The hw97k setup at 12fpe or less is an excellent overall package. Mine shoots at about 11.5fpe in .177.

Ballkeeper,

So to be clear, you bought a sub 12fpe U.K. spec HW97 and it had twang?

Very nice! I’m really liking mine more and more each day. Have only had it a few weeks now. Is that 4.51 grain pellets? Lowest I see here is around 7 grain.

hi 4,51 is the size so it be jsb 451 8.44 on the tin sometimes seen on the back of your tin

 

[intenseaty22]

Gotcha! Yes, the 8.44s shoot excellent out of mine. The Polymags have the same POI. But I have mine zeroed in with the 10.34s. Single hole at 25 yards.
