Stage 2 Tuned Weihrauch HW97KT Part 2 with Si Pittaway & Davy Thomas

[@peterobinson29]

Thanks Si and Davy for your energetic, enthusiastic and motivational videos. I shoot centrefire 30-06 and 243 and 12 bore mainly but have owned many pcp rifles including Air Arms, Daystate and Weirauch. I like many features of pcp's but the true benefit of a springer is that it's always ready (unlke a mk3 with a flat battery just when you have crosshairs on a magpie!). I like the way to take time to make these videos to share your joy and love of the sport, so much so I have ordered the HW95 Luxus, HW97 KT, HW98 & HW99s IMP all tuned stage 1 & 2 in .177 and .22 for the Imp all from Sandwell Field Sports. I'm really looking forward to spending the day there and picking some scopes to go with in early to mid March. All the best and keep up the great vids boys.

Brilliant lads Love the bit at end take 1 take 2 take 3 lol 😆

[@joekelly9369]

Great shooting Si , good to see you lazing all your quarry , even when something looks closer on open land can be deceptive , getting into the habbit of range finding and using your parralax settings to deadly accurate affect .good on yous

[@TheGeodoctorcl]

Hello Si and Davy from Canada! I know it's 3 years on since you shot this video, and I've been subscribed to you for just over a year. I wish to say TY for hours of enjoyment and education on airgun hunting. Within the next few weeks i am excited to say i am putting in my order for a new HW97 KT! It's been your actions and talents that have convinced me of the guns true potential. I do shoot conventional 'powder burners' and the odd air pistol, and I know there exist a learning curve to mastering the air rifle. I watch everything you've ever put out, and many of these videos multiple times. It will be a dream come true to finally say I own one of these amazing rifles. TY to both of you for your excellent videos, education, and entertainment. You are both outstanding shooters in your own right, and i hope at 61 years old to get competent with my new rifle. Cheers!

[@joeking4389]

These long shots just amaze me, once again great shooting.

[@TheDefinitiveAirgunReview]

Brilliant guys these are getting better all the time. I loved the out takes at the end it show us lads have a laugh too. Thumbed and faved as always look forward to seeing you both soon. ATB Malc

[@peterobinson29]

Waited weeks for it but after a 3 hour drive down I finally picked up the tuned HW97KT from Tony Wall at SFS yesterday.... All I can say is what a fantastic shop, full of great gear with a very friendly helpful team running the place. Took it up to the 20m range upstairs and what a phenomenal smooth and well balanced rifle it is in .177 and superbly accurate. Big thanks to Si for bring this to my attention and Tony for doing a top job of tuning it.

[@holmes1978]

Hi Mr. Pittaway I think you are the spokesman for the Weihrauch 97k you are excellent marksman I mostly see you with this rifle ! I got a few of your DVDs a few years ago , you are great !!! Peace .

[@Coutinhoallen1]

Si is the man, he is really a great hunter.

[@paulwynn8029]

love the respect you have for farmers and folks land when your shooting there,if i had a farm,and had vermin problems,you 2 guys would be called,awesome vids and chat,well done guys,ps,i have same rifle and i love it.

[@tonyhoodlass1846]

Just got HW97K and HW98 Both Brilliant

[@kelticpaddler]

Great video guys. I have the HW97KT Blackline in .22 and your video has given me the confidence to work on my distance shooting. Got it in SFS for a tune. 20 weeks wait...erk! I suppose perfection is well worth the wait. Cherrs...David

[@patrickpirelli7897]

Nice shooting, I bagged my first rabbit today with my new Hw95k at 30 yards on my first trip out 👌

[@VerminHuntersTV]

Hi Roger, thanks buddy. I think the tune hasn't made the rifle any more accurate than the standard out the box rifle but what it as done has made it much easier to gain the accuracy I can from it. Davy is a very good shot so its expected that he does very well with his springer mate. When we shoot together its normal for almost every shot to be taken between 40 to 60 yards. Si.

[@leandro27th]

Nice work Si. Amazing precission. U make it look all too easy.

[@luisvazquez4570]

Love it nice video you guys are the best

[@AirGunnerSam1]

[@risingfriend100]

[@tonyktx44]

Howdy from Texas, You boys sure can shoot, good clean humane shots with a minimum of wasted meat. I served with some Brits in Afghanistan, now I can see where ya'll learned how to shoot. Thank God we're on the same side ! lol Keep making these great videos.

[@dannoplug88]

[@ZeusThunderbolt]

[@dannyboon3176]

love the vids lads especially with the weihrauch 97kt's

[@VerminHuntersTV]

Hi mate, The wait will be well worth it i can tell you. Tony's work is second to none when it comes to tuning springers. We have not filmed part 3 yet buddy. Thanks for commenting. Si.

[@lopeasantos1]

what an incredible shot ... no wonder you've got the right tool ...

[@davekendo2085]

After seeing you with the rifle i bought one just to see how good they are. got to go to the range to zero it, then I'll be using it in the spring to hunt on my permission. Still us the R10 mk 2 in .22 as my standard go to rifle, they are brilliant

[@carsmax]

what a great video you guys made! One day next year I will visit Sandwell Sports to tune my HW 77 k .177 and I need a thumbhole stock! I hope Tony have one for me !!? At my original pistol grip I get pain in my wrist . See you later. Thanks for the vid!

[@ianchurches9866]

[@joekelly9369]

You can see its detatched retina (the clear jelly lens in the eye )in slow motion flying off to the left , crazy

[@luisvazquez6491]

Nice video guys

[@trimntim]

Merry Christmas fellas.

[@janio_ba5578]

Congratulations for a brilliant video. Between .177 and .22 calibers which the best in 16J? Here in Brazil we do not limit the power of the air gun, but the discussion is large with respect to the best caliber. Many prefer the .177 jânio

[@angof]

Another great vid guys, so nice to see springers in action. you boys putting accupells thru your 97`s ?

[@HegartySlings]

Another great vid lads. Nick

[@vainparasite]

Hi guys ace video as per I’m looking to buy a decent springer mainly for target shooting as I don’t really have the thing for hunting. I understand why most people do it and don’t have a problem with humane kills, I’m just not into doing it myself so paper and tins it is for me 👍 Anyway I really do like the 97k but I also really like the 95k too and it’s a good bit cheaper. Is there any difference in accuracy and range between them? I’ve always had break barrel springers and know they are a bit lighter. Thanks martin

[@davidreiss267]

Davy looks funny as shit with out the stash haha

[@MultiLongacre]

Great vid and as always excellent shooting, much enjoyed!! Trefor

[@drynet1957]

Excellent shooting by you two marksmen, when are you showing part 3 of the stage 2 SFS tune Si as i am interested in the hw97kt tuned by tony wall, i rang them this week and tony is on a deserved holiday but i shall place my order when he his back the waiting time is about 4 weeks but well worth the wait. thanks Barrie.

[@Mush179]

Top vid Si,Got me back into airguns ,Keep the vids coming mate,Thank you Colin

[@Electronicpoacher1]

hey cracking shots lads,

[@tomallen3]

where can you gt that rangefinder which was on top of your scope covers. please tell me ASAP ps awersome video.

[@neilmoors6415]

Hi Sir and Davy I have got a smk xs41 no where in the same league as your guns, how easy is it to get a springer tuned cheers again fantastic shooting please keep doing what you do

[@porkycrook]

Fantastic shooting as always Si and Davy. If you ever need somebody to be your camera man or extra gun or even tea boy i can do it lol. The two shots on the pigeons that you both took, has the tuning made that much difference, because you both had shots of equal distance but Si your holdover was 2 less than Davy's.

[@keaty1984]

Hi si thanks for the vids. After many days trawling the net looking were to get my hw95 tuned. I came across this video. Just spoke to Tony and sending my rifle to him,shame it takes a month but I'm sure it will be worth it. Thanks again si,also can't seem to find part 3?

[@thestokie3]

Nice vid fellas

[@85k11]

some great shooting there chaps just go's to show what you can do with a good springer

[@jaydix6871]

Nice work lads. Great vid!

[@johnbeaumont2951]

Got a 97 K on order from SFP but have 20 week wait as getting it tuned Cheers jb

[@rogers1908]

Yet another top production guys. Always very interesting. Si, what LRF do you use mate? I rangefind (where I have to) using parallax/mag or bracketing. I need to up my game... Duncan

[@TriggerPullTV]

great shooting as usual lads. Si, what mounts are you using on your HW97KT they look pretty low? Is it a 50mm objective?

[@28mStuart]

Great vid guys keep em comin

[@steinderbush]

Hi guys, good shooting!! What power has this gun as it is tuned, and what do they change in tuning!! The underlever ,isn,t it more clumsy than a break barrel with hunting!!!??

[@christophefqt4820]

hello I'm french I have a little trouble with English? short I watch your video for more than two years I am and I wonder what mechanism you use for your vmatch hw97K? thank you and continue the video is great

[@Tiller4567]

Love the video, just want to know are the Hw97's your using .177 or .22? Do you prefer one over the other?

[@Chainman1957]

Nice shooting lads, where's the main difference in the tune, is it the lack recoil , as watching you take the first rabbit i noticed virtually no recoil?

[@steinderbush]

Hallo Simon, your Weihrauch 97 is that in fact the same gunsystem as the 77k in .22 !!??? But only more luxury version!???

[@VerminHuntersTV]

So I'm lead to believe the 97 is the updated version of the 77 and with a added silencer.

[@mariyadaz]

Hi Si & Davy. How much does Tony charge for a stage two tune on the 97kt. Excellent as usual lads.

[@heysey3]

Si I am a new owner of a HW97KT and wondered if you could give some advice about fitting a sling to my gun can it be done and if so what in your opinion is the best way to fit it

[@11ste999]

Good videos! !

[@delroywashington3185]

Hw97 springer best rifle ever

[@VerminHuntersTV]

They are both .22 calibre mate. We use both .177 and .22. Si.

[@877cms]

Hi, I am lucky to live near Sandwell Field Sports and am popping there tomorrow to try this exact rifle. Speaking to Sol he advocates the 177 but I notice you use the 22, any reason?

[@owenswift1]

what pellets are you using h&n pellets are ment to be the best but im 15 and realey cant afford to buy those pellets do you have any suggestions on any other pellets i could use also great videos

[@robertgrant2420]

hi mr pittaway what size are your scopes on your gun?

[@coles201]

What scope are you using and what would you recommend for this rifle? Thanks

[@tinkerman9434]

do u know if Tony can ,and would do i tune on my Benjamin trail NP2.22? and how i would go about it?i live in the USA

[@VerminHuntersTV]

I think my rifle is doing 11.7 with 14.66 grain pellets at the mo mate.

[@scotthughes9089]

nice fishing hoody from aldi, iv got one two :P

[@boonster666]

What cal are the weapons .177 or .22 cheers

[@filoIII]

So Davy shooting directly off a rest didn't affect accuracy?

[@stevetierney2630]

Looks fairly well padded to me. Probably softer than his hand TBF.

[@austin2272]

What caliber 22 or 177

[@wilsonsoaresdourado9493]

+soeun ngorn Si's is.22 and Davis I'm not sure, but I think it's .177.

[@growingwithrizzi2989]

@@wilsonsoaresdourado9493 oth guns are actually 22... they said at roughly 11min in

[@luisvazquez3703]

nice fucking shot ha ha ha

[@Razzledazzle01]

[@boonster666]

Cheers mate

[@chrisrobinson7395]

What calibre

[@kawasakiz1ba463]

[@joekelly9369]

Hi, I have been wathcing your youtube channel for some time and I wanted to let you know we all think you should not chnage your ranges. Treat any critisism as feedback and personal attacks (which seems to be the case with this one individual) as flattery. 1,903 have watched this video because they like your content and are smart enough to take what they need from it. If an individual does not like your product they don't have to watch,

[@SebastiantrotterHT]

I'm getting, to I am hahaha

[@seaflyfisher]

Out take 3............."I've got a bit of a stalk on here" - I know shooting can be exciting but that's a bit too much information there Si !!
