There a mint break barrel, knew you’d like it if you like the 97.. the weight saving makes for a nice change!

my mates got one and he’s well happy with it as standard

I’d say the 97 with the Vortek tune as no twang (95 as very slight twang) and the 97 cocks smoother, accuracy wise I reckon about the same, but 97 is.22, 95 is .177. I was impressed how it bowled the squizzers over with the .177 AA Fields!
 

What I have noticed is that every now and again it diesels the 95, maybe it’s where it is new! but bloody hell the pellet left like a rocket and smoked!
 

I left all my PCPs at home today and took the 97 & 95 out, I think I will invest in some studs & sling for both rifles, more so the 97, it gets quite heavy after a while.

It’s a 4.5mm bit you need for drilling the sling studs
the twang is purely because the ends of the springs need re profiling they get distorted cos they cut them with a grinder, easy fix if you’ve got a dremil and the diesiling should calm down the more you put through it
