    N/A .177 8-9 grain lead pellet of choice

    No I haven't, I did find a brand new unopened tin, so I'll have to give them a try next, I like the velocity the 8.44 gives me in the 124's but the HW97 would be a good candidate for the 9.57.

    N/A .177 8-9 grain lead pellet of choice

    I've tried all of the above pellets, all JSB Exacts, the QYS, the H&N FTT and wadcurtters and Baracudas, Crosman Premiers, both my FWB 124's and my HW97K all love one pellet the best, this pellet is the H&N Baracuda 8 in 4.51 with a weight of 8.44 gr. Outstanding accuracy at all ranges, 50 yards...

    HW/Weihrauch Breaking in a new HW97K

    I have a R9 .20 that I purchased from Steve at Pomona Airguns 20 years ago, it's a Goldfinger that steve installed a Macarri spring and tuned on day one. This is the only reason I didn't buy the 97 in .20 cal. The R9 shoots H&N FTT just over 800 fps and accurately

    HW/Weihrauch Breaking in a new HW97K

    After mounting the Hawke 3-9 scope with two piece Sportmatch rings I was within 3/4" of the bullseye elevation and the windage was within 1" so not much adjustment was needed, got lucky with this setup.

    HW/Weihrauch Breaking in a new HW97K

    Picked up a blemished HW97K from Pyramid Air just over a month ago, stock had one small mark underneath and that was it, it looked brand new. I mounted a Hawke scope with 2pc Sportmatch mounts and sighted in at 35 yards. Tried several different pellets, one day gun would like JSB's and then the...

    HW/Weihrauch New HW97K .177 Accuracy

    My HW97 has been pounding the strike zone with every shot, I love this gun, yea it's heavy but I'm 6'1" and 200 lbs and can handle the 97 just fine.

    FWB FWB 124 Sport

    I have two of these guns, both had pellets stuck in barrel and disintegrated piston seals, I installed a ARH full power kit in the one and a slightly softer kit in the other. I find myself shooting she softer kitted gun more because it's so easy to cock and so smooth and accurate. Both guns are...

    HW/Weihrauch New HW97K .177 Accuracy

    It is indeed fun, a tin of pellets and the gun is all that's needed, no hoses, tanks, compressors. I'm guessing gun will get even better and smooth out even more as I shoot. As the late Robert Beeman once said, these guns doen't wear out the more you shoot them they wear in. No, I'm not going to...

    HW/Weihrauch New HW97K .177 Accuracy

    Ok, I found some 8.64g FTT ammo @ 885 FPS and didn't need to go past those, the 7.87 JSB also accurate at a blistering 925 FPS The FTT have PCP accuracy though. Dam ! This is a 15 foot pound gun in .177, I'm impressed

    HW/Weihrauch New HW97K .177 Accuracy

    I always wanted to try a HW97 in .177, after owning a TX200 in .22 the larger caliber springer isn't fast enough for my taste, I leave .22 and above for PCP's, that's just my personal experience. If you do buy a larger power springer with any kind of decent velocity it's too harsh to shoot and...

    HW/Weihrauch Decision Time - .20 HW77K vs .22 HW77

    I am a PCP guy but cut my teeth on springers long ago and still enjoy shooting them, I go through cycles, right now I am on a springer high, just picked up a new HW97K in .177, shoots 7.9 g CP's just over 900 fps and also likes RWS Superdomes just under 900 FPS, this gun is spectacular ! I had a...

    Tuning Wildcat mk3 compact .25 Slow leaking

    Remove action from stock, spray areas of possible leaks with Windex, this stuff really exposes even the smallest leaks. Around gauges, where airtube screws into action, any seams in air tube, and the fill area, you'll find it, I have several FX guns and it's usually the gauge or regulator. We...

    Tuning any tuning tips for the FX Crown MKII with .25 25.39 grain JSB Exact?

    Tuning FX Impact Regulator Rebuild Time

    I noticed that my M2 Impact was slowly losing air over time, I sprayed down with Windex and noticed air was slowly coming out of regulaor weep hole on RH side of gun, I removed bottle, removed trigger guard, air vented out of rest of gun when I removed bottle so I knew it was regulator rebuild...

    FX Crown in .177

    I have several FX Crowns in various calibers and configurations, I thought I would give the .177 cal a try and I am using a STX 500mm liner with extended shroud, set up to shoot 10.5gr Crosman Premier heavies just a little over 900 FPS for best accuracy and power and am amazed how accurate his...

    Fx M3 pressure gauge brass washer info

    Just use a Dowdy seal, works better and seals better than the FX brass washer and O RING.
