PCP worthy Springers

HW 50 with high power Vortek kit! 10 shots under a penny at 25 yards

with field target target trophy pellets. Front sand bag rested.

Very nice. How do you feel about it’s cocking effort? I always hear how hard it’s to cock. Been wanting one for a while, but always mixed reviews on it.

Thanks for sharing.

Were you able to chronograph it with the kit installed? Could you detect much difference in firing smoothness and twang?

Had a nice late afternoon shooting session. No pcp's were invited. RWS 350 .22 w/open sights (!),Fantastic shooting .177 Walther Terrus and Yes...the HW50S .177 

What a GREAT time! 

btw,the HW50 is a breeze to cock! (Vortek kit,as well)

I will tell you what I think of mine,got it new and not broke in yet,first off like my R-9 better plus some others,butt they are all broke in and smoothed.

It is harder to cock and more "metal" feeling and sounding,it has good trigger and is accurate...and because of that I will also put a "kit" in it,butt I will detune it and make it smoother and nicer shooting..remember it does have good trigger and is accurate,mine is rough around the edges,kinda like me...LOL

I have a 50s in .177 also. Mine has been heavily modified from stock, with bore polishing, a full length barrel weight, a 3d printed butt hook, JM kit, JM Hornet seal, etc. When held just right, it is PCP accurate as well- pellet on pellet, but only up to 25 or 30 yards. Greater distances make that feat much more difficult, to the point that any PCP I own is more easily, repeatably accurate (even the lowly Benjamin Discovery). 

Just the nature of PCPs vs springers.
