    A good honest review, can't beat a springer. Thanks.

    There is something that mentally comes into play when using springers in my opinion, since you only get one shot and the reloading generally takes a lot more longer than magfed PCPs, using one for many years made me a much better shot.

      To be honest you generally only get 1 shot at any pest anyway if u miss there gone nice to have a pcp for the reload speed for a follow up shot if needed but I have both pcp and spring and I prefer to hunt with my springers it feels more raw and more rewarding 💯👌

    Nice vid mate, lovely bit of kit. I also like that you've gone for a smaller scope, far too many people stick huge great 50 or even 56s on springers that they're shooting at 30m and it just overbalances the gun to no good effect. Looks daft too.

    Hello My friend,
    It's great to see you again. The last time I messaged you, you were having trouble with your FAC licence, so I hope all that's worked out.
    Funnily enough, I've just bought a very nearly brand new model of what have there.
    A great work colleague bought it and found his heart wasn't in shooting. I was flattered he gave me first refusal, so I made sure he didn't lose out financially.
    Mine is in .22 calibre. With the weather, I've had mine a good bit too, before throwing a pellet down the barrel.
    Only this last week, I began at twenty yards, thirty, then forty yards. I zero my air rifles at forty yards, then learn my holdovers/unders at the other distances, producing a list so I wouldn't forget.
    At twenty and thirty yards, it was producing great, tight groups. I was aiming at a five pence piece sized circle. I struggled at forty yards with tight groups. However, schoolboy error!
    I checked the fore end screw which was loose. On the 99s, it's just one screw, underneath and not the normal two screws either side.
    When I try again, I'm sure I'll get better groupings at forty yards.
    I agree with you, my friend, It's a great spring air rifle, quality parts, and engineering. You don't normally go wrong with German stuff.
    Yes, mate, it's a cracker. It's not a pcp. They're totally different units. You've a lot more hassle with a springer being silent and reloading is much more hassle than moving your magazine round to your next shot with the cocking lever. That said, you're not tied to a dive bottle.
    Yes, mate. It's nice and lightweight, accurate, handy, and overall, a beautiful piece of kit. They're lovely to own, great value for money and not breaking the bank.
    Best wishes, my friend.
    Take care,Ian.
    Ps. It's up to each individual how they go about their shooting journey. Personally, if you shoot a springer, regular, it keeps your feet on the ground and your marksmanship principles in your mind. Pcp's are great, no question. Though I think they make me, personally lazy, and give me a false sense of security.

    Cracking video. I'm an old codger and only got back into air guns a few years ago, deciding to go with a springer first, the HW99S. Love it! Then I dipped my toes into the PCP world with a Gamo GX40, love that too. Now trying to decide whether to raise my game with a better springer or PCP, but will keep hold of my first two loves.

    Iv the very same rifle and built a bull barrel with extra length to incorporate some baffles, striped it down polished internally and did a few tweaks, it’s a lot more accurate and around 11 foot pounds, cracking little rifle, TbT do a nice kit for it too, makes a good bit of difference. 177 always.

    I do prefer to shoot that HW99 more than any PCP on the market. I own many quality springers and a AirArms PCP but shooting the PCP is getting boring and i use it only with some pest control situations where quick follow up shots are needed. Great rifle Buddy!

      That's about the power the 99's run at in .177, .22 sometimes 11 ftlb or just over but mine in .22 is running high 10's also. Accuracy kills, not power, Si pittaway on another channel had a BSA ultra running just over 10 ftlbs and made regular rabbit kills over 50yds. For me it's just about rats at sub 20 because I've got rimfires and bigger for the longer range stuff.
