Hi , i have one in 17hmr and find it absolutly fine, trigger is adjustable so you can have it to your liking and it will group as good as any annie i've seen ! but with the cash you've got to spend (£900) you should be able to pick up a new Sako for that much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted October 24, 2007 Report Share Posted October 24, 2007 i would say that if you have issues with a HW i wouldn't go for a Sako cus there even Better Funny you mention the trigger being light, i read that nearly all rifle owners that post on here change or modify the factory trigger to make it a lighter pull what did you do to try and rectify the bad grouping. and what was the size of group on average its just that i was lookin at the Weihrauch before i bought mine.

Dead-Eyed Duck Posted October 27, 2007 Report Share Posted October 27, 2007 If you don't like a light trigger then buy a Remmy - accuracy is fine but the trigger is not light.... Or buy a Sako or Tikka - accurate enough for anyone as a sporter. Bit puzzled as to why you are going for a 0.222, as a 0.223 is just as accurate and cheaper to buy ammo for....
