HW 97 Range Report
Posted: Mon Jul 12, 2021 3:25 pm
What a nice rifle. I waited along time procrastinating on going PCP vs staying with another spring gun. I really like this rifle. I only have 2 and thats all I plan on getting. This one in my opinion is a Rolls Royce. The stock is really nice and I like the design work on the forend. It does provide a nice gripping feel when shooting off hand. On top is a Hawke 3x9x40 AO scope. I bought the complete setup from Airguns of Arizona. They are great people to deal with and always spend as much time as you need on the phone. When the gun arrived I unboxed it checked the scope screws and made a small adjustment to the scope. I also ran a patch through the bore. I sighted it in and shot three targets with three different pellets. First picture is the gun
Target #3 is my best one and I blew the 8th shot its the furthest one to the right These targets I got on Amazon. They fit right into the dueling animal target stand that I recently posted in the target review I did. I really like that target and would highly recommend it for shooting at. Thanks to NCG for all her help and advice. I will post more targets as I shoot more. I have a couple other brands but right now its hard to get certain pellets. Im about out of the heavy JSB and have a few tins of the lighter ones. Shoot those airguns. Hope you enjoy this report.
Next picture is the first target I shot. Im not as good as NCG and dont know if I could ever shoot 1/4 inch groups like she does. It really takes some serious concentration to shoot those kind of groups. My groups were 8 shot 20 yards.
Target #2 is with another brand of pellet. I just didnt do my part on about 3 of these shots I think I can shoot a better group with that pellet.Target #3 is my best one and I blew the 8th shot its the furthest one to the right These targets I got on Amazon.
