    What springer did you shoot today?

    Have you heard of the Burris Signature picatinny rings? They come with 0, 10, and 20 MOA ring inserts that allow you to nearly perfectly align the optically centered scope to your desired zero. They are very high quality and have the benefit of 6 screws per cap. The insert material also “grips”...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    There was some rivalry today with the 98 and 30. I took the 98 hunting and I think it hurt 30’s feelings. So, right before it got dark I gave 30 the chance to express herself. She gave me this 10 shot nickel sized group at 30m and I conceded that I would try to take her hunting next time. The 30...

    N/A What is your "coolest" springer...?

    I found my one and only. If I had to have a one and only, that is. She’s a .177 Weihrauch HW98 doing 13.5 fpe with 8.44s. Vortek PG4 spring kit, Rowan setback trigger blade, and a Leupold 4-12 AO inside a BKL one piece mount(droop compensated) round her out nicely. She regularly shoots dime...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    Spent some time at 30m to see how the 98 was feeling. I’m also trying to finish the last tin of the JSB 8.44s so I can try the new AA 8.44s that recently arrived. Pretty good results with two 5 shot groups under a dime even though the darkness overtook me again. Squirrel season is in here in VA...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    It got dark on me again, but I did manage to install the new BKL-260D7 mount, get zeroed, and shoot a few groups. My hunch was correct, with 8.44’s doing 850 fps @ 13.5 fpe a 19m zero gives me zero at 31m also, perfect. My PBR should be roughly 14m-35m…wonderful!! Btw, I really like this self...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    A quick session at a lasered 31.5 meters with the 98 this evening yielded 5 shots that fit under a nickel. The paint splatter on the steel makes groups look larger so I'm pretty sure they would have fit under a penny. It was right before final dark but between the large white spinner and the...

    N/A What is your "coolest" springer...?

    Definitely my HW98 in .177 with a CS800 stock doing 13.5 fpe. It’s the perfect size and power of springer for target shooting and hunting, imo.

    N/A 14-15fpe .22 Springer

    Is your 95 untuned/original condition that it does 16 fpe in .20?

    What springer did you shoot today?

    Because of the wind, I only spent time at the 20 yard spinners with the 98 today. 5/5 on the 1/2” spinner…this gun is a shooter. It is supposed to have a 12 fpe Vortek kit installed but it is pushing 8.44s to 850 fps(consistently) which is around 13.5 fpe so I’m not sure. I think I like it at...

    HW/Weihrauch Who shoots 22 Weihrauchs at 50 yards or more?

    I hate to assume that you don’t realize…fairly certain the OP is only interested in .22 springers in this thread.

    HW/Weihrauch Who shoots 22 Weihrauchs at 50 yards or more?

    I am following this with interest as I have never owned or used a .22 springer. I have used and owned multiple .177 Weihrauchs(3 currently). I’m of the opinion that the .177 is superior in almost every facet except maybe in 15+fpe rifles and when maximum down range energy is desired. Even with...

    N/A .177 8-9 grain lead pellet of choice

    I’m running an HW98 that is supposed to have a 12 fpe Vortek kit installed. It feels peppy, though, like it could be pushing 13 fpe. That may be a false impression, however, as I’ve been shooting my HW30 quite a bit recently. I really need to chronograph it to verify. It sounds like it might be...

    N/A .177 8-9 grain lead pellet of choice

    I'm running some JSB Exact 8.44 pellets in my 12 fpe break barrel springer. The pursuit of accuracy and precision is probably my first ammo choice priority followed closely by small game hunting effectiveness. I also do a fair amount of plinking and target shooting on the side so cost/shot is a...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    I was able to get out with the 30 and 98 again before the light left. At 18 meters, they are both scary accurate. I’ve yet to miss my smallest spinner(which is smaller than a dime) with the 98 sending my confidence in its consistency through the roof. This is my first 12 ft/lb springer in this...

    What springer did you shoot today?

    That is a Bushnell Legend Ultra HD 3-9x40 duplex that has side focus 10-infinity. Great glass for the money but I wish it had a bdc style reticle.

    What springer did you shoot today?

    A little sibling rivalry today with the 30 and 98 in .177. At 18 meters, no dime is safe between this pair!

    Droop compensating dovetail to picatinny rail

    I’m looking for a droop compensating one piece rail to use on my R9 break barrel that has a little barrel droop. Does anyone make something like that?
