villaman 9,979 Posted May 3, 2019 Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 Very busy at work again , but ended up taking the after noon off to change over stocks on my two HW97’s .177 lived in a synthetic stock for it life of 5 years and .22 started of in a beech standard stock , then a few years ago I installed it into a CS500, which is lovely So today I swapped stocks around , after refurbishing the original beech stock . Refurbished stock went back on .22 and CS500 back on .177 . I must say the .177 shoots far better now in a wooden stock , should of done it years ago first three photos .22 and then .177 5 1 Quote Link to post
