when you first got your guns was power a bit on the low side ive heard about the grease they pack in the hammer so its slower and do they creep up in time when had a few tins of pellets through them

[John Stott 202]

Mine came from Airguns Direct. They issue a certificate, 11.5 and 785 fps average straight off. I chronoed it last week after 500 and its around the same using JSB or AA at 8.4gn.

[trigger2 3,387]

ive fired a few tins of pellets through mine i am using jsb exacts and its been put on a chrono and its 11.4

[smithie 2,444]

they do creep up and you need to keep an eye on them

[John Stott 202]

Chrono it regularly. Good practice and good discipline. A bit like rifle cleaning, it pays dividends in the end. Also remember even though they are the same product, each rifle will have its own quirks.

is it worth seeing how much grease is inside and mopping some out

Did you clean the barrel before you fired the first pellet ?

i didnt mate

Try that first ,most HW barrels from new have a lot of grease in them

[mark williams 7,568]

11-6 ft/lbs using .177 AA fields, with 5p sized groups out to 40 yds at the indoor range with ease.

My rifle is two years old and never misses a beat (touch wood).

The .22 cal` HW KS averages 11.4 ft/lbs using AA fields and just as accurate but my gut feeling is that my KT is a touch more powerful as it is used much more.

ok will try that then chrono again be wkend now when i can try it

[villaman 9,982]

The cold will affect the power as well .

put a hair dryer over the trigger and hammer assembly and take off the back plate ,then tip it up so the but is on the bench , that way you will get rid of the grease

[Bunnyblatter 1,012]

They do drop in power slightly in the colder months as the grease seems to get thicker in cold weather.

I'd get it to a reputable RFD and get it removed and lightly oiled.
