Yes, could have fit another 2 or 3 rifles in the box too! Tracking said Netherlands to Germany to Philadelphia to Louisville, etc. Mine was technically in Germany in the morning(their time) and at my porch the next afternoon(local time). It is pretty amazing.

Ya really. Here in the usa it takes ups / fedup-x 3 days to put it on the first truck ..lol. And thats just from the store dock to the UPS/ fedup-x processing center..

Hey Guys,
Not to dig up an old thread, but I forgot to mention: I got the HW80SLK in .177 caliber and have given it a full tune.
- 17.2 FPE with JSB 10.34
- 15.8 FPE with JSB 13.43
The 13.43 give a better shot cycle, both are accurate.

I need one of those!! How does it handle compared to a standard HW80? Looks like a ARH barrel weight, did you have to file the dovetail a bit to fit it ?
ARH tune kit too?

IMO, it's way nicer vs. the previous HW80S simply because of the stock, but the (K) version or carbine is also easier to manage .... much prefer it to the longer standard barrel. Made a Delrin Muzzle Brake on my lathe, no altering existing sight grooves - can go back to open sights if desired.
Used a spring I had laying around (.138" x 34 coils), made a top-hat on the lathe and used ARH buttons.

I own several HWs, 2 30s, 2 97s, and a 95. Between your listed choices I would buy the HW50 in .177 for your given purpose. If choosing outside of these, and shooting off the bench, then the HW97 would be a great choice as well. Even my 30s shoot hole in hole at 25 yards & it’s very pleasant to shoot.

Domestic ups/fed ex needs to take a lesson from UPS international. I have ordered 3 guns from Krale, and if I get the order in fairly early in the day, their time, so it can meet their UPS pickup time, it will be here in E Texas in 3 days. Order mid day to later on Friday and it will not go out from there until Monday. I have also ordered some small items from a more luxury goods vendor in Madrid, Spain and gotten the same or slightly better service. It goes from Spain-Germany-New York- Texas, two or three days depending upon my timing of order.

Now if I have a domestic order coming UPS and say they estimate delivery on Friday, and it arrives at the nearby distribution center, Tyler, Tx, on Tuesday, which has happened, they will hold it and deliver on Friday. Why can they not upgrade the delivery time from their "estimate"?

I ordered a standard HW80 from Krale last month and the day after I ordered it, the SLK came out. The rifle had already shipped. However, the one I have is a real shooter. Accurate and no spring buzz after a thousands shots. Just a sold thump. Yours is making fantastic power.

Mine is putting out:
17.76 FPE with 9.57 Baracuda FT's.
15.14 FPE with 10.65 Baracuda Match

Nice work

I am glad I have one in the "old school" stock though. Kinda like me ;-)

Hey Zut,
If you like it, there's no reason to buy another. I've never tried Baracuda FT's or Match, but my shot cycle needs at least the weight of my 10.34 JSB's.

Yep the Baracuda Match 10.65's are just a tad more accurate, but the Baracuda FT 9.57's are right there. At 50yds the 10.65's win out. Both are excellent. Anything lighter hasn't worked well. FTT 8.65's and JSB 8.44's are all over the place.

There's always some reason to buy a Weihrauch air rifle LOL
