[he tunes thousands of Weihrauchs then tests them on a Swiss accuracy device used for Olympic shooting events] Following this revelation then set about fixing the problem before putting it on sale in his shop. {Check out gunroom Aus, tuning the HW97K, Ian McIntosh} what this guy doesn't know about Weihrauchs.... 1 Quote Link to post
Robo9 152 Posted June 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2018 Further to this Ian does pellet tests on all Weihrauchs that he sells, even new non tuned guns get shot over a measured no. of shots to establish preferred ammo for that gun, tuned guns get extensive testing of pellet types, so he provides a tuning service and a pellet test service for tightest groups!.... how many airgun tuners do that! In performing the above tests the customer is given a list of the rifles favorite top three pellets, and with HW barrels with successive serial numbers the top three are often different! Ian is also keen to help diy tuners like myself and has phoned me here in New Zealand twice, from Australia! to personally answer a couple of tuning queries before the Blue Demon transformation! !
