    HW/Weihrauch Weak guy springers

    I am 85 & have no problem cocking my 17 FPE HW95 which is equipped with a moderator. The cocking sound is absolutely silent until the piston latches in the trigger. I highly recommend the HW95L.

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

    FWIW, I have never shot a .20 but at 85 trips around the Sun the .22 seems to me that it easier to load than the .177.

    What springer did you shoot today?

    HW95L .22 & about 50 shots at 25 yards, all seemed to be 1.5" to 2" groups from a table w/bags. Had to let the tree rats walk because of neighbors/wife.

    Airgun owners vs firearm owners

    PB rifles, shotguns, BP rifles, PB pistols & air rifles. I use & enjoy all of them. My favorite/priceless is a WIN M70 30-06 given to me by my sons.

    Garmin Chronograph

    I use the https://www.caldwellshooting.com/range-gear/chronographs-and-wind-meters/ballistic-precision-chronograph/720001.html#start=1 chrono and just jot down the shot FPS #s as I don't even use the iPhone app anymore. I use an excel APP with my WIN 11 PC which gives all of the data I need...

    N/A Springer Accuracy?

    I can sometimes shoot MOA at 25 yards BUT not always. This may help with MOA calc. One MOA Calculation (Note, MOA = minute of angle). This is how you can determine the one MOA for any target. Determine the distance or range to this target. Convert this number to inches or centimeters for...

    HW/Weihrauch Brake barrell

    What the others have said & I only have experience with the HW95L .22 which IMHO is an excellent air rifle. I put in an ARH kit + Vortek seal with GPL-205 Krytox lube. My rifle averages about 17 FPE after almost 10K shots. My wife also enjoys shooting "OUR" rifle from the back deck...

    New Old Guy Here

    H&N FTT Pellets

    Amazon has a fairly decent price on these .22 pellets. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=H%26N+FTT+.22+pellets&crid=2SNEVRWAFZCSB&sprefix=h%26n+ftt+.22+pellets%2Caps%2C78&ref=nb_sb_noss

    N/A HW95 Tune From Dealer

    My suggestion is to get an ARH kit with a Vortek seal and install them yourself in your NEW 95 from AoA. That is what I did & I am North of 80, easy peasy. My 95 was built during the Wuhan China Virus time when inexperienced folks at Weihrauch over oiled/greased the rifle during manufacture...

    Other What would you buy as a intro setup to using a break barrel?

    My suggestion is a HW95L .22 which it looks like you have already selected. I have found this rifle to be very accurate and at 84 sometimes I can shoot MOA with mine at 25 yards BUT not always. I use the H&N FTT 14.66 gr 5.53 mm pellets which seem to give the best groups. Here is 5 at 25 from...

    If you could only have 1 springer air rifle, what would you choose?

    I started with a Benjamin Trail NP .22 which I gave to my son and now have the HW95L .22 with a Hawke 4-16 x 44 MM scope. Both my wife & I enjoy plinking with this rifle from our back deck. We are both North of 80 and this rifle is much more accurate then we are able to shoot although...
