mark williams 7,549 Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 What a wonderful sounding/ looking weekend. Shame you didn`t like the Primos Mac, - maybe one day. I might just have another look at the 77 and because I want an old classic set up for the odd days hunting, - as you do. Might look for the old faithful again - Feinwerkbau 127 sport .22 Good on you lads. atb. 3 Quote Link to post

bigmac 97kt 13,740 Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 Dear Phil. You'd be more than welcome to visit again here at the Cottage. Lovely to meet you. Rez, get yourself over too! I can hapily drink my beer watching you lot blast my target boards to smithers! Dear Jimmy, glad to see you are home safe with Ethan It was another great honour and pleasure to welcome you to my home again mate and to meet Ethan was a joy. He's such a wonderful, bright young lad and a corking shooter in the making. When we are old buggers gumming our way through hunting stories he'll be out there making them. Hard to believe he's only eleven! Ethan, you are welcome to visit with granddad anytime little pal. You know I told you to always follow your grandad's example, he's a great man indeed! However, he's not yet fully rounded with the HW77 and hangs on to this daft notion that it is inferior to the HW97K. Oh no sir it is not. Don't you listen to that bit from him my bonnie laddie, the HW77 is the finest, most accurate spring rifle on the planet despite its age and the HW97 is just a short-arsed version of this incredible rifle. And I've got a fantastic HW97 HW77..When you absolutely, positively have to kill every mother****** rabbit in the field? MMM-M! Accept no substitutes! The Prosport is another matter. I really want this to be the rifle I think it is. I need more time with one! God bless you Jimmy and thanks for a brilliant weekend with us mate. The HW77 and HW80 .22s I now have are beyond the limits of the two best air rifles Weihrauch ever produced. If there ever was an air rifle museum, these two would be the ultimate examples of Weihrauch's place in the history of airgunning to exhibit. All the best. Simon It is the better rifle nothing beats the 97k not even the pro sport :whistling: :snack: here,s away atvbjimmy :thumbs: 1 Quote Link to post

pianoman 3,586 Posted June 13, 2016 Report Share Posted June 13, 2016 My dear friend, Jimmy. HW97 and HW77 are both incredible, supremely accurate rifles! That's why I hedged my bets and own both! Seriously? I reckon you'd love the '77 too. I cannot fault mine on the rabbits. An Air Arms Prosport would really have to prove itself among the HWs I own. All the best. Simon 1 Quote Link to post

bigmac 97kt 13,740 Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 What a wonderful sounding/ looking weekend. Shame you didn`t like the Primos Mac, - maybe one day. I might just have another look at the 77 and because I want an old classic set up for the odd days hunting, - as you do. Might look for the old faithful again - Feinwerkbau 127 sport .22 Good on you lads. atb. If im honest Mark i did not give them any time mate i can now see where your coming from with them and may be with time i could get used to them and i can see how they would be good in a hide It may be just the fact that im an old dog and cant be torte new tricks I like to shoot my way and iv done it since i was a kid MY WAY or the high way sort of thing Little hunter loved them and i can see him getting some soon but i had to make him go back to old school shooting as he was using them all the time as in the photo kneeling and he got better groups this way be-leave it or not lol Im starting to get the shakes now with my diabetic condition so may need to look at some a lot sooner than i think or just may have to give up shooting all together if it gets any worse . Simon im taking little hunter to the range this week end as his shooting is slacking some and i think a little practice is in order to bring him back into line Just wish i had your garden lol Give my love to Helen atvbjimmy :thumbs: 2 Quote Link to post
