Webley viscount deluxe

[MDriskill]

That is absolutely beautiful! Just my humble opinion, the Tracker/Viscount series are the best-styled rifles Webley ever made - the long barrel being the more elegant of the two - and that is a stunning example.

I actually owned a .22 walnut Viscount briefly, and it is one of the rifles I most regret selling. I also parted with a third-series Tracker which I would gladly trade for the "Barnett Spitfire" (Americanized early Tracker) I now have.

I too have always been mystified these guns were not more popular. Yeah they don't push the power limit, but in return they are slender, light, and well-balanced. And I don't even mind the trigger...a well broken-in and lubed Vulcan-family trigger is not at all inappropriate for a sporting rifle (yeah I know I'm a team of one on that point, LOL).

That's lovely Dave, who did the blacking?

Webley triggers, being direct, can be awful if the gun is oversprung. With a bit of work they're nice crisp single stage triggers.

I reblacked it myself, and over springing a tracker/viscount is the worst thing you can do to them, they shoot awfull and they can be easily damaged, a good tip to increase power and consistency slightly is to keep the factory main spring but ditch the original ptfe main piston seal and fit the parachute type seal from the TX200 it works a treat.

Beautiful work! Never seen a Viscount, but can imagine that it feels like something between a Tracker and an Osprey?

How do you fit the AA seal? Do you machine the piston or alter the seal?

To fit the TX200 seal you just remove the white webley ptfe main seal, but importantly leave the black rubber buffer seal in place and simply pop the TX seal in place its as simple as that, the Diana 24 seal will also do the same job.

You should see how he gets the glass cover off a HW100 cylinder. Witchcraft I tells ya! To the ducking stool .

Nope. I'm another. There's not much wrong with the Webley trigger as far as I'm concerned. Adjust the pulloff right down and it's fine. Yes, a Rekord is better, but I can shoot a good Webley as well as a good Weihrauch.

The trigger on this one i have is not bad, its light and predictable obviously not as good as the record then what is, overall this viscount shoots well it has good accuracy and decent power around 10ftb overall its a joy to shoot and own.
