My HW98 .25 was doing cloverleaf groups at 35 meters with JSB King 25gr in stock configuration 15-16fpe. I ordered it from Krale Scheittsport in the Netherlands, arrived 3 days later in the middle of Nowhere, LA USA. Meanwhile orders from some of our domestic retail sites take weeks and months...

I drilled the buttstock and screwed in a sling swivel mount on some of my HW’s and put Uncle Mikes split band sling swivel on the front, it even fits the underlever charging lever. I got a caliper to measure the diameter and ordered the right size. I’d put a picture and measurements, but I ain’t...

I have a HW98 in .25 cal. So much backyard fun with JSB 25gr. Haters gonna hate the .25 springer, but I practically couldn’t miss in my 40yd field of fire.

P-Rod in the house. That was my first PCP. I put a HumaReg, drilled out the TP diameter, and threw DonnyFL on the muzzle. So many stealth dirt naps were dispensed to obnoxious neighborhood pests. I still have her and the fond memories of 16gr PolyMag Pops.

I have a Vortek HO in my HW98 that ended up shooting 11.8 FPE. I eMailed vortek years ago but never got a response. I can’t put the original innards back in because I bent the liner because it seemed like the only way the liner would get it out is to mangle it out.

Dang. Kinda makes me want one of those big ugly honkin guns.

@caseyk I opted for a cheap, local result that was circulating the internet back in 2014-2015. It was either plastic refrigerator water filter line, or aquarium air line that matched the outer diameter of the transfer port insert. A very common part that could be found probably at even the most...

@rafr I originally had the standard with a Sumo, it tightened up the groups compared to a bare muzzle. After my threads started getting loose, I eMailed Donny about my woes and he pointed me to the extended that probably wasn’t previously available when I ordered the standard. I excitedly...

P-Rod was my first PCP, love the accuracy after opening the transfer port and dropping in a HumaReg. I also had the DonnyFL adaptor but I had to take off the LDC every time I filled the air and the aluminum threads were getting loose from repeated off & on. I ended up ordering a Neil Clague that...

My HW98 .25 out of the box (~15FPE) would cloverleaf jsb kings at 40 yards. I hated the twang and threw in a Vortek PG3, now it’s collecting dust because the groups look like an extra large peperoni pizza. I bent and deformed the factory piston sleeve when I yanked it out with a needle nose to...

I used a straight pointy pick from an automotive tool set to pry the sleeve edge off the surface. Then I pulled the sleeve out with needle nose pliers. It required a lot of force and the sleeve is deformed, I would have to do some work if I decide to re-use it. I have a brand name pick set that...

I probably didn’t get a ping until I increased the power. They say the ping is caused by rapid air pressure change and it gets amplified as the vibration bounces around the air tube. I’ve seen scope cam video of guns with very prominent ping, they’re higher power than the P-Rod factory power...

I put a Huma Reg and opened the transfer port. It’s been so long ago, I don’t remember how many bar or the diameter of the new transfer port. I also used a makeshift depinger by shoving a bottle brush head in the air tube. Big ole DonnyFL Sumo made her whisper sweet naps to the noisy barking...

It was still eating after catching some lead. I suppose I might do the same, might as well enjoy the last moments.

There’s an Idaho Airguns and Outdoors YouTube who filmed with this Leaf and it seems like the sound was acceptable. https://youtu.be/g0rjfUwt2R8
