    RM100Guy, Now that is a serious comparison test. Thanks for taking the time to document this and some really good shooting there and no bench rest. . I like the fact that the only thing you worry about is run-in* out of them ha!

    Crosman pellet confusion

    All that makes good sense to me. All my air rifles are definitely under 1800 ft/ sec. I’ll have to do some research into hand lapping , polishing and waxing a barrel as have never heard of it.

    Crosman pellet confusion

    I wish I could be content just shooting soup cans . Unfortunately I cursed with always wanting to shoot very small targets and 10 meter bulls eye targets at to far distances. I get constant immediate reinforcement on just how bad I’m shooting. But occasionally I do pull off a string of...

    Crosman pellet confusion

    Hello dgeeaman, Interesting comments. Thanks for replying. I didn’t realize that high quality premium barrels were less likely to lead up. That’s reassuring info. Also I haven’t notice a great difference in head or skirt size with Crosman’s . I’ll have to watch out for that going forward.

    Crosman pellet confusion

    I have a question about using Corpsman pellets as some experienced shooters here state that they never use them and proceeded to explain why.I use Crosman’s all the time in my guns and now I’m a bit concerned about it . It apears that Crosman’s are of a harder composition, and may deposit this...

    HW30 / R7 stripped grub screw question.

    Big thanks to members, Max trouble,Beerthief,Devils Luck and Hateful McNasty for taking the time to help me out. Max trouble, I did check out TC Chambers but they didn’t have a part number for that little grab screw so sent them a text asking about it but no reply . Devels Luck, I think...

    HW30 / R7 stripped grub screw question.

    Hi, I managed to strip the threads of the small grub screw that holds the back block In position. I guess I didn’t have it quite lined up with the hole in the receiver when reassembling the gun after a Vortek kit installation . Does anybody know the size of this grub screw? It’s not listed...

    HW30 Woes

    Ok Thanks . I completely misunderstood your comment about the compressor. I have made a solid compressor to take out all the springs in my air rifles. I just have a hard time getting the pivot bolt in with the two shims because of the tolerances. I do realize that the pivot bolt and shims go...

    HW30 Woes

    You mentioned “making a simple press” to make the pivot bolt/ shim washer installation easier. I have had problems myself not with my HW 30 but with my HW95. The tolerance are so tight, it can be a nightmare. Could you explain this in a bit more detail? Thanks , Al

    Hw30 / R7 lock up issues and fixes

    What a great detailed informative write- up . I almost gave up on my new HW 30 and then read this. As previously mentioned, my gun was vertically stringing when I first got it. I changed the piston seal , spring and breech seal with no change. It could not be shot with a scope but iron...

    HW/Weihrauch New WH30 problems

    MdFiskI’ll & Tumblingflight , E Mrider, Fishing43 and Windmill01, Thanks for taking the time to respond with very helpful comments. Yes I did try the tissue test as thought it might possibly be a bad breach seal. The seal was new and looked new. It appear to be put in with the flat side down...

    HW30 Woes

    Wow Gary,Great video! Thanks for sharing. That is some fantastic shooting! The 77 is one accurate rifle. Is it stock, no upgrades? What power is your Airmax? I have an Airmax 4-12 x50 on my 97k. I don’t think I could hit something that small and 71 meters though. I also think your W H...

    HW30 Woes

    Hey Gary, Is your HW50 as accurate as the HW77? I have a HW97K basically the same gun as the 77. Was shooting it tonight along with the HW50. The 97 has a Vortek 12ftlb kit installed and is unbelievablely accurate. I also put a full power Vortek spring in the HW50 . The twang was...

    HW30 Woes

    Good for you Windmill01. I also have a 50 and installed a Vortek drop in kit. Mine had bad gaulling issues. Don’t think I’m a fan of these 2 piece cocking leavers. I took the gun apart, watched a few YouTube‘s and managed to fix it. Getting the pivot bolt and two thin washer shims back in...

    HW/Weihrauch New WH30 problems

    Thanks for taking the time to reply R. I made a mistake in my initial explanation . I should’ve said vertical string instead of horizontal string , may have caused some confusion. I did try your idea of putting some Loctite on the pivot bolt end but true to form somehow I managed to strip the...

    HW/Weihrauch New WH30 problems

    Thanks for the comment Myecapt65. I’d did make a mistake , I meant vertical spread , not horizontal. Thank you for pointing that out to me. The pellet that stuck in the barrel were Crosman domed 7.9, the ones you get in the big brown box . During my research on here I read some we’re having...

    HW/Weihrauch New WH30 problems

    Thanks for the comment windmill01. Selling it is probably the best way forward here but how could I honestly sell it to someone unless I pretty well gave it away. I probably just answered my own question. The thing is I must’ve read over 50 maybe 60 reviews about this gun and not one person seem...

    HW/Weihrauch New WH30 problems

    I would appreciate a bit of help here as sort of hit the wall. I recently purchased a new WH30s and so far it has been a very frustrating process, probably the worst shooting gun I’ve ever owned . The problem is there are sudden drastic shifts in the horizontal POI ? It’s as if the power is...
