Hello Per! Good to hear from you, I hope you and your family keep safe!
Are you able to take some trips out these days?
I haven't tried the new Walthers and Feinwerkbaus, so for me it would have to be:
Sub-12 ft.lbs.: HW 95K with open sights in .177" calibre.
FAC: HW 80K with open sights in .22" calibre.
All the better if they were tuned by Venom Arms / V-Mach.
Hi Per,
Fantastic to see you on.
If your health issues indeed were to allow you to visit us at a Boinger Bash, along with evert, it would truly be fantastic.
In the meantime, if you two were able to get together over in Norway; brilliant.
Some lovely rifles you have there.
All the very best.
THE BOINGER BASH AT QUIGLEY HOLLOW. MAKING GREAT MEMORIES SINCE 15th JUNE, 2013.
NEXT EVENT :- May 17/18, 2025.........BOING!!
Your springer collection is truly something special, with Pauls work bringing out what is is probably optimal performance from each model!
The power levels of your HW's correspond quite well with what I have found to be where the different models really do their best, and from seeing your guns, I know Pauls work is second to none!
The Longbow might be closest to my definition of perfect, just right in every aspect: correct size, great barrel lockup, good adjustable trigger, great barrel, good stock design, one piece cocking linkage and close to perfect stroke length...
But the Longbows are hard to find over here!
My Theoben Fenman has held zero for ten years and just delivers. It could be improved with an HW Trigger and an Omega's scope improved stock. In walnut with some chequering.
My other reach for rifle is a FWB Sport and that just needs a HW Trigger.
I have a Steve Pope fully tuned HW95 and its still flighty due to being FWB Sport weight. Plus still doesn't have a scope orientated stock.
Gasram is a superior power plant than a spring. Keep to farmyard ranges then most can be made to deliver; it only goes to pot when more range is tried. Light weight, spring, and long range, with a break barrel will always have one element that lets the team down. But at least they are a true sporting weight and not some brick.

Sounds great evert, it's been some time since I saw him last time. We've shared some sms and e-mails since then,
but sure it would be great to meet him in real too . I'll look forward to it!
I try to give the whole collection a workout now, but it takes time now in the hot weather. Too hot some days now.
Have made some new shooting lanes to keep away from the sun. The biggest problem now is, "where's that cat?"
I never know where he is sleeping or hunting, his life is outdoor the whole summer, visiting just to show up what he's hunted.
He's an eminent hunter and keep control of rats and mice .
