Duracells, I have to change the batteries after every use. I of course am forgetful and don't turn off the Chronograph, and use it for 2 hours straight. Some times I forget to carry extra batteries around and not to mention the cost of a 4 pack of AAA Duracells, So I made my Chronograph Rechargeable. I used a 18650 battery and added a charging port to the side. The run time is much longer now. About twice as long battery life and fast recharge. Also If I forget to charge it, I can just attach a Micro USB and it will work while its being charged. I can charge it from the car and I can't forget the Car.

Here are some pics of the end result. It was easy to make the changes, but it was time consuming. But now that I know how, it would only take 1 hour at the most.
SKILL LEVEL 3.
TIME 1 Hour
Tools needed.
Dremel and soldering skills.
Also need a Micro USB 4.2v battery Charger.
With the cover back on, you cant even tell anything was changed to the Chronograph. Other than the Micro USB port on the side for charging.


You have to know how to solder and have a Dremel.
If anyone wants to make your chronograph rechargeable Please let me know and I will make a short video on how to do it.

Thought I'd be clever and clean two barrel(guns) that were absolutely perfect, really didn't take much about 6 or 10 patches each, nice and clean. went out to test them....OH damn, the Maverick .25 was off a mile at 25 yards, ok maybe I rotated the barrel 180º, I put it on slug where I thought it was, elevation was off over a full turn MOA, got it back close and almost ok, still not as close as before I did something STUPID. Next up, the .22 Maverick Compact, off a little bit and went from laser to throwing rocks. I'm hoping that I can foul up the barrels enough to get them back , a few thousand pellets should do the job. After about 70 pellets/slugs each things started to get a tad better but not the Minute of Squirrel at 100 yards they were at. Note to self....IF IT AIN'T BROKE....DON'T FIX IT.

Am i haveing fun yet?

I swear this is not one of my typical "crap stirring" rules posts, I'm just trying to get a rules clarification.

So knee pads are not allowed in EFT? I was told second-hand this weekend that if they aren't in the rules they are not allowed. The reason I ask is because I like to use a thin volleyball style knee pad to keep my sweaty elbow from slipping off of my sweaty knee.

I assume since sweat bands are not in the rules, they are not legal either?

Hopefully my next EFT shoot will be long pants weather, so this will be more of a next summer question.

I've only been shooting EFT at one location in Texas, but if I were to travel I would like to know what the rules are elsewhere.

Selling my Prophet .22 LR. Great rifle and super accurate. Have it tuned to shoot JSB 25gr RD. No issues, a little wear on the lower pic rail where the Bipod attached but that's normal.

what would your ultimate tricked out setup currently be?

I'm a simple man, love my Rattler 357 build w/1-10 Vortex Razor. I don't stretch her out so I wouldn't go Zeis, March Genesis or anything crazy on top.

Wanna see what ya'll out there would love to run and gun with at the moment!

I am fortunate to own a number of great air rifles. Sometimes it is hard to decide which one to pull out when I have a few minutes to shoot.

Finished a hard days work of outside physical chores in the heat today and decided to pull out an airgun on the covered back porch to cool down. The only issue is there was a very strong quartering wind.

I dialed the Sightron SIII about two clicks into the wind, tethered the Panthera to the Great White tank, filled the magazine with ZAN 33.5 Gr .217 slugs and proceeded to hit every spinner/reactive target from 38 to 86 yards - dead centering each one with authority. It seems to totally disregard the wind issues compared to my “conventional” airguns shooting pellets.

Fun stuff and a good way to end the day.

Compact, light, quiet and a great shooter. See vid for details

pick it up I’ll include a Guided
One day Prairie Dog hunt. This gun has exterminated. PD at over 200 yards.

I decided to try my hand at 50 Yard benchrest competition and after researching bought a Red Wolf HP in 22. I have been having accuracy issues since the rifle was new. I‘m getting .75 to 1“ groups at 25 yards. I had tried shooting with and without the moderator, tried different scopes and mounts, different pellets, different resting methods (bags, bipods etc) with no success. Luckily I live only 30 mins from AOA so I brought the rifle to them to check out. The first tech tested it and wasn’t happy with the accuracy either. He inspected the barrel and decided that it was too rough so he polished the bore then claimed it was getting excellent groups at 20 yards.
A second tech looked at it and discovered that it was shooting the Monster Redesigns at over 1000fps on medium so way too hot. Also noted that when tank pressure drops to about 210 the velocity drops to around 940. Stated that it was a programming issue. After reprogramming it he then claimed getting 1 hole groups at 20 yards and .5 to .7“ groups at 50. He also noted that it much prefers JTS pellets over the JSB Monster pellets and that the gun doesn’t like to be filled to 250 bar So I should only fill it to 240 and run it down to about 160-170 bar for best accuracy.
I took the rifle home and went thru an entire tin of the JTS pellets they recommended and saw no accuracy improvement. At this point I’m thinking it must be me so I pulled out my Ghost 22, and my Red Wolf Safari 25 and Red Wolf Safari 30 to run a comparison. It was 83 degrees with no wind at all in my back yard. All guns were shot using the same bags.
Both Safari‘s and the ghost easily shot one hole groups at 25 yards as you would expect, however my Red Wolf 22hp did its usual poor performance. At this point I’ve been told it had a barrel issue, a programming issue and apparently has a sweet spot as far as air fill and the accuracy problem persists.
Any suggestions where I should go next as this rifle obviously doesn’t have the accuracy needed to compete?

Daystate Griffin .177 in excellent condition. I bought this because of it's rareity but I haven't used it much for Field Target. This has a Gary Cane designed stock and is a great option for Field Target with it's adjustable hamster, cheek rest and butt pad. This shoots 10.3 Heavies very good and is one of the quietest rifles I have ever shot...extremely backyard friendly. I am well known in the Field Target community and have sold many items through the years on here and other airgun forums so be confident when dealing. I am open to any questions or a phone call to discuss this transaction. Comes with 10 shot magazine and Rowan single shot magazine and will be shipped in a hardcase.
