    Got it back together it’s like a different gun, I can balance a pellet on top it won’t fall of when fired, recoil is a totally different feel now still there but hardly and it doesn’t jump like before, no twang at all just a sharp thud firing cycle feels a lot better a Great kit that was easy to fit bit of sanding the guide and took 10mm of so fit perfect. the tweaks to trigger makes a massive difference as well I just set back the first stage and got rid of creap it cracks now, I used a smear of molly on spring and piston then I used dry moly spray in cylinder pleased with the end result, I

    Little update on the 99, so I stripped it down and gave it a clean and relube just to see if I could all went well but still quite abit of twang. So it’s now currently in bits and I’ve polished piston, spring ends and polished ears on end of cocking arm, removed spring from delrin in cocking arm and sanded it where needed, ive ordered a tbt kit so just waiting on that not sure how long they take but hopefully early next week. A guy on fb talked me through the whole process I’ve even managed to tweak the trigger so all in all if kit fits with not to much bother it was a lot easier than I though

    Doing well so far put on another 3kg since last post, he’s a natural around cover and jumps for fun seems to have abit of speed for a gangly pup but time will tell. Got a feeling he’s going to make 26-27tts

    I’ve been looking for a new scope to put on a hw99s it’s the only rifle I got I have a hawke fast mount 3-9x40ao on it that I bought when I got my sons rifle but due to his size he couldn’t get eye relief so I ordered some sportsmatch mounts and stuck it on the 99. It’s ok but I find the recticle to thick when out at distance, has anyone on here had or owned the vortex diamondback 3-9x40? It looks a good scope and reviews look good comes with a lifetime warranty I think but I can’t find one local to look at it so going to have to order online. The recticle in pics I’ve seen look good but would

    Abit of advice please? I’ve watched loads of videos on stripping down the 99 and I feel happy to strip it but not so sure I would like to tune it so the question is if I strip it down clean it and polish it myself and by some bum slide then re install it back to original will it make much of a difference? Is there anything else I can do as in lubing oiling while it’s apart to make it better? While there I’ll remove spring from plastic in cocking arm and free up knuckle abit and see if it’s rubbing anywhere sand we’re appropriate, am I right in thinking this will stop any future gauling? Any ad

    Pups doing well dont stop growing, he is 3 months tomorrow weighing in at 11kg. Making a strong pup
  16. Roughhunt88
    I haven’t had it apart so I can’t say what’s really happening inside but I’ve read lots about these as well only reason I’m inclined to have in tuned. Atb

    I bought mine a week ago and hammered it every night on second tin of pellets I can’t notice any gauling. I grabbed some cheap Wembley pellets yesterday for £7 as the only place real close is moles and all they had In .177 they seem to shoot as well as the field Diablo I went through so doesn’t seem fussy either
  18. Roughhunt88
    I’ve been having a think and not sure I’m comfortable messing with it myself and as it’s a .177 I’d rather someone has a go that knows what their doing with it, Don’t want nothing mad doing just a clean/tune to standard that is needed so it will last and perform well. The more I use it the more I can notice the twang don’t get me wrong I’m not looking for a pcp otherwise I would have bought one just think it could be smoother so I’m going to do abit of research and see if I can find some one.. the closest to me looks like air- fective has anyone had any work done by them? Or is there anyone in
  19. Roughhunt88
    Is this what I would be looking for?
  20. Roughhunt88
    I’ll order a kit and go for it sometimes you got to run before you can walk ??
  21. Roughhunt88
    Thanks for that, I’ve never took any of my previous rifles apart but watching video it looks pretty straight forward. Are spring guides easy to fit? And would I need to do anything else to get the best out of it would the spring guides and polish and bum slide do the trick or would I have to add or change anything else?
  22. Roughhunt88
    I have nothing to compare it to except my boys gamo junior so it does kick compared to that, I’m happy with it out the box but if a little polish ect can make it last longer and perform better then why not I geuss

    I recently bought a new hw99s in .177 first air rifle in years, I’ve had brake barrel and pcp in the past but sold them all years ago after going to a local shop holding the 99s it felt right so I bought it there n then mounted it with a hawke 3-9x40 scope and away I went, I have no complaints after putting a Tin of pellets through it very accurate little kick but I like it. Now I been doing abit of research and I see they can be better with a little clean fine tune and can last longer if tuned now I don’t no where to start and wouldn’t want to do this myself, can anyone point me in the right
