HW99s Tuning
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июн 2024
- So the TX200 HC I traded my HW80 in for is tuned by Phil Crampton at Ratworks. This got me thinking, how much difference can a tuning a rifle really make? Also will I, as a pretty average shooter, notice the difference?
To answer this question I have put my hand in my pocket, forked out the cash and sacrificed my 99s. It is now at Ratworks for the full treatment.
Follow up video will be in 6-8 weeks (work and life permiting!)
Hope you enjoy!

My stock HW99 was putting out 10.2. not a bad rifle, not as accurate as my other Weihrauchs but still a quality bit of kit.
I'll be aiming to add a Vortek Kit when available and see if a gentle fettle ups the power and removes the slight spring resonance
@@keith6930 Please drop a comment in on this thread when you get it done. It would be great to hear about your results.
Your 99 will come back absolutely cock on, because Ratworks are watching this and they’ll ensure it does. “It’ll be the rats bollocks.”
@@gooderspitman8052 It is going to be interesting to see the results.
Really good video (as always) looking forward to the outcome. And P L E A S E after the outcome of this video keep your videos future ones coming mate. They’re wonderful ‘down to earth’ reviews 🙏
@@nickwebb9290 I’ll do my best Nick. Unfortunately my proper job and life often get in the way of my little RUclips hobby!
Great video, the 99 is a good gun and great value.
Keep that dust from your bag away from your gun as it will act like grinding paste when mixed with oil 😮
@@MRD765 yep I need a new bag! Thanks for watching. 👍
Looking forward to the conclusion, I've subscribed to make sure I don't miss it 👍👍
@@steve4697 Thanks for the sub Steve 👍
Looking forward to the second instalment after the tune. Also can’t wait for the TX video. Cheers
@@edwardmiles3921 I will try and get the TX Video done this week.
Looking forward to seeing the results of your tuned gun. Great video. Take care.
@@paultowns9880 Thanks Paul. 👍
Looking forward to seeing the results of the tune. I’ve got an HW95K and I’m wondering whether it’s worth it or not with Rat works
@@Draknareth I am looking forward to getting the rifle back and doing the video. Will be a while though.
Good interesting vid. Not the best tuner for springers. But will be interesting to see the results. Been looking for the 80 on Leicestershire air guns. But no luck yet🤞🏻
@@kevsmith972 it’s there Kev, unless it sold today. I was in the shop yesterday and it was still out on the racks.
@@gardenguns will have to ring them. I’ve only looked on their site because I’m to far away. Did you say it was ratwork tuned?
And do you remember the price on it? Thanks for your time and videos 👍
@@kevsmith972 Thank you for watching. It makes it worth putting the time in knowing that they are of interest. No the 80 is not tuned as far as I am aware. However it has one of the nicest, laziest firing cycles I have come across. I thought it was tuned when it first came into the shop. Not sure on the price. Give Phil and Tracie a call.
If you were getting 11ft pounds with superdomes why are you testing with jsb,s and expecting the same results ?
@@alanroberts8280 I don’t have any superdomes left and this was the only day I could do the video and get my rifle to Ratworks. I was expecting 10.5 up.
Me personally would have kept and tuned the 80 and dumped the 99 I've had two both been awful and I do love a hw.
@@TheSnafflepup Thanks for the sub! I am looking forward to getting the rifle back and seeing if my agricultural approach can notice the difference.
@@TheSnafflepup to de fair I am waiting for a Venom tuned 80 to turn up in my life! I traded my original 99s for the 80 and missed it so much I bought this 99s second hand. It is the current model though. It will be interesting to see how it shoots when I get it back.
@gardenguns I had a venom tuned hw80 it was my original hw80 from 1985 I sold then was given back in bits 20 years later after my Dad died I had it venomed but sadly sold it years later to buy a theoben rapid 12.
Probably one of the dumbest things I ever did.
Why did u not find the best pellet to suit the gun and do ur test from there it was a waste uf time
@@barriemercer5102 I had run out of the rifles favourite pellet. So I used a good Allrounder and one it shoots well with. To be honest I also felt that it would be better to use a pellet that it shot ok with rather than one it shoots brilliantly in the hope that any improvement in performance would be more obvious and easy to show.
RATworks 'superior tune'. HA! HA! what a load of bollocks - it'll be better but they will do the same job as any of us could. New spring, guides, and top hat with some molly for lube.... PLEASE send it off to a proper 99 tuner who actually knows what they are doing... THEN you will know what a superior tune is. I've got an SFS Imp MKII and that is a 'superior tune'... If you don't want to wait for 6 months for an Imp MKII then there's a guy north of Swansea who is hands down the BEST tuner, and he'll sort your 99!! 😉
@@greylag8630 l would love to get my hands on an Imp! I am sorry that you are not a fan of Ratworks. They are my local tuning company and I try and support local businesses. A fair few of my PCP's have been to Phil. I have never had any issue with the work he has done and the results I have had from it. The TX200 I have has been through him and it is sweet. So I am looking forward to seeing what the results are on the 99. I haven't had the fortune to try any other 99's from the other tuners but would love the oppurtunity to do a direct comparison.
Try Nick Simmons he’s local to us
@@gardenguns appreciate you supporting local business - good on you. Maybe if you get hold of another 99 you could get that tuned by a ‘proper’ tuner and see the difference beaten the RW99 and a ‘proper’ tuner.
Keep the reviews going, always good to watch. 😎👍
@@greylag8630 cheers! One day an imp will come into Leicestershire Airguns and that already has my name on it! Thanks for the support on the channel. I really appreciate it.
@@andybrown8293 already with Phil, Andy.
