WEIHRAUCH HW97K .22



Bought myself a HW97K in .22, I wanted a good quality .22 with a fixed barrel, I have owned HW77s and TX200s in the past and had heard good things about the 97, The weight is good about 9lbs, It has a good balance. I have put my 10x44 Viper scope on her so that's increased the weight a bit. Was quick to zero and seems to like falcon accuracy pellets that I find really good with a flatter flight because they are very light for a .22. I like the look of the gun the under lever catch is very good quality. I was also able to keep the scope sun shade on as the loading port is wide and open .Because its a .22 the recoil is less harsh than a .177, so far i am thinking this will become my main springer.

WEIHRAUCH HW57 .22 REVIEW


 My son has owned one of these for a few years , they are quite unique with the self opening loading port, the gun is quite light and very easy to cock. you get the accuracy of the fixed barrel but the lightness of a break barrel. The trigger is the Rekord two-stage, these are probably the best triggers you can get. One of the best features is the pop up breach this makes the gun very safe compared to most under levers as there is no chance of losing a finger, so ideal for a young shooter who wants an under lever.
