JayB0 125 Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 Today's the day that I finally own a proper rifle, as bigmac97kt put it this morning Finally took his advice on what to get and what's good out there, and after deciding I wasn't the biggest fan of pcp and enjoyed a springer more, it was just by luck the local range and 2 pretty much brand new hw97s in, it was between a sporter stock or a KT and we both loved the stock on the KT so it was decided that it was mine. So picked it up today and put the Hawke vantage on and now to get it polished which I'm sure Jimmy will gladly help with just to get it zeroed and ready for going out shooting. 4 Quote Link to post

shaaark 10,780 Posted September 29, 2021 Report Share Posted September 29, 2021 Got rid of my 97kt in .20, a few years ago, after an extended run of shoulder trouble. Regretted it as soon as it was gone! Can see a nice christmas present to myself this year. 1 Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,553 Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 Hi Jason, that same big fella spent a good while telling me how good the 97 was too. I`ve been a .177 man for a good 10 years now and Simon ( Pianoman ) was selling his .177 cal 97 which I duly bought. Not for one second have I ever regretted buying that gun, they are class and thanks for nagging me Jimmy. Best of luck with your 97 Jason - you'll love that rifle. Quote Link to post
