Shot a couple groups yesterday with my HW97k, It was blowing pretty good down here in the sunshine state so I limited it to 25yards. top group was H&N FTTrophy's 8.64gr and the bottom group was AirArms10.3gr. Both were 5 shots. I know a lot of you can get them much tighter, but I am happy with minute of squirrel.

Nice!….If you ever get the itch to shoot some Fieldtarget…come join us at Desoto Airgunners in Arcadia. One of our members makes the monthly pilgrimage from West Palm Beach…we’d love to have you. John

I have an HW97 in .177 also. Mine has.a 12 fpe Vortek kit installed, and those groups are similar to mine under less than ideal conditions. It's a great yard rifle, and power is adequate for squirrels at 25 yards. They are great rifles.

Minute of squirrel groups look great. Have you tried different head sizes? Check out the 4.52's. They work the best in all of my Weihrauchs.

Shot more groups today at the same distance 25yards, just goes to show the gun is more accurate than me. I shot 2 with H&Ns 8.64 (top) and 2 at the bottom AA 10.3gr, what's interesting is the H&Ns are lighter but shot lower, also were a tighter fit. The group in the middle was the AA's. I did adjust the scope for the last group (center). AA's won today.
