What springer did you shoot today?
- Thread starter crowski
- Start date
Motorhead tuned D460 .22, 14.6gr FTTs, UTG 3X12, hadn't fired it in several weeks. Collared dove was quickly picked up by the barn cat, win-win! It looks like spring has finally arrived in my area, looking forward to "taking it outside".

Beautiful gun. I’m not at all familiar, but see a gem. Love the stock and sights and the whole gun. 97% of my guns are current. But I admire yesterdays more. Thanks for sharing. Crow
You’re lucky you have access to professional tuners.
Cats are handy. Looking forward to decent weather.
The last rifle I bought was a 460. Shot awesome then soundEd odd. Broken spring. Just received a Vortek spring and piston seal few days ago. Another iron in the fire. Crow

I found my grandads old Em-Ge Zenith in the cleaning cupboard for some reason, so I had to give it a shot. It's definitly no match for my FWB 65 so I put it back with the rags again.

Well for the past several days been shooting the HW95L field pro 177 cal BUt BuT with a twist. I had ordered a 22 call barrel for this rifle . And have been breaking it in . I felt even with a new ARH spring kit it was over sprung for 177 . Verdict still out on the 22cal barrel . If ever I get fed up with spring air rifles this would be the first to go so far not a fan of the HW 95 
love my 97 an love love my Hw90 I feel my Diana 48 is way better than the 95 my Diana 34 with crap trigger is better . ( well the 34 is broken ) just venting this rifle has been a pain ever sense I received it in January I’ll go another 500 pellets if the doesn’t become useful . The scope an mount come off an it gets cleaned oiled an b put were I can’t see it again , let my kid deal with it when I die

Wow Froggy that’s ironic. I was shooting my HW95 .22 this afternoon and it was so accurate. I was putting the odd round though a 3/8 hole 35 yds.

Today I spent a few hours fixing my spinners. Did get to hit a few. Started off with a Pro Sport .22. This gun is always ready 
Ya that’s more snow. This gun is so easy to shoot and so accurate. Great gun.
Next I got a HW95 .22. Again right from the first shot deadly accurate.
Plain Jane but gets the job done. This is a fantastic hunting rifleThe last I grabbed was a HE35e .177.
I didn’t get a lot of shots off with the 35. It was windy and only 30F. I smacked the targets around pretty good. Crow

Another fine showing of springers thank you. I do have a question about your 22cal 95 . What weight of pellets does it like best? And I notice JSB tins on the table . Most of the22 pellets I have are 16 gr an heavier HN and. AA brand. food for the hW90 Frogy

I generally shoot JSB 15.89. I’ve found JSB’s to be accepted by all springers. I have a few other weights, but again found the 15.89 my favorite. Crow

Froggy another reason I liked the 15.89 because I use and like the accuracy on the JSB Hades which is 15.89 as well. Crow

The pellets jccams and Crowski mentioned both work really well in my 95 Luxus .22. I prefer the JSB 15.89. A little less power (right at 16 FPE) than the FTT, similar accuracy. But 20+ mph winds are the norm around here so I like the heavier pellets. And shot cycle a hair smoother with the JSB.

Froggy I took the liberty to shoot the 95 again and a R9 both .22. I thought the Beeman had a different stock, must of been another lifetime. These two are identical. Don’t remember them being together. Their my twins . Shot them for 1 1/2 hrs.
These are the rounds I used,
I don’t have any H&N’s in .22. That could change.
I tried these that I had on hand.
‘Neither agreed with the AA’s
Both guns favoured the 15.89’s and the Hades. The dome is best but it’s surprising how accurate the Hades is. Crow

I discharged myself from hospital late last night. There are some urgent maters I have to deal with and being in hospital just wouldn’t cut it. They didn’t want to discharge me because there was still some infection showing up in my blood tests. I was on the most strongest antibiotic drip available for 5 days. They gave me a prescription for oral antibiotics for the next 5 days at home. At least the swelling has gone down a lot and the infection in my blood is going in the right direction.
I had facial cellulitis, thanks for asking.
