HW Black Star performance

[WebleyEclipseII]

Ran some shots over the chrono today, it was dieseling quite bad at first and was doing over 420fps initially.

After it settled down I got this string, looks pretty consistent I think?

Pellets were RWS Superdome .22

Hi
Looks good to me. A touch above mine in .22 using hobbies (speed)
Mine likes RWS Superpoints for some reason: very accurate but I haven't got chrono values.
Had so much problems with hobbies on mine, as skirt was so tight. So it is now a .177

Hi, I'll have to try Superpoints, also want to try some JSB's through it as well. I have some Hobbies somewhere but can't find them.

I'm also looking for a .25 barrel, I know the low power is definitely going to be an issue at longer ranges but at 5 yards the numbers look fine and should be good fun.

Just need to find one!

Managed to buy an early hw45 in .22 last week in mint condition and haven't had chance to chrono yet but hope it's similar performance to yours. I'm impressed with the 13fps extreme spread. Will probably use superdomes as I do in most springers.

I was surprised as well. Makes my Co2 guns look bad
