Glad this gun works for you. I have the original HW40 from Weihrauch and I am quite satisfied with it. Indeed it is pricier but it is yet another generations gun from Weihrauch. Concerning ammo you might want to try the Excite Econ II pellets from H&N if available. They are in the low price range but my HW40 loves them. Using those, I've once managed a one hole group with about 7 shots at 15 meters (though rested and with a small scope) but after what I have heard about the Beeman P17, chances are that it is just as capable. This gun needs somewhat lighter pellets such as the H&Ns mentioned above that come with 7,41 grains as it generates a mere 2,5 foot pounds muzzle energy, approximately. Those are flatheads and I have to say that flatheads are my personal favorites as well. If the Excite Econ IIs or some other flatheads deliver good accuracy, the fun with this gun is endless!
I love mine. Had it for about 10 years. I actually ran the combat pistol qualification course with it within the allotted time. (barely) 25 yards to five yards. A lot of work! (my own backyard)

That's pretty impressive! While accurate, this isn't the quickest pistol to reload.
@@Electroniclizard yeah things got a tad athletic.
