Mainly a fan of break barrels but couldn't resist an underlever! Been missing out for so long Crazy accurate and plenty of power

Venom Muzzle weight and a set back trigger by Steve Pope. Internals done too !Not a under lever guy ,but that’s nice. Is the under break set up factory
Except for the sling eyelet , but yes thanks a lot its hardly done any work and the Venom Muzzle weight and trigger are nice period touchesIt's really nice to see such an old gun that's been so well modified and so beautifully maintained!
Is that a Venom or an Airmasters?
WOW, that makes it even better! If Pope reworked it, doesn't that make it a Venom? I think the blackened breech slide was only an option on request? Some really nice HW77 are coming out of the woodwork recently!Venom Muzzle weight and a set back trigger by Steve Pope. Internals done too !
I have to open it up to see if piston is buttoned but all the signs are there as we never had " Hull Cartridge " guns in AustraliaWOW, that makes it even better!

If you look on the ad below there were also numerous accessories that could be fitted so hard for me to confirm exactly. At this point I'm just joining the dot'sWOW, that makes it even better!

Definitely a firm spring, not outrageous though! I've put more shots through so hopefully it'll settle Will chrono over the weekendThat's a beautiful rifle! That's monster power for a 177 77. I'd love to see the insides.
On another note, how does that chrony work.. Im getting tired of my old Beta chrony acting up in sunlight or sometimes sound will throw it off.

You have to be patient Means going through my old stash of Airgun World magazine's ThanksI'd love to see more detail on that ad, especially of the Venom HW77 Trophy. If it's not too much trouble to post a photo with less exposure, it would be greatly appreciated.

Nice job indeed....its just personal but I'd go brown recoil pad. Beautiful piece of walnutThat is just lovely, don't often see guns of that age in such nice condition
Always been too late to the party when they come up over here so built a 'tribute' myself.....

......but of course it will never have the name, or carry the prestige associated with those early tuning pioneers.....
Dya know its the only clay/ red pad I've used, as it seemed like the 'custom' thing to do but....totally agree with you, can't beat classic brownNice job indeed....its just personal but I'd go brown recoil pad. Beautiful piece of walnut
