    I've just purchased a new 95k which I requested to be tuned straight away and it fires sweet as a nut. I have also taken my 5 week old 97kt to be tuned as well.

    On reflection, I would have liked to have got an older 95 and had that tuned because the outlay for a new rifle just to be stripped and tuned is a lot more than a decent second hand rifle.

    I was undecided between a new 35 and 95, but from what I have been reading the 35 is actually a decent rifle.

    Tuning the 35 makes sense, so long as its very accurate. Tuning an inaccurate rifle just makes an inaccurate rifle thats nicer to cock and shoot!
    So if the 35 has good barrel lockup, a good barrel and you like it I'd say go for it.

    I was in the same position as the O.P. I fitted a B&C kit to my HW35, and then bought an HW95K and fitted a B&C kit to that as well. I now have two really sweet shooting guns, and I'm very happy with both of them.

    Cheers to all for the replies really do appreciate !!!!

    Sounds as though everyone is unanimous and if I'm not going to see any real difference in accuracy or weight advantages seems like a complete no brainer so looks like the old 35 is going to get tune up
    Shame the owner can't afford one for himself as well

    Thanks to all !!!!
