Best value springer air rifle 2020

@@fieldtester7655 That’s smashing Charlie and and I’m privileged but I’m Jonathan🤣

Yes the HW50 is one of the best

You're paying the same prices for sub-12 ft/lb and FAC on the continent where you need no licence. Air rifles not worth it in the UK. Demeaning waste of money and time, £350 for a sub12ft/lb hunting springer in the UK and FAC available for 250 EURO abroad with no license requirements. It takes no special skill to aim your low powered rifle upward and downward to achieve great accuracy at longer ranges just because your limited in power. Why people make mention of a UK 12ft?lb limit as some set standard is beyond me. UK is not the best place to pursue a weapons hobby anyway, when there are far easier options available.

Thanks (& I'll be using DSA 🙂). / Charlie

Agree, I am so impressed by my new HW57

Yea they changed the stock shape last year. Personally the mk2 ( if it is such a thing ) looked the best. The new one has been slimmed down at the front and had extra shapes added. Kind of like an old bmw m3 to a new one lol they just p*** around with a good thing

I don't think the HW99 is available in the US. I know the Beeman R9 is essentially the HW95, the R8 the HW50 and the R7 the HW30. You could always have a vacation in Europe and take one back as a souvenir. I'm a HW95 fan, too - have a .177 and a .22. Great rifle and easy to strip, fettle and tune. Not too much more expensive than the 99 and a better fit if you're tall with long arms as I am.

@@laurieharper1526 the HW99 is the HW50 to the rest of the world for some reason.

@@ianwhite5799 Interesting. They must have re-used the model number. I was at my club today and one of the members had an older HW50 that he had just bought. It looked like a slimmed down HW35 without the barrel lock.

@@laurieharper1526 i know Weihrauch did a HW55 with a barrel lock which is now discontinued.

@@ianwhite5799 yes the greatest springer air rifle ever made.

There’s something called google mate

Don't you find pcps just feel dead though? I like to feel like I'm shooting something. Pcps have their uses but I'd never really bond with one.

@@jimmynich4791 I've just come back in from the rifle range. Been shooting a Ruger 10/22 rim-fire, guaranteed to put a smile on. The PCP I have at the moment is only an entry-level bullpup by Kral arms, I will be upgrading to something nicer in the year. Once I find the right PCP, get an FAC license and up its potential I don't think it'll feel dead. (Can you tell I'm in this for the long haul)👍

If you struggle with an automatic safety that indicates that you have room to improve your shooting massively. Having a consistent shot cycle increases accuracy because learning to shoot subconsciously is key. Subconscious actions you do every day for example reaching for a door handle to open it is a subconscious action, how often do you miss the handle? Changing gears while driving a car is another example. You can train yourself to shoot faster and more accurately and disengage a safety automatically. This is just the tip of the iceberg of what can be done by tweaking how you think about things.

Detwanging the spring can you tell what that means I also bought this gun it's hit or miss for me shooting a 3 inch metal target at 30 yards I miss alot

@@Wolverine7441 The "twang" comes from the spring and piston slop. Obviously you have to take the rifle apart, using a spring compressor. I added nylon washers on both ends of the spring, less than 1/8 inch thick and same diameter of the spring. Otherwise if the nylon washers are too thick you won't be able to engage the shear. Also added two nylon buttons on the piston, towards the end. Two holes have to be drilled into the piston housing and the buttons have to be sized so that the piston fits snug but not tight in the piston tube. As for accuracy the end of the barrel needs to be re-crowned.

HW97 KT* same internals as any 97/77 but with a thumb hole stock, hence the T.

Try different scale

Wood is a natural product with varying density. It’s probably the stock.

In the rest of the world they're known as the HW50. I don't know why the UK is different.

Here in America its the HW50s, AOA sells them quick. I have the HW30 and I have gotten laughed at for the “little toy gun” until they see the accuracy. Just ordered this rifle😊

@@duksuh77 The only explanation I can think of is the low sub 12ft UK air rifle law. I won't get into a discussion about UK gun laws, it is what is.

Most definitely.

Second doubts on a WEIHRAUCH?? You must be kidding, You got one of the best (if not the BEST) air rifles, of the best Air rifle company in the world!

@@greekveteran2715 it arrived a couple days after I posted this, the rifle is great however I need to adjust it and get sights fitted for it. For now I can hit a 1" target from 20ft away with no sights. By chance can you recommend a scope for it?

@@jackevans7665 Hawke scope 4x16x50 great at 50 yards, you can clearly see where your pellet hits the target. On top of the last one you shot, lol.

@@r.m.8374 Perhaps. I had a guy on another vid suggest a f1 cobra. But they're really expensive.

totally different. HW30 is for children, is smaller and low powered and comes with a scope. I had one and sent it back and swapped it for a hw99s.

In US I believe it is the HW 50 s .

which model is that ?

Chinese junk lol

At that price you won't find a better trigger unit. For a beginner there are many good cheaper alternatives but they are let down by their trigger.

its a hw 99s , weihrauch

@Wayne Gittins thanks

@@buckrussel3808 What bollocks!

Buck Russel Your a twit

To be fair though, everyone has. People having issues with £2000 brand new FX rifles sometimes.

I watch a review of Stoeger after shooting it the reviewer found it good for propping open doors or wedging under a car wheel to stop it rolling away. Let’s just say it’s not a weihruach.

I have an 18 month old hw99s with no problems, very consistent accurate .177 out of the box

I bought a new one a month back ... No galling at all , just little dieseling still there wjen I take her out to shoot for first few shots ... 300 shots through and she's a ragged holer , super easy to shoulder and handle and shoot. Built solidly and I do prefer her now over my 95 😉 Awsm rifle hw50.. Cheers

Same gun as the HW50 in USA. For my needs, it's hands down the best springer out there. Just the right size and weight. Great trigger. Fantastic accuracy. Plenty power out to 45-50 yards for pest control, squirrel, and rabbit with head shots.

Check out the tbt RU-vid video about this gun. Nick explains how to fix it. I've fitted one of his kits and tuned my 99, it's made it a great gun.

Bought a new one 12 months ago and after about 30 shots on each occasion the galling problem arose, but after a quick search on utube a modification cured this and is now a superb rifle.

Τι εννοείς? Είναι προβληματικό το 99? Θέλω να αγοράσω αεροβόλο. Πιο WEIHRAUCH είναι το καλύτερο το 99s 95, 98 ή 97? Μπορείς να με βοηθήσεις? Θα σου είμαι ευγνόμων

@@greekveteran2715 το 97k πρώτο με διαφορά σε 177

@@kostasbalbagadis1507 Ο μόνος λόγος που κόλησα και δε το πήρα, είναι η διόπτρα, που μου είπαν παντού ότι απαγορεύεται, οπότε, το κοιτάω σε HW80 22 cal Σε ευχαριστώ για τη βοήθεια!!

You mean a gamo ? As that's who now owns bsa

Gamo of Spain own BSA, buddy

Fx is a PCP that costs 5-10x the price of the 99s but accuracy is same out to 50yrds with a good shooter.

Is a 4x9by30 a good scope?

Hawk or viper mtc
