    Thanks, Gents. I’d love a 95 but new out of my price range but I’ll see if one turns up in the sales section

    Kirlees guns in Huddersfield have got a deal on at the moment brand new hw95k Luxus stock but the 16" barrel weight version which in my opinion is the best for £250 they only have .177 left but at least they don't only have .22 left

    If this is of interest Steve.

    I have a mint 95K in .22 sat in my wardrobe which is very much loved but very much undershot. I am not a million miles from you and you are welcome to borrow/shoot/spend some time with it and come to your own conclusion.

    If you like it we can come to some sort of arrangement, which won't involve pulling your arms and legs off btw, if it's not for you then at least you can strike it off your shopping list.

    Went over to Kirklees Guns this morning and picked up a brand new Hw95 for £250. Yes it’s the longer barrel version with the barrel weight instead of a moderator but I’m happy

    From what I’ve read from a few sources, the extra weight from the longer barrel and muzzle weight really does help with muzzle flip.

    I've got one of the older barrel weight versions...a truly fantastic rifle … as accurate as any top end gun as well, the 95 barrels are one of the best HW produce.

    You wont be disappointed at all

    Cheers Steve

    I got the scope mounted yesterday and let off a few rounds into the phone book. Straight through no messing, although it’s only about a half inch thick these days. It’s a little twangy but I suspect it’ll settle down through use. Nice rifle though, trigger is crisp and predictable
