I’ll be been working a lot of hours , I got caught up on all my bills and projects so figured . You only live once . https://www.airgunforum.ca/store/product_info.php?products_id=243
I’ve been eying this rifle for a few years and now I’ve got one on the way. What really got me was the recently acquired HW35 . The quality of the Weihrauch’s is something to behold if you haven’t held one . I’ll be tuning this one to 12fpe using 10gn JSB pellets . I didn’t have a dedicated .177 PCP and the price was right

Congratulations,it's a beauty,high quality and known as very accurate.

One of the first Airgun reviews I ever watched was Giles review of the HW110, it gave me the impression of absolute quality. I still watch that video from time to time. I generally live in ‘price point PCP’ world, but if I ever have the chance to get a top tier gun, a Weihrauch will be on the short list. I look forward to hearing about your new gun.

I've always liked the look of the HW, congrats on the purchase!

I should mention , the prices are in CAD . For you folks south of the border it would be one heck of a deal and Dan has other models in stock. It’s another option to Krale.

Congrats!
There are some nice guns there.
I didn't know you could still buy a CZ200S COLOUR, thought that well dried up years ago.

The HW 100 was the first true production PCP, and they got it right from the get go. A very fine AG indeed.

In fact, Allen Z. the famed Rapid tuner, said that the Styer and HW-100 were the only two AG's he would tune. Now that says a LOT!!!

Huge Contrats. (Your Kill'n me)!

A most excellent choice for a PCP!

Yikes- just looked up the CZ200... a .22 CZ-barreled PCP for ONLY ~ $402 USD? That's the best price I've ever seen, anywhere, on a CZ200- and it would make a fine companion to my CZ634

Solid choice picking a proven platform.

The only thing that remains is how to configure it to suit yourself and your shooting style.

Congrats man, I am sure that you will be tickled with it.

I can’t even begin to tell you how much I’ve bought from Dan . Whatever you do , don’t look at the pellet prices , just not worth buying .

Congratulations. Weihrauch truly makes high quality air rifles. I don't have one of their PCPs, but I do have a HW springer. I have looked at that their PCPs........and have had to use great restraint. Hope you enjoy it!

Here she is . I took the scope off the HW97 to see how it performed and right out of the box it is shooting spot on. Ran a few magazines over the chrony to see where it was shooting . 905 to 910 fps with 10gr. Jsb pellets . Just as advertised at 18FPE . I did readjust the hammer spring to get the velocity down closer to 12fpe , I finding that just about perfect in .177. The efficiency is ..... how do you say real crappy . I’m going to have to find a cure for that . One thing I should mention is the trigger , this has got to be the best trigger I’ve EVER touched.
If anyone has any tricks for squeezing some efficiency out of the HW100 , please let me know .

WOW! what a beauty!
CONGRATS!

As far as efficiency, are you talking "shot count"?

Hobbyman2007 · « **Reply #13 on:** December 03, 2019, 07:10:26 PM »

Ya I’m talking shot count . I haven’t run an entire string ,but it does the look good from the few mags ive put through it .

Dairyboy · « **Reply #14 on:** December 03, 2019, 07:53:02 PM »

That's gorgeous gun! Even with the HST backed down the efficiency is poor?

canadian_shooter · « **Reply #15 on:** December 03, 2019, 08:14:51 PM »

That is a beautiful rifle! Congrats, also I may be a little bit jealous.

RDB · « **Reply #16 on:** December 03, 2019, 08:46:03 PM »

Very nice looking rifle! Not familiar with that particular rifle. But if not regulated, stepping down in transfer port size would probably help quite a bit. And if still a hog with hammer bounce present, look a building a ssg and lightening the hammer.

Hobbyman2007 · « **Reply #17 on:** December 03, 2019, 08:50:30 PM »

Ok so with a little bit of shooting . It doesn’t appear to be as bad as I thought . I got 6 x 14 shot mags on the regulator . I will however need to do some fine tuning as the velocity started to climb off the reg . Seeing as this is the carbine version , the air volume is quite small . I haven’t crunched any numbers but it’s definitely better than originally thought .

RDB · « **Reply #18 on:** December 03, 2019, 09:17:00 PM »

That's just letting you know you can drop the reg pressure down for better efficiency.

What a beauty. Congratulations on the new gun.
