Title: Walther Terrus WS
Post by: triggerfest on September 25, 2019, 05:00:22 PM
So I couldn't get used to the ergonomics of my HW50s and was killing my scope as well. Time for something new, so sold the 50 and took a ride to Krale last Saturday for picking up this very nice Walther Terrus WS in .177.

I did some extended shooting with the Terrus last Sunday, and the quick pro's and con's are...

Pro's
Has a very nice shot cycle, close to the experience of a gasram, like if the Terrus is tuned out of the box...
I like really like the trigger blade, it is a wide blade and feels very nice, also the trigger is light and predictable…
The grip is great, with a good lenght of pull (the LOP of the 50 is just too long imho)…
Balance is good and is just in front of the trigger...
Although I am using a scope, the open sights are made from steel and very usable…
The Terrus has a nice gimmick, a standard 1/2 unf thread at the end of the barrel...

Con's
So far, I can only say the total lenght (44.09 inch), which is about 2 inches longer then I prefer…

Overall, the fit and finish are great and are giving a very, very solid feel.

I have tried various pellets, including our popular JSB Exact 4.52, but the best results for now are with the RWS Superpoints.

Oh, by the way, I think I just bought the last version in wood stock, but they still have the synthetic stock version in stock. And might be a good alternative if you want to buy an affordable, yet very accurate Walther !

How about some groups and velocity numbers from this new rifle? ;D

Yes, what do the groups look like and what is the power level?

Glad you like your new Walther Terrus.  Good luck with it.
Moved your thread to the Airgun Review gate.

The power level is around 12fpe, since I have bought the Terrus (and initially the 50) for shooting HFT competition on UK rules.

Friday I will be at the club and will take some pictures of groups  :D
