    Hatsan Been awhile...couldn't resist....

    HW30 pellet deformation

    I picked up some 177 9.2 grain crow magnums and shot into one gallon thick clear water filled plastic bottles. I am getting 550 FPS whereas I am getting 660 with JSB 7.33 exact rating. The crows would not penetrate at 31 yards but would at 15. The 7.33 would penetrate all the way at 31 yards...

    San Diego Vermin Hunters

    I normally hunt with my 45-70 looking for the elusive San Diego hog......this would be a switch with my HW-30. Do we have any issues post 7/1/19 with lead and pellet guns?
