Back to shooting a springer air rifle for the winter. Hopefully
with a bit of practice I can get reasonably accurate again with
one.
Looking forward to it anyway and then see what the new year
brings...... ;D

Apparently 18ft lb. Ideal for a springer in my humble opinion.
Thought about a PCP at about 30 ft lb but the cost was huge so
decided on a springer and hopefully a 17hmr in the new year,
will save me a couple of hundred and extend the range nicely.
Well thats the plan anyway....

What make and model is it ?
I've got a variation in atm for an air rifle I've gone for a
springer to just go simplicity, maybe get a pcp in the future...

Its a Weihrauch HW97KT in .22. Have shot a few pellets through
and seems well accurate out at 30m. Will keep at it and see.how
it.goes.

BSAOZZY, I just tuned mine. It made a big difference. I replaced
the spring guide and top hat. I was able to get an inch group at
55yards.

Snap, Where did you get the kit, did you do it yourself, does it
smooth out the recoil?
What power is yours.
Inch group at 55yds might need more than a tune for me!!!!
Any info appreciated as i enjoyed shooting it today so would be
interested.
Cheers
