My .30 Hatsan is not what I expected for accuracy. Does anyone have firsthand knowledge of the LW in .30? Yes, I know that I have to machine it.

Pretty fast twist at 16".... For most pellets and slugs I think you would be better off with a TJ's 26" twist.... The LW is pretty large bore as well, at 0.298" land 0.306" groove.... that's why Tim @ Mac1 gave up on them.... I know my early one is .308 cal.... If you are shooting slugs, it might be OK, if you size them correctly....

Roy at mountain air uses the TJ barrels with 1:26 twist rate. I'm very happy with the barrel I got from him.
