Weihrauch HW97 Blackline

Golly mate, been meaning to catch up on your new toy. 55m unsorted pellets... Heck that's a fantastic group!

Nah it will go tighter than that.
I'm going to back the trigger off a tad. I rezeroed it to 32m.
The gun is capable of tighter groups. I had 4 tighter than that then I pulled one, and a three tighter than that till stuffed a shot up.
That was the most as I good as I got, group wise,but it's proven it will pull tighter.

I don't think it's as tight as it should be.
Might lighten the trigger a tad.
Turns out it's an inch and a half circle on that target.

Nice shooting Kruza!

Beautiful still day.
Put around 70 pellets through gun.
Started with 5.54mm head. Shot around 30 at various weights.
Figured a tighter head would lay a better layer of lead in the barrel.
At ten meters all touching.
Tightened it after that. Dave at airguns nz had warned the 97 had a habit of initially the screw behind trigger, holding the stock to cylinder coming lose during break in, and to tighten it after 20 shots or so.
He was right, it was loose as well as one scope screw and a small tweek on the right hand barrel screw.
26m zeroed it. Started shooting spinners as are breaking in.
Around 50 shots went out to 35m and once had drop sorted plinked away spinners.
The action is smooth and easy. My arm never got tired cocking.
I cock with my right arm and load with my left hand.
The loading port is clear and spacious and I had zero issues loading.
Auto saftey is a massive pain in arse.
At least you can look at it while you have the rifle shouldered before cursing it.
It is smooth and crisp. Technique will solve leaving it on.
It does have a quick fire cycle. Not hold sensitive.
Twang has quietened down quite a bit.
Gun isn't that loud.
I'm really happy with it this far.
No chrono as haven't got one yet.
