    A Christmas miracle!

    I ordered TBT kit for my problem 97 late on Sunday. Not expecting to receive it until the New Year. It arrived Tuesday noon!! Happy days.

    HW97 woes.

    My reasonably new to me 2017 .177 hw97 shots erratically occasionally - six on target, three low then two high and back on target again. Put it through a chrono an there is a 35fps spread. So I installed briteals, piston and breach. Chrono results:- JSB 10.34 heavies 684 687 666 683 11.2FT/P...

    HW97 Cocking arm spring.

    Mine is very stuff and a pita to operate and I can only depress the release button with my right hand and some effort. I would like to explore fitting a lighter spring but cannot see how to disassemble the arm. The B&K diagram doesn't offer any clues. Any advice would be gladly appreciated.

    HNGD to me.

    Tuned 2015 HW97 in a CS with a Sidewinder 6-25x44. No ABT. Much bling. Seller could not advise on what tuning had been done, only managed one shot so far and the lock time is very quick with very little recoil so I suspect a lightened piston, maybe even glided as well. It's loud too! If I...

    Must be a Rekord!

    I sent my HW trigger unit to Blackmax for a tune on Tuesday afternoon. It arrived back home with this morning's (Friday) post. Less than three days turnaround.

    New HW30 is a tough nut.

    Treated myself to a new 30 last week. Nice enough, shooting at 7ftlb but a bit snappy. So I ordered a TBT maxi kit which I've used to 30s and 98s before. My usual method is to remove stock, trigger unit and barrel then put the tube in a sash clamp to remove block and mainspring. But, I cannot...

    Hw30 tuning kits.

    TBT vs ARC ? Are there any members that have used both these kits in .177? If so, which do you prefer and why? Any other recommendations? I have a 30 with a TBT kit in but it is old with the Perfekt trigger and I'm looking at getting a new one with Rekord trigger and screwcut barrel. Sadly...

    Why is it...

    that when shooting a 25m benchrest card, my sighters look like this:- But my first 'proper' shot looks like this:- Futtocks!

    Scope recommendation for hw30

    Greetings all. As per title, what scope would you put on a hw30? I mainly use it for 25m benchrest so the scope needs to be at least 16x to see where I'm hitting and short enough to fit on this little rifle. Reticule not important as I only use the middle bit. And if you have such a thing...
