Great video. I love the .22 caliber air guns. I just got my first .177 in 30 years and it’s my first in a PCP. All my other PCPs and Airrifle’s are .22 and .25. I forgot just how flat a .177 shoots. Even though it’s a Nova Vista Liberty/Alpha, a 300$ PCP, it is amazingly accurate. I wish I could shoot a break barrel. My shoulders are blown out and it is impossible to cock them. Shame really with all the superb piston driven air guns out there nowadays. Glad to see someone shoot them that truly knows how to get the best out of one. Thanks again, take care, God bless.
Iv just popped a tbt top hat and guide in my hw95. what a different it tuck 36 hours for the kit to arrive.amazing bit of kit. Recommend it to everyone £30 amazing price as well happy shooting every one
I called Tony at Sandwell field sports and he couldn’t have been a nicer guy and more interested in his craft. Great guy, really looking forward to getting my Imp MK2 👍
That's some quality shooting mate, there's some other youtubers who can't match that with a PCP on a Bipod in the prone position and you're doing it standing unsupported and kneeling, well impressed.
That 56yd shot on the little spinner, with a .22 was astounding. I would have worries about hitting that with my S200 in .177. Astonishing shot Si. Nice!
@@mikesharp4033 ,hey up Mike im from west Yorkshire and love a trip down to Sandwell, the lads are very knowable, friendly and a good laugh, last month I bought a hw35 over the phone and left it with them to tune ,should be ready February/March, out of all the guns I've ever had or own now it has to be the hw95 that Sandwell tuned about 4/5 years ago that I'd never sell ,this hw95 shoots just as good or better than any pcp I've ever shot 👍
Hi SI, I have, on the strength of your review I ordered an IMP mk 2 this morning. SFS treated me very well and I can see why they have featured in some of your video's. I love your honest no nonsense reviews and look forward to seeing many more. keep up the good work, you're a star!! For anyone reading this this is my first comment on any air rifle review, although I've seen many and apart from being a subscriber I have no connection with either Si or SFS.
Why the disclaimer at the end Gary...? As I understand, but I may be wrong and please forgive me if I am, aren’t VHT sponsored by SFS? Are you really telling the audience the truth about a connection with said parties? My psychologist mind started waving red flags like crazy with your statement/declaration. That aside, and unlike your good self, I did not have a great experience with Sandwell. I bought this rifle untuned (and without the horrible engraving on breech block) and had it tuned elsewhere due to the poor customer service and attitude in the shop. I’ve shot a Sandwell tuned rifle and can safely say mine is absolutely superior. No sticker/advert on my gun as my tuner of choice doesn’t need it - his reputation precedes him. Only came here to listen to the hype for entertainment purposes. Kind regards.
@@1972pip like you I am suspicious of glowing endorsements, suspecting many are spurious. Hence the disclaimer, which I would agree sounds suspect. I am a fan of the channel, Si sounds honest to me, refreshing in a cynical world. Shame your experience didn't live up to your expectations. When I get the imp II I'll be sure to get back to you with my overall impressions. It has serious competition against my pro sport, walther varmint and fx streamline, we'll see. Keep smiling. Gary
Been following this channel for a ton of years. With a rifle tuned like that, why have a PCP LOL!! Also what one must have in mind is that Si has more experience as a shooter than most. Of course the MK ll rifle is a shooter!!! A top channel to watch indeed :-)
It good to see someone reviewing springers again ,I think should be more springer on review , all we see these days are pcp . great shoot guys keep it up , missed you video for some mouths , great to see you back.
I've just ordered mine from sandwell field sports bit of a wait but I think it's worth it had to sell my pride and joy Walther lgu in the first lock down but I won't be selling this broke my heart when the lgu went but that's life
Impressive spring rifle, impressive marksmanship too. Though I have a couple of extremely accurate 12ft/lbs spring rifles I still hunt to farmyard ranges, 25m. To shoot further would require me some real application to be consistent enough to confidently hit what is a very small target area. Conditions on the day are the other great factor. All credit to you to you putting the effort in to achieve that level of skill. I love these vids of hunting with air rifle. The caveat is always the range is dictated by what accurate shot placement can be delivered any one day. What such vids rarely show is the dedication necessary to reach out beyond the farmyard ranges, and restraint when conditions aren't right. Great to see a spring rifle match modern PCP consistency. Takes ome tuning skill to do that too.
Hello from South Florida, USA. Is it possible that you can do a review of a FAC Rifle for us, especially from that great tuner. And is it possible to buy one from there and have it shipped to Florida we’re there isn’t and restrictions on power??? Thank you and keep safe.
A tuned Weihrauch is a thing of beauty and I've really missed your regular video updates... but can I suggest you keep the rifle absolutely horizontal whilst running the chrono tests? Not being rude here - love this channel! Cheers
Great video and information. Gona be ordering my one today. I have hw95 which is super accurate. Gona get that tuned by sandwell sports aswell. Keep videos coming si. Best
Great shooting Si and the HW99s Tony's made into a Super Rifle brilliant I have the HW 99s in. 22 cal excellent rifle always owned HW rifles Regards 👌👌👌👍
hi after seeing all your reviews on the IMP i got one but there ere somethings that you that you did not mention like when you start shooting the IMP you cannot stop,its deadly accurate and its fun to shoot and thanks to YOU i have a great gun ,THANKS MATE. i hope to see more of your great shows mate
Self tuned my hw97kt a few days ago. Rifle is not bedded in and pellets not weighed the deviation I got was only 3fps over 10 shot string. This being said I will gladly take this rifle off you Si when you get bored of it👍
Great to watch your video and super consistent gun. Looking forwards to watching the next ones ! I've been tuning my 99 but it's not as consistent as that! It's still bedding in and it's getting better and more accurate though, mine is running around 10.4. SFS will be getting loads of enquiries I bet! 👍👍
Good shooting as always. I have a BSA Ultra and a HW97 both bought after watching your channel, not disappointed in either. Not getting your standard but still good with both 👍
I did comment but its gone fantastic video made by two great lads and there fore we respect there judgements and the info will help lots yes I like shooting to just like many others and Tony does a great job so a very big respect to Tony , And its not all about power if its 11ftlbs and less even 10ftlbs it will be very accurate and still kill very accurate shooting vermin better two shoot and handle
Nice one as always. I'd just like to also give a bit of recognition to the gun it begins as too. The weihrauch hw99s. I've recently bought one in .177 and am well impressed. Off the shelf for just over £200 and it shot without throwing off the (pellet balanced on turret trick.) For an hour spent cleaning off grease, polishing piston and refitting, then fitting a £50 hawke fastmount, I can get a group at 50 meters (which I admit wouldn't be as good as your groups but) 7 of 10 shots covered by a 10 pence and the others just outside. Thats off a crappy home made rest too. First time I've ever stripped a gun and although I've messed with springers over the years, only got into it properly end of last year. Maybe I just got lucky but if they're all like that it makes me wonder is the super duper tuned version really worth the extra wait, money etc. Not knocking it in any way though.
Nice to see you guys back great vid I haven't seen you guys preview any underlever rifles from what I hear they don't have the barrel droop that a break barrel has and are even more accurate I have a SPA WF600 .22 underlever pellet rifle made in China it is a cheap underlever gun and the quality is not that great but it does shoot accurately at 30 ft 500fps in a basement Take care thanks for the vid 👍
That's incredible consistency. But I bet it's actually even closer than you found. Because you can see the deviation getting a tiny bit bigger as you increase the amount of shots, I guess from the heat? It would be a massive ball ache but I bet if you left it 5 mins between each shot it would barely deviate at all.
@@VerminHuntersTV I imagine the slightly longer factory threaded barrel plus HW moderator acting as a muzzle weight will only add to the smoothness of the firing cycle.
0.3 total deviation ?? What ??!!!!! NO !!!!!!..... PCP air gun with regulator can do this !!!! Tony is a genius !!! I have 2 HW 77k in .177 and .22 both tuned down from 18 fpe to sub 12 fpe because it is ´not´ a pleasure to shoot accurate with them !!! Shooting cycle is just to hard ! I hit what I´m aiming for but it´s no fun. My good friend in Germany tuned the .22 and it is 12 fpe!!! so it is less than 16 joule wich is important for FT . Thanks for sharing your vid´s !!!!
I just bought one and recon it's good nuf as it is. They're a piece of cake to strip, clean and re lube, I've done mine out of curiosity, was the first time stripping a springer but no dramas. I'm not that experienced at springer shooting but on a calm day shooting off a rest, I can burry a group of pellets under a 10 pence at 40m, and might only have a couple just outside at 50. What more do you need from a springer. For me is it worth spending the price of the gun again for a tune, no.
@@stevo1166 After reading your comment again all these months later I'm going to buy the .177 version as my close quarters rat gun to replace my ageing Webley Sport . Good Hunting pal and stay safe.
@@ginger7558 Go for it, to be honest I havn't put a lot of use to it for pest control, because not long before buying the hw99 I got the air arms s410 which I tend to pick up for the rats. (Normally purely because it's at night and multishot is easier loading in the dark) but every time I get the hw out for a go, it's a joy to shoot, a quality feel to it and I can shoot better with it than previous springers from gamo and bsa. The aa 410 is my first pcp and it's great, but I traded in a springer to help soften the blow of purchasing the pcp, but soon missed having a springer in the cabinet. That's how I came about the 99, and chose .177 because everything else i had previously inc the aa 410 was in .22. Others say the .99 is better in .22, if your buying for close range ratting, you might be better with .22? But either will be good. I've just got a £50 hawke scope on it, a 3-9x40ao, and it holds true. Best of luck!
Nice, 👍 have you ever had a go of one of those BSA lightening XL se the gas ram one, ime thinking about getting one just wondering if you had an opinion on them ??? Thanks in advance 👍👍
But there is still a "twang" in the gun´s coil . How can I be quitt of it ?? Is this a Weihrauch ´thing´ ? I mean for 450 € guns. Airarms TX 200 do not have it / not that much . Or is it just impossible to remove that completely ??
The noise is amplified by the fact that the HD recording unit and microphone is fitted on the scope above the action. In reality it's not like that 😄. There will be noise anyway as there are moving parts. Even when I put that microphone on a PCP it still picks up the hammer as a loud click.
No God unbelievable .si I wish I can get that accuracy in USA with mi New umarex syrix 22 just got it is np but I'll cut it short . no pre load an drop the power to 12 f p
I welcome you cordially. I've been watching your videos for years. I often come back to them again with the same pleasure. Amazing results. I have a question. I shot the counter with 177 caliber, but I decided to change it and bought another HW 97, but .22. I have the piston and cylinder slides done. Refined everything possible ... Unfortunately, it is not known why the speed jumps up to 10m. It's a lot. The piston-cylinder system was changed and still the same. I don't know where to look for the problem. Do you have any idea and advice for this. Greetings to you from Poland Rafał.
Has always a great video and informative I've learned a lot from your videos and put it to good use out in the field hunting. Can you tell me if you are going to do a review on the pard nv008 lrf in the near future.
HW95 Luxus or HW80? I’m about to order but can’t decide between the two. I can’t find any videos which compare the two. Both great rifles but can only order one :) Any advice?? Cheers!
Hi buddy i recently put my deposit on the mk 2 but I got my hands on a Paul short tuned 95 so changed my order at Sandwell for a 97kt 22 cal as I dint really want 2 break barrels in your opinion how do you rate it in 22 the 97 bcs I was wondering weather I should of opted for 98 in 177 rifle will be used mainly for a rabbit permission cheers 👍🇬🇧

No God unbelievable .si I wish I can get that accuracy in USA with mi New umarex syrix 22 just got it is np but I'll cut it short . no pre load an drop the power to 12 f p
I welcome you cordially. I've been watching your videos for years. I often come back to them again with the same pleasure. Amazing results. I have a question. I shot the counter with 177 caliber, but I decided to change it and bought another HW 97, but .22. I have the piston and cylinder slides done. Refined everything possible ... Unfortunately, it is not known why the speed jumps up to 10m. It's a lot. The piston-cylinder system was changed and still the same. I don't know where to look for the problem. Do you have any idea and advice for this. Greetings to you from Poland Rafał.
Has always a great video and informative I've learned a lot from your videos and put it to good use out in the field hunting. Can you tell me if you are going to do a review on the pard nv008 lrf in the near future.
No mate as there are tonnes on TH-cam already.
What situation of covid-19 in your country
We are supposed to be getting better and releasing restrictions but watching the TV Id say we will be another lock down soon.
@@VerminHuntersTV ok friend see you soon in next video

Great review ! nothing wrong with the HAWKE Fast mount BUT would have been nice to see your Near & Far calibration ;-)
Cracking Vid, pardon the pun...
Nearly picked up the phone and bought one... Still time yet... Best get her indoors to hide my wallet...
I just got a hatsan 1000x .25 how do you feel about these springers?
Is there a buzz noise on shooting it?
No, it's just what sound the scope camera picks up. It's not like that with your ears
Davy the spring gun sniper ... I see where he gets his name!! Si when you uploading again? Missing you guys! As always great shooting
HW95 Luxus or HW80? I’m about to order but can’t decide between the two. I can’t find any videos which compare the two. Both great rifles but can only order one :)
Any advice?? Cheers!
