Cannon Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 As per title. A friend of mine is contemplating having his HW97 tuned to get the most out of it in terms of performance and smoothness. It is currently performing at around 18 ft/lbs which he seems happy with. Any suggestions appreciated chaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psycho Posted July 25, 2016 Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) I am of course asuming your friend has an fac as on this part of the pond 18 lb would be illegal. V-mach are the best,also 18lb is a bit powerful for a 97 16.5 is sweeter due to the diameter etc.a hw80 it is not. I would go for a full v glide and trigger job as well as getting a v-mack built in silencer and release unit.
