Break barrel springers - what to shortlist?

[charliemow13]

Thanks folks, definitely need to get myself out and try a few by the sounds of it. The more the better!

Cheers for the offer of a look at your HW95 Ian. Might take you up on that in the not too distant future.

IMHO the only break barrel springers you will ever need in this country are the HW 99s in 22 and the Walther LGV in 177.

I have been buying and selling springers for the last twenty-five years trying to find a couple of keepers.


I love all Springer's -even the bad ones - but these are the two I find myself left with.

I have a two thirds length barrel weight/shroud on the 99s, but neither of my guns has been tuned.

I have a short stroked 98 with the tbt kit in it. The best break barrel I have shot. As accurate as my under levers

To throw another option into the mix there is also the often overlooked HW35.You can get a new walnut export for similar money around £350.
IMO the best looking off the shelf break barrel out of what is available these days and shoots well too.

HW80 with an HW98 barrel.

Looks better flush with the cylinder.

99 / 95 / 98 / lgv
