A pair of feinwerkbau's and a unlinked question

[dutchjozef 111]

Its been quite a while since my last post.

I just had nothing to say.....

I'll start with a question:

Important for my question: ive been shooting all my life, springer, rim and center.

Amongst others, I have 2 hw97 rifles:

A vortek 177  with Sheffield 1000 stock, 12 fpe

And a vortek .22 full power with wooden sporter stock

Recently I bought a 177 walther lgv master pro sub 12 joules. I had put match rifle sights on this rifle as soon as I got it. And I changed the original trigger for a "match" one.

With the match rifle sights, it shoots perfectly: at 17 meters a 5 shot "one hole" group is possible (benched), by me and my wife. But scoped.......it shoots like a dog.

Ive looked at the usual suspects:

Scope (changed), stock screws, scope screws, internals, mount screws, dirty/clean bore.

I cannot put my finger on why it shoots horrible with a scope.

I can shoot decently, on a good day at 50 meters, thumbnail groups are possible with both the 97's. But I cant shoot acceptable groups at 17 meters with the lgv.

If anyone has an idea as for why  I cant shoot the rifle scoped, I'd be thankfull!!

 

And now to the "nicer" parts of this post: my newly imported feinwerkbau's 601 and 603(last one made). See picture.

Ive made a hamster for the 601 in my workshop.

How do they shoot? -They shoot as they look!

Thank you but not going that route until the back end of 2020 as there are a number of new bell target venues to be sorted next year and I am not going to get a gun for the job until I know it has all been sorted.
