JackReid 35 Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Awesome gun, have fired and used myself. May be worth getting a spring to take the edge off th weight while walking around.My mate uses AA fields / RWS Superfields. I would zero at 30m max and working out any drop from there!

zini 1,939 Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 The HW97K is a brilliant rifle mate. I rate it as one of the best hunting spring rifles on the market. The new HW97KT is a dream rifle too and if tuned will chanllenge any springer currently on the market due to its great design, smoothness and accuracy and aided by the new thumbhole stock. I used to own a HW97K that was tuned and i have regretted selling it ever since. Its quite capable of taking any UK vermin at max range easily if matched with the correct pellet. Mine loved RWS Super domes and AA Fields in .22 calibre. Si Quote Link to post
