I also have a HW97 .22,Its is very good indeed,gets my vote.

It is thick sticky goo,ok tar it is used to tame the harmonics of the spring, nothing else, too much is bad, it has to be sticky,if it ain't sticky it ain't tar, you do not want stuff fling off in your cylinder. Taming the harmonics is just quieting the spring.if it ain't thud is dud:ROFLMAO:

When mine failed in my R9 it was the old style and it broke and got wedged in the cylinder and spring,thus the rifle would cock,but would not return and was stuck in a cock position, The newer cocking shoe is more robust.

Now the 1701,at first I had 1700, the trigger was chit, so I put the better trigger group in it and it improved a lot. I got a1701 that already has the great trigger. These are great PCP pistols .I shoot the 1701 the most because it gets a "bunch" of shots on a fill. Let me just say that...

Great groups(y), gives me something to shoot for,at 30 yds.:giggle:

I hear you.I can shoot the pistols as well as the rifles of a bag,I usually have a Burris pistol scope mounted and set at 7x for about 30 yards. I may have some pictures that the 1720 in a custom stock,nice flat surface for bench work

GooGone works for cleaning your nostrils even without being used as such:ROFLMAO:

Those two air pistols are my favorite,I keep mine as pistols, and the accuracy is indeed Great,the 1701 gets plenty of shots per fill, and both are easy to hand pump and make them what you want.

The air tubes have no rifling,anyhow let's keep it simple.Hit them hard,hit them fast. If this was a complicated matter I couldn't do it.:ROFLMAO:

OK, Whatever,I was a marble champion, but just alright with pool so I know about backspin. We shooters use backspin to make the marble or Q-ball,"stick" and set up our next shots. I will never get too old not to learn something, (y)(y)Thanks for a new to me meaning.

I have my "hop-up parts" in-house.I have learned quite a bit in the last week about the different models of Daiseys'. I will also need to make a larger and longer stock for them..Getting the new higher-power kit in the tube is a small challenge. I am not going to chronograph the results, you...

would bring up BBguns and tuning; I have put aside my Pellet guns for a while while I taking a trip into the past and the future,I have been shooting some old and new BB rifles, Like the Daisey 25,99 and 499 Target model,it is a fun break, also I have ordered some "hop up parts" I going to push...

A good trigger (y)

Not so, I have a Burris pistols scopes that have adjustable AO and there are others , another thing, I have no problem shooting 30 yds with non-adjustable AO ,one more thing ,there are scopes called scout scopes that fit in front of a rifle that may also work ;ak the Cooper scout scope.

Yes,I always break my springers in first, some I do not like at first, like the HW50,I did not like it at all , even after shooting a thousand pellets through it;, finally put a JM Tune kit in it and now I like it much better, all my new springers get broke in and after that, they all get JM...
