    Beeman R7 Vortek PG4 Kit Chrono Results

    PG4 Kit/Vortek vacu-seal in my HW30. Also shooting 8 to 8.5#. Great shot cycle and very accurate. Put an ARH kit in my R7. It's good and closer to 7.5#. Oddly, it can shoot as well, but tougher to do so.

    Air Arms TX200 or TX200HC? - For Accuracy & Quiet

    Not really sure you can go wrong. My .177 TX200HC with custom ARH kit. Stock was bone dry and worked many coats of hand rubbed finish into it. The AA rifles are all pretty sublime.

    HW35 or HW50

    Have both. The stainless finish being the most recent acquisition, albeit a bit older rifle. Couldn't have had more than a few dozen shots through it. Installed an ARH spring, guides and seal. Picked up the fantastic Gehmann sight from a great forum member. The grooved walnut stock looks elegant...

    HW/Weihrauch Anyone install a Hw30 ARH kit lately?

    Yes, I installed an ARH kit with the Vortek vacu-seal in my R7 this past March. Last check shooting 7.5#, give or take. I can chronograph a few pellets and see where it has settled in at. You're not interested, but I used the Vortek PG4/vacu-seal in my HW30. For accuracy, it will give the...

    HW35 or HW50

    Man, that stinks. I had a 97K show up with many stock finishing issues from Krale. I sent numerous emails but couldn't get support other than mailing it all back which was 4 times as expensive as the shipping was here. Not long after that I bought an HW98 from AoA. Decided a "deal"wasn't always...

    Beeman What does "select stock" mean?

    You have a lot of memories there! it is great when we can share our hobbies. My wife recently came out to the shooting bench to chat. I asked if she wanted to shoot some targets and she did. Started with a diopter sighted HW35, then I pulled out an R7, an HW50, and a pair of FWB300S juniors. She...

    HW/Weihrauch Hw30s tuning with it?

    I have both a newer HW30 with a Vortek PG4 kit/seal and an older R7 with ARH spring/guides and the Vortek Vacu-Seal. You won't go wrong either way with these. I think the PG4 kit is perhaps best suited to the lower powered rifles with its reduced spring diameter. My HW30 will outshoot the R7 in...

    N/A 14-15fpe .22 Springer

    I do have an English Tomahawk in .22 and there's something special with these rifles. They are few and far between!

    Vortex tune kit for hw95

    I installed a PG4 HO kit in a 97K and its exceptional at 15#. I put an ARH Hornet kit in a HW98 and it works well and runs 15.5#, give or take. I've thought it might be a better knocked down just a smidge. Perhaps that will happen given some time.

    Tune a Beeman R7?

    I have a tuned R7, HW30, HW50 and many of the rest of the HW line. The R7 is a shrouded barrel rifle with ARH internals. It can either drive absolute tacks, or frustrate. It's a shooter, but usually seems to be under some degree of calibration. The HW30 has a Vortek PG4 kit, Corcoran walnut...

    HW/Weihrauch Refinishing beech stocks...

    Honestly, it's not that complicated. The wood is hard and not receptive to stain. Manufactures just shoot beech with tinted catalyzed finish. You can build color on beech with stain, but can't finish with rubbed oil as it will float the stain. Must stain and shoot finish. Or shoot stained finish.

    HW/Weihrauch Refinishing beech stocks...

    Beech is tough, but you can get some color and contrast with some effort. I haven't done a HW stock, but have refreshed a beat to death Feinwerkbau 300S rifle. I have pics somewhere....

    Tuning ARH black tar ?

    I've been using the Vortek stuff on springs and internals and Slip2000 EWG on all contact points, pivots, etc. All good stuff. Anyone have any idea what the origin of the Vortek grease is?
