Thanks, I was afraid of that as it follows most of my experience with HW. I'll give the signature zees a whirl. I've used them on PB to good effect. Bending a barrel when you have an underlever is not my cup of tea.

Hw97 .20 experiences
- Thread starter khasky24
- Start date
I have a HW97KT the t stands for thumb hole stock. The thing weighs a ton with a scope but it is super consistent and not as hold sensitive as any of my other springers. Even the hw97k without the thumb hole stock has a decent amount of weight and its shoots so well

Did someone say .20 97? Installed a JM kit, along with the trigger tune, in this one in 2005. Fired 15 or so shots after the installation, and has been sitting ever since.

Based on the power you’re wanting, I’d recommend a HW80 SLK in .20 caliber.
I bet AOA can get you one Sooner than later.
You can get 19 FPE with ARH or Vortek spring. Same weight as HW97 and less fiddly to shoot

I'm a big time sinner that is for sure. Not trolling to sell just yet! I bought this along with an R9 blue laminate at the same time. Both display fading over time, although they don't see the light of day. Now I'm wondering if I have the r-9 in .20 or .177.

Pull them out and make sure they are ready. You know the next move.
You guys were discussing 20 cal pellets. I have some wicked looking pellets with the red plastic tip and H&N FTTs. Looking at Nielsen's SITE, not my gun sights, I find .200" in 14.9 and 18.9 grain slugs. They look tempting. I still need a gauge and fitting. Have a Hill pump that should work. I use it strictly on my Diana Bandit pistol. That is a fun little gat that should be 20 caliber too. But these NSA slugs should be good to test and tune. I hope some of you guys with high power guns will try them out. Be Well, Bandit

Airguns of Arizona has the
Weihrauch HW95N in .20 caliber Walnut in stock. I have two 95s both in .22 they are very accurate. I think both my HW97’s in .22 and .20 are easier to shoot better, if that makes sense.

Yes! thanks for asking...they look to be out of stock already.
I'm dithering though, there is HW30 in .20. I have an R7 in .177 and really don't need another but all of my .20 are very sweet to me. I am just a little light on $$.
Some time back one of our worthy members announced that AOA had a couple of Gehmann aperture sights on sale, barely used. I clicked "buy" at the speed of light and I got a confirmation. And then got a "oops sorry, out of stock". I think about 400 of us tried to buy the three they had. Soooo, until it ships, the fat lady ain't sung.

A four month wait so far for mine, a .20 cal HW97K Blue Lam.
Not Available?
AoA took the order for mine mid September.
I also saw them advertise recently a different break barrel HW in .20cal with a walnut stock.

As it happens, I have the 95 in .20....not in walnut, but I'm needing to recover financially. Thanks for the note.
