    HW/Weihrauch R1/springer Ringing noise?

    Anyone get this sound from their springer. My R1 is the only gun I hear it from. It makes the noise without the scope too.

    Tuning Power or manners?

    I have a R1 that I have a love, hate relationship. Mostly hate. I've tuned it in 20 cal and 22 and struggled to get 20 fpe clean. That means without dieseling. After trying a JM kit and a Vortek kit I finally got 19 fpe in 20 caliber and 20 fpe in 22 without dieseling. The gun was harsh, hard to...

    Traditional Rifle LF HW80/R1 parts and possibly guns.

    I'm a amateur tuner and I'm LF HW80/R1 parts and possibly guns to play with. Any year or caliber. I'm mostly interested in compression tubes but will consider other parts or full guns based on price and condition. Thanks Ron

    HW/Weihrauch 177 shoot out later today.

    Dodging the rain and shooting in between gust I kept rotating through my rifles. I started with my squirrel gun for the first two lines. It's my Hw50 with a 4x Hawke centerfire scope. The second two rows are my first Weihrauch. A 177 Hw95. The last row is my green 177 Hw97. All these are five...

    HW/Weihrauch 20 cal Rematch

    Today I tried to beat the rain and see if I could do better than last time. Here's a page of targets from my two HW 20s. Definitely better than last time around. Horizontal lines one and two is my Hw98. Line one is FTTs Line two is JSB 13.73 Lines three and four is my blue R9. Line three is...

    HW/Weihrauch Great cheap find for old eyes.

    As I've gotten older I've had problems focusing on the front sight. I found this fiber optic front sight on Amazon for ten bucks. I think it's amazing. The fiber optic point is bright and fine. My accuracy is better with it and I can pick out targets in dark backgrounds infinitely easier...

    HW/Weihrauch Another sheet of groups from my first Weihrauch

    Today I had things to fix and put together today. I did get to shoot some 25 yard five shot groups with my first Weihrauch. A 177 Hw95. Some good, some not so good. Red dots are 3/4". Mild side breeze today. First row JSB 8.44 4.52 Second row JSB 8.44 4.53 Third and fourth row FTT 4.51 Fifth...

    HW/Weihrauch I'll take this too! PB?

    Here's a bunch of 25 yard five shot targets from my Hw30 laminate. First two rows were 4.51 FTTs. Started rough because the gun was last shooting JSBs. It cleaned up pretty good. The third row is 4.52 FTTs. The last group might be a personal best for any airgun. It's easily under MOA. Not bad...

    HW/Weihrauch I'll take this.

    Yesterday I was having fun plinking offhand with this Hw30 at spinners and cans at 50 and 70 yards the other day. Today I needed to rezero the gun at a more practical 25 yards. Top left was zeroing shots the rest are five shot groups from a table. Pretty happy with these groups with old eyes and...

    HW/Weihrauch Update on left cocked Hw30

    This is the gun that I left cocked for an unknown time. IIRC it was shooting 7.33s at around 710 fps a few weeks ago. After I found it cocked the power was down 30 or 40 fps. Yesterday I chronographed the gun at 666 Avg before setting off to replace spring. I took the gun apart and put a fresh...

    HW/Weihrauch I left the HW30 cocked again🤬

    Between crumby weather, holiday activities and my kids coming to visit I haven't shot my HW30s in a while. Today I took my peep sighted 30 out and found it loaded and cocked. For how long? I'm not sure. I'd guess at least two weeks. Fired off the loaded shot and a few more. It felt fine. I set...

    N/A What'd cool traditional airgun related thing did Santa bring you?

    For all you good boys and girls. What'd cool traditional airgun related thing did Santa bring you?

    HW/Weihrauch New springer challenge.

    OK I've had no problem hitting beer cans at 100 yards with my scoped Hw30. I have with my other scoped Weihrauchs, but the 30 makes me feel best about it. I've recently moved to where there's more room and tolerance towards guns. My neighbor has been kind enough to let me shoot on to his...

    Tuning Anyone use this JM kit in their HW50?

    Hey gang, I recently replaced the spring in a 5 year old PG2 kit and it must not be a great fit because there's some annoying buzz that wasn't there before. I'd like to try this JM kit in my 2018 Hw50 so I was wondering if anyone has tried it and what kind of power you're getting out of it...

    HW/Weihrauch Trying something different.

    My favorite rifle got an impromptu sighting system. I ordered this red dot for my AR. I decided to give it go on my favorite air rifle. What's novel is I can still use my peeps through the riser mount. That's good because the peeps get hard to use in dim lighting and dark backgrounds. The other...

    HW/Weihrauch Weihrauch accuracy?

    With intermittent light winds shot these targets with a few of my Weihrauchs. The order was left to right starting top row. Incidentally the first group for each gun was shot cold off the rack. All five shots scoped at 25 yards. AND NO! NOT OFFHAND for all the heros out there. Starting from top...

    HW/Weihrauch Another 20 cal Shoot out.

    Today I broke out my 20s again. The top row is my HW98 second row is my blue R9. The R9 started off much tighter then opened up. Neither is terrible but I think the R9 won. I might have been getting fatigued at the end. I'd been shooting my 177 stuff for four hours straight right before the...

    HW/Weihrauch Blowing off steam with the Weihrauchs today.

    The rain finally stopped late today. After getting a crooked roof from a crooked contactor, finding out the beautiful property my new house views is up for sale and I was mislead on my property boundaries I had a little steam to blow off today. I have rain proof spinners at 25, 50 and a beer...

    HW/Weihrauch More Hw30 fun.

    Today contractors didn't show up so I shot my R1 and Hw30s at 25 yards. The R1 was challenging so I went to the 30s. First the scoped HW30 then the one with peeps. I had an inauspicious start with that one so I tried wadcutters which went worse. I switched back to RSs and things started to...

    HW/Weihrauch Hw30 fun.

    I had a rough week. Lots of problems with bad contractors, neighbor boarder disputes and needed a new $eptic $y$tem put in. When that was done I busted out one of my 30s. Twenty five yards with RS exacts was going well, so I moved to Meisterkugeln and Krale wadcutters to see if I could do...
