Today I picked up a HW30S in near mint condition for $150. After rushing it home I got a few hundred pellets through it and I don't know if my RWS 34 will see much action anymore!
I do have a question. She shoots like a dream with CHP, ragged holes at 20 yards. I completely took her down and gave her a properer lube job but having a lathe the bug started to bite on building a top hat and new guide from delrin. I did not do it though and my question is should I just let this marvel be or tune it up? Kinda thinking leave it alone! Would like to hear from some HW30 owners that just run them stock and if they tuned was there much improvement? Thanks

Good score. Congratulations.

Leave it alone if it is behaving properly. Enjoy shooting it until it really needs a tune. Great score, BTW.
-
Nice deal. Tune will only make it better
needs pictures though ;D

Will have them up in about a week, neighbor took camera to Disney World! The best part was the scope, it's a 3x9x40 Leupold Mark 4 Mil-dot. The guy said it was broke and indeed it is but Leupold is lifetime warranty, already called them and it's going in the mail tomorrow:D

What a deal!
Did you kiss the pawn shop clerk?
-
Double deal
I never get that lucky

Nah, ain't much into beards...

I do have a question though. It has a Gold trigger and a muzzle brake and no sights. Does not look like the current one on Pyramyd Air sight? Any ideas, were they configured differently? Thanks

Congrats on a great find! Now you know what all the fuss is about on those little rifles ;)
Are you sure that Leupold isn't a Chinese knock-off? Those are $800 scopes, you know.

Great find on that HW30, and with a scope to boot. I'm sure you'll quickly get your money's worth in no time! Have fun breaking it in. Its a perfect plinker and mid-range target shooter. ;D

Great Score!
Tune it! But get a better spring..the stock ones settle out big time and will leave you shootin in the 550-575 fps range.....Vortek will get ya into the 660-680- in .177 .
Enjoy & Happy Shootin!

Yeah, that scope would be the real score if it truly is a mark 4.
Congrats!
Edit: I need to take a day and hit every pawn shop in the area. Always hear about folks finding good deals on air guns..

I called Leupold and gave them the serial # of the bottom and they said no problem! I have a 300 Win Mag smoke pole that's begging for this optic and while sending it in, I am paying $165 to upgrade to the TRM reticle instead of the mildot. The Pawn shop owner really boogered up the mounts, someone red Loctited them is why the scope was still on the gun. I had to use a Dremel to cut the mounts away:D

That Leopold knock off is a good scope I have it on my 34 Panther and it's a tack driver. That's a great pwan shop find every once in awhile I check mine and no luck.Here are some 53 yard groups yesterday with the china leopold scope on my 34P.
