Weihrauch HW100 - Update



ok, so a bit of an update on the Weihrauch HW100... i've been using this rifle now for a few months nearly everyday, be it through work or when we're up on the farm, and i have to say - it continues to impress! it seems like most reviews are done when the product is brand new out of the box but for the HW i've decided to put it through its paces before i put together a full length review. Now this is the KT version so as you may expect going from the Daystate Ltd Air Wolf to this the shot count is a lot less than what i was used to, which i may or may have forgotten a few times and then panicked when it came of reg, much to the amusement of the guys i shoot with. Other than that, accuracy continues to impress, when twinned with the JSB Match Diabolo Exacts (or daystate sovereigns - same pellet basically! ) the rifle gives some impressive results, it's far more accurate than me that's for sure! i would say with the amount of rounds we've put through it that it's had enough time to bed in, but truth be told it never really needed any running in, we recorded a 5 fps variant during the initial testing on it's first outing, now if that isn't consistency then i don't know what is!





the plan was to change the moderator too, as lets face stock mods are often a bit questionable, but the stock Weihrauch moderator is as quite as a mouse's fart, it can be hard to tell when a shot has been fired if you're any more than 60ft or so away, so the stock mod can stay! what we have worked out though is that of a full charge you can get 4 magazines worth out of the rifle, which works out as 56 shots (roughly), so the easy thing to do here was to get 4 magazines, as they're not that expensive when compared to others, and just refill after those 4 mags, every shot will be full power and you've got a bit of wiggle room before you drop off reg, and you'll know when that happens trust me! Anyway, we'll bring you a full review soon, but not before some more "testing"! just one more thing, make sure if you're looking at getting a HW that it's stamped with the Hull Cartridge Company's stamp, as their support and warranty is second to none!
