HW100 .22 pellets

[Revan797]

Hello all,

Does anyone here have a Weihrauch HW100 in 22 just wanted to know what pellets you were using through yours or could recommend.

Had a look some say JSB exact diabolos 15.89 and other that pops up is H&N field target trophy 14.6gr, will probably get both tins this Saturday to try out

Any help/advice appreciated cheers

Your rifle barrel is unique so the only way is to buy some sample packs and do the hard mile.

JSB exact diabolos

^^^ These, or AA Diablo Field, any of the premium pellets. JSB sell a variety pot, about 30 pellets of every variety they make, worth a look for testing. My FX crown shoots the JSB rs the best, even though it's the lightest pellet coming out of 30ftlb .22

My pals non FAC likes Accupels.

Mines not fussy, so I use Bisley magnums

That's going to be it Rob bite the bullet shell out for couple varying weight tins, is it uttings who are the only ones who do sample packs of pellets

No issues there bit of experimentation and trigger time too all good

Will buy couple of them, Oh aye nice I'll get some sample packs/ variety packs run diff gr weights through it.

Very good heard v good things about FX crown, that must be going with some ommphhh.

Had bad experience with FX one of their first old models MK1 version mags were awful springs and the upgrade mags weren't seated securely so like pinball klunk every time you went vertical to horizontal with it.

JSB straton are the sleeper pellet-they work well in everything. All I put through my 100 in .22

They always work better for me than the other jsb options in a rifle that likes jsb.

I have quite a large range of sample pellets at this point but basically find that either a barrel likes jsb and straton is best or it likes h and n so I use FTT

 

[labrador77]

As has been suggested, get a range of sample packs, it's the only way you'll really get to learn what your rifle likes. When I had my Hw100k in .177, it's favourite pellet turned out to be Bisley magnums.

 

[Cyres]

I would try superdomes. I could ask.my mate who has one what he uses.

Ditto on RWS superdomes 14.5G

My old BSA Scorpion T-10 in .22 sub 12ft/lbs liked Bisley Long Range Gold which are, I think, H & N Field Target Trophy in fact? I am presently trying those and JSB Express in my also sub 12ft/lbs BSA Scorpion SE. I head shot a cage trapped squirrel just this morning with the JSB Exact and they kill as I hoped. If the OP sends me a PM with their address I can send maybe twenty or so of the JSB Express? I also tried JSB RS and didn't like them at all.

 

[triggersqueezer]

I was advised to try barracuda 8 and yep they shot the best in mine .

Yeh, i binned the fx mags and have 3x carm mags, never had any more problems since.
I lovev the fx Crown, mine is the cheap VP model, purchased just for shooting rats, an excellent tool. I do wish sometimes I had bought the model with two barrels, id like to run a 380 on mine, instead of the 500.

You're correct in thinking that Bisley Long Range Gold are made by H&N, but they aren't rebadged Field Target Trophy, they're a different pellet.

I tried alot of pellets out. My HW100 mk1 favourites are Crosman premier domed, ultra magnum 14.9 gr 5.5mm. Others that worked well were JSB jumbo heavy 18.13 gr 5.5mm, Air Arms Diablo Field 16gr 5.5mm ,JTS dead centre 16.08 gr & H&N field target in 5.53 head. 5.54/5.54 opened up a bit.
