Outback 1 26 Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Nice usable recticle there , I like a 1/2" kill zone my self and a long flat trajectory , the range distance you have will get you zeroed started then confirm your second distance when your out . With Chairgun you can tailor your zero to your requirements . ATB Quote Link to post

Phill-W68 547 Posted September 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 I put my details from the chrono readings into chairgun, and it read as the hw100 shooting at 11.97ft/lbs with jsb diablo exact 4.52, now that seems a little too close to the legal UK limit, I'm worried that a different chrono or pellet might give a higher reading, as I said in my 1st post I purchased the hw100 2nd hand, could I have it turned down a touch? If so anybody know where & who or is it sent back to weihrauch to be altered... Cheers peeps Quote Link to post

I am Spartacus ! I've downloaded Chairgun a couple of times, but......I just don't get it ! I'm far from stupid, and I can turn my hand to most things, but I'm just not teccy minded.

HW100 pushing out 11.9. Mate you have a potent executioner there Quote Link to post
villaman 9,983 Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Fairly easy to adjust but you can buy aftermarket hammer and shuttle which is adjustable Quote Link to post
philpot 4,998 Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Phil, I have tried chairgun a number of times and never yet got a result that actually works ....................................... it's me, I know it's me but I just cannot get my head round the bloody thing. It is out in the field for me at measured distances to get the hold over info. I think Hawke are going to be at the South Yorkshire Shooting Show next weekend so if Doncaster is not too far for you, have a day out with some of us and have a chat with Hawke at the same time.

Phill-W68 547 Posted September 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Just got to make sure all information you put in is spot on , even bc for your pellet can make a difference , how do or how would I measure the BC (ballistic coefficient I think BC stands for) of my chosen pellet...

villaman 9,983 Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Three ways of doing it far as i know , One having Two chronographs one at muzzle and the other say about 50 yards away Two probably the easy method Aim at target on your zero range then at say again at 50 yards ,then measure the drop of pellet Three by sound but not worth it imo Then go on chairgun , tools , calculate BC Quote Link to post
