  1. As Dougy said, i would check the stock screws. I once spent a week trying to zero a rifle, everytime i got it wherevi thought it was spot on, the next shot was miles off. I ended up deciding to strip the rifle, as i went to undo the stock screws noticed they were loose so tightenes them all and tried again, got it spot on and it hasnt moved since.

    Hope you get it sorted soon.

  2. Thanks bladerunnertoo, i shall fit it, then chrony it and see where to go from there. Out of curiosity, how many ft/lbs did it drop per amount of coils removed, just as a rough guide in case mine is over when fitted.

    Good to hear how smooth/great these springs are.

  3. Hi hyflier, ok thanks, i was just concerned that the spring being longer may increase the power above the legal limit. Yes, it is the correct one, purchased from t.w chambers and sons. Thanks for the offer, very kind. I am in mid cornwall, where abouts are you?

  4. Hey everyone, have just bought myself a xs titan mainspring for my hw95. I want to keep my air rifle under uk legal power so was wondering if anyone has fitted an xs titan spring to hw95 and know how many, if any, coils need to be cut off as the spring seems to be considerably longer than my current spring.

    Many thanks in advance for your help

  5. Just pure evil little *****!! What will they do this to next? Another animal? A child?

    Just bring back the old fashioned punishment of tying them to a wooden post in the middle of the village/town and giving them a public flogging, then just leave them there for the rest of the week for the public to have a go.

  6. He's probably got one now as it was getting on for 2 years ago. :-)

    I hadnt noticed the date, oops! What a muppet! This post appeared at the top of the list when i signed in earlier so (wrongly) assumed it was a recent post.

  7. looking to spend about 500-750 on a spring air rifle guys.anyone got a rifle I should give a good look to ?

    Well, im new to this forum but i would recommend a HW95 fitted with a tinbum tuning kit and spend the rest on a decent scope, i have a nikko stirling 4-16x44 lrx fitted to mine and its a great setup. Very reliable, well built and worth a look if u ask me.
  8. Hi, i have a slight problem with the hawke one piece adjustable mounts. I can adjust the elevation with no problems but as soon as you tighten the grub screw to lock the adjuster off it pushes the scope sideways and then the windage is miles out. Is this normal? Does anyone else have any experience with these mounts?

    Cheers

  9. Try a terminal screwdriver as a lot of them will fit in a torch or star drive head. It won't be that tight. My HW 95 has a gold screw with a slotted head and a hole in the trigger guard to adjust it. Bought it on the strength of people's views on the HW95, I hate the thing it's been tuned and it's full on twang o matic. Very good trigger though.

    I have a hw95, when i first bought it it was very twangy, bought a tinbum tuning kit and fitted it myself, no more twang, sounds sweet as a nut. They are on ebay for about £22 + postage. Item no: 252303095138
