    update

    Been shooting the windfall plums in my garden today at 40 yards. That 95K in girlie caliber hits em hard and is deadly accurate; I think I'm back in lurve with.177.

    The 57 is so smooth gentle and quiet but I seem to have lost the ability to shoot it accurately. ... is that common after shooting 'the other caliber' ? I feel it may be the different balance.

    Well as a result I will take the 95K rabbiting tomorrow and have loaned the 57 to a friend who recently had his own guns stolen; it will be interesting to see how he gets on.

    Nice review on 2 of my fave HW,s. MY 95 is a Sandwell Feild Sports Banshee 2 in .177 in a GINB stock with nice brass triguer gaurd, the 57 is in .22 and was bought 2nd hand. The 57 was awful at first but after passing it to my good friend Will Gerke aka Welsh Willi it returnded has a gun transformerd. Accurate and powerfull 11.2 with air arms domes, the 95 dose 11.3 with the same pellets- enjoy

    Out lamping on Thursday from the Disco. James drove with my 57, me pax with 95. Very few bunnies about but I had two and James got one too. He hadn't had a chance to practice at all with 57 so his shot goes to show the gun is accurate enough..... Oh dear that means it's me then 😩

    I bought a very little used HW57 .22 it took about a tin of pellets to settle down and stop dieseling and with a 1 piece mount and a Zero Option 3-9x50 scope i can hit knockover targets at 50 yards thought not 10 / 10 as i don't profess to being a great shot but its a cracking rifle for the money being nice a light with good accuracy i'm very pleased with it
