New Weihrauch HW95L Field Pro

Congrats on your new gun - Weihrauch makes some fine air guns. Very suitable for passing down to kids and grandkids.

I can't help you on pellet selection for your gun - The HW95 is a more powerful springer which I wouldn't shoot well. It takes trigger time and practice with a springer to get good with it, and I have been lazy and mostly shooting PCPs (which are very easy to shoot in comparison). It is not the amount recoil of a more powerful springer - You can't really compare it to shooting a firearm. The bi-directional recoil of a springer makes them shoot differently (and therefore requires a little different hold) as compared to PCP airguns, firearms, etc. I can get away a bit with my bad springer-shooting habits with my HW30S Urban Pro since it is less powerful.

One thing which my airgun shooting friends and I think about: You probably recall a pack of BB's or pellets lasting for a really long time when you were a kit. Some folks find their old BB gun in the attic, along with one of the first packs of BB's left over from when they bought it 40-50 years ago. Getting back into airguns as an adult (some will argue this about me...) I have found that I shoot way more than I did when I was a kid. Seem to always be going through this tin of 500 pellets or that tin of 250 pellets. Once you find the pellet your new gun likes, stock up. Have at least a few thousand pellets on hand for it. Plus many shops give discounts on higher volume buys - like buy 4 but pay for only 3, etc. Take advantage of those deals, plus any discount codes you can find, and get to a level where (some shops) give you free shipping. Then you can just shoot to your heart's content.

My HW 95 in .22 likes the FTT's in 5.53 or 5.54 head size, I think most Weihrauch .22's do too.

Can't hurt to run in to Walmart and grab the crosman hollow point or the pairahanas. You may find results marginal and at a less money $7 per 500 cphp 10$ per 400 pirahanas .

My saying is.

My HW95 shoots Crosmans just fine. The patterns have a few close "flyers". No biggie. Unless you are trying to shoot your best pattern possible it does not make a bunch of difference.

Mine likes the HN FTT 14.3 in the 5.53 or 5.54 head size best. The JSB 14.9 is good too. The JSB 15.8 are a little better past 50 yards. But the crosmans are almost as good as any out to about 50. Past that you begin to see a little more difference in group size using Crosmans.

The POI changes between pellet types. The Crosmans shoot high left on all my rifles as compared to the others mentioned. And they make your fingers black. Neither one negate their value for me. I shoot them by the bucketfull.

Both my HW's and the D54 have yielded the same results. I think the Hatsans like the Crosmans best. I shoot them mostly iron sight and havent compared a lot of pellets. They shoot like lasers in those guns and can easily put one on a shotgun shell out to 45-50 yards.

In none of my rifles do the Crosmans shoot wildly. Just not quite as tight as the rest. And they are half the price of a tin of JSB's.

I like 'em!
