charlie caller 3,654 Posted June 15, 2018 Report Share Posted June 15, 2018 Well why would he not, they are quite simply the best spring rifle out there, (if you sort the trigger) seriously smooth, almost pcp quiet with a moderator, and the lock time, well shoot one and find out. 2 Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,553 Posted June 16, 2018 Report Share Posted June 16, 2018 One of my mates off another forum said,- A lot of HFT shooters are using these rifles Mark, that in itself answers many a question. It surely does ! I fell out with the router mark on my rifle`s stock, " big time" as did a large majority of readers who saw the photos I posted of it. The rifle, the Master Pro, certainly performed well in the field lads and I agree with all that Tim, ( Charlie Caller) is saying about the Walther rifles LGU and LGV, in .177. Yep a thought or two is in the back of my mind as whether or not to get another and close the cabinet. I thought the trigger not as good as AA or HW but do remember, those trigger units are " incredible". I thought the stock of the Walther - bland. I thought the blueing of the Walther not as good as AA but on a par with HW. I`m no gun smith but I instantly recognised something special was going on internally with the Walthers. A walther, " tidied up" trigger wise will make a very tasty hunting rifle and I`m close to thinking that way. The HW 97K I`ve just bought, I`m finding very hard to put down, it`s incredibly accurate and hard hitting as is my Pro Sport and T Rex, - I just love the competitiveness owning such rifles,- it " brings the best out of you as a spring rifle hunter ". Here`s my Walther Master Pro .177 first hunting session. atb Mark. 2 Quote Link to post
