the cobra 269 Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Hi guys recently got the hw 100 sporter in 177 I also have the airarms superlight in 22 but there is a world of diffrance in the wieght but any of u guys got the a/m custom cylinder on the hw 100 and is there a noticeable difference in the wieght looking at the stats it reduces the wieght by 1 n quarter lbs or am wrong about that cheers Quote Link to post
villaman 9,980 Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 One of the best things you can do to a HW100 ,not only lighter but more shots as well Quote Link to post
random 659 Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Mine came on the rifle so I don't even know how much lighter or how many more shots it gives 1 Quote Link to post
mark williams 7,549 Posted February 16, 2016 Report Share Posted February 16, 2016 Mmmm the new HW 110 has a non removable cylinder i believe - wonder why ? Good, competent, lads are making/ a good living "IMPROVING" the rifles presently on the market "with ease" . To all manufacturers - " WHY" - do you find it hard to run an easy business ? 1 Quote Link to post
philpot 4,930 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 I stand to be corrected but I think the A & M cylinder is 400grm lighter that the standard cylinder. To be honest I was going to get one but don't find the gauge so easy to read (old eyes) so I picked up a spare standard cylinder in order that I COULD change cylinders if needed giving me twice the shot count. I only shoot in a rested position, either bipod or trigger grip tripod so not an issue but I would think the A & M unit will benefit those shooting free standing. Phil 1 Quote Link to post

the cobra 269 Posted February 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Cheers guys al get one ordered at the weekend al let u no how things go thanks Quote Link to post
mark williams 7,549 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Ditto to Phil by way of static shooting. Each to their own but i find the conventional cylinder perfectly adequate and never have i shot 4 mags on a hunting trip. atb Quote Link to post

mark williams 7,549 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Oh , i`m sure . Some clever fettling lads on here, (not me) . atb Quote Link to post
moxy 617 Posted February 17, 2016 Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 Just as the case of the A&M cylinders. Lads had them made and tested to destruction way before A&M got their mitts on the idea. Can't knock the cylinders though. Well... When sharp and decent tooling is used to make them. Whistle whistle..!! Quote Link to post
the cobra 269 Posted February 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Mite be a daft question lads but do u need to empty the hw cylinder to take it of Quote Link to post
David.evans 5,323 Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 No , but to safe take it below 100 bar Atb Quote Link to post
