big napper 3,565 Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Shot a few ferrals the shed roofs and realised the power was low on my hw100 so didnt take any more 40+ mtr shots got a woody and rabbit about 20 ish mtrs away, when i got home i put it on the crono and from 11.9 when i last tested it the power is now 10.6. Dont know how or why that would happen. 6 Quote Link to post
si brown 8,486 Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 10.5 is pretty much what hw send stuff out at now bn... but if its dropped from 11.9 to 10.6 id say its the hammer that needs sorting, a de grease and re lube wont do any harm and theres a tiny grub screw in the side of the hammer that backs off from use if its not tight! its not a hard job to do if you or one of your mates are up to it... hull cartridge will sort it but you'll be without it for a bit but you'll keep it in guarantee. Jimmys runs at 10.5 consistently but hes zeroed too that and it works fine for him! like the binos, I keep meaning to get some me eyes are getting worse the older I get 1 Quote Link to post
big napper 3,565 Posted September 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Cheers si, you could be right about the hammer as iv spoke to a mate this morning (he's a gunsmith) and he said the same as you so i think il ask him to sort it out, and the binos come in really handy for scanning big fields as my eyes arnt that clever now either.

villaman 9,983 Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Nice again Try cleaning the barrel with a pull through ,some barrels need cleaning more than others . I thought my HW110 was down in power at first when I got it and after shooting a few tins of pellets through it , but cleaned the barrel and came back up to 11. 7 from 10.7 2 Quote Link to post
big napper 3,565 Posted September 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Cheers vm, when i got this from new only about 5 months ago it was doing 11.8 straight out of the box so i thought it would go up in power not down, i cleaned the barrel before i first used it and it has had a good few thousand pellets through it Quote Link to post
big napper 3,565 Posted September 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 What about adjusting the reg is that an option do you think Quote Link to post

Rimfireboy! 1,463 Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 Good shooting. As above, I’d give it a pull through first, see if that sorts it. A dirty barrel will make a difference. 1 Quote Link to post
