villaman 9,982 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Had my HW100kt back from Darrin (XTX AIR) its been in for the removable of the anti tamp and all new o rings plus a polish of the internals and the barrel re crowned and a service , I know its only a month old before I sent it away , any how scoped it up , re zeroed put the crombo on ,with jsb heavies 10.3gr 712 fps 11.60 ft/lb , AA fields 8.44gr 782 fps 11.40 ft/lb AA express 7.9gr 804 fps 11.34ft/lb ,so less than .3 ft lb between heavies and light pellets ,with these 3 brands of pellets this gun is just so accurate even more than before if that's possible . This afternoon went to one of my permissions just see what these pellets are like at long range ,all are very good but the ones which stand out are the AA express 7.9 ,as it happens a rabbit popped out at 45 yards and with 1/2 mill dot hold over shot it and went down with out a kick . these are just a great pellet in the HW100kt 1 Quote Link to post
ryaldinhio 4,804 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 out of interest .177 or .22? Quote Link to post
treecreeper 1,136 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 id say 1.77 from the pellet weights Quote Link to post
villaman 9,982 Posted August 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Yes ,.177 if you look at the pellet weight . Just got back from shooting had another 5 so well happy with these pellets Quote Link to post
Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 How many good shots you get per fill with the .177 VM? Is it the standard hw carbine cylinder, or the A&M one? Quote Link to post

treecreeper 1,136 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 5 full mags is 70 shots. I get the same from my standard k cylinder. Quote Link to post
villaman 9,982 Posted August 31, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Yes your right sorry late night 1 Quote Link to post
Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted August 31, 2014 Report Share Posted August 31, 2014 Not too bad that then Quote Link to post
Seamaster 153 Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 I got 70 from my KS, now I've got an A&M cylinder I still get 70 but it's much lighter and, more importantly, better balanced. Chris Quote Link to post
Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 I thought the a&m cylinder was meant to give more shots than the hw one??? Quote Link to post
Seamaster 153 Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 I think it varies mate. You certainly don't get less shots but I think my gun was pretty well set up before I changed the cylinder so I haven't noticed a difference in shot count. Chris Quote Link to post
villaman 9,982 Posted September 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 I have one on my HW100kt .22 and getting about 110 shots instead of ,like Chris said better balanced . I think I will get another one for the .177 Quote Link to post
bigmac 97kt 13,813 Posted September 2, 2014 Report Share Posted September 2, 2014 There you go Skot if vm put a pic up of it you will see what a real hw100 looks like not like the make bi leave one that is the smk, never mind just a few more years of saving and you will own a proper one :tongue2: Could not help my self vm sorry atvbmac :thumbs: 1 Quote Link to post
Skot Ruthless Teale 1,701 Posted September 3, 2014 Report Share Posted September 3, 2014 Lol mac dont need to save could buy a 'upgraded' cylinder right now.. but i dont see the point. I find the weight and balance of my smk perfect anyway and 92 shots is enough for me Quote Link to post
