Weihrauch HW50S Breakbarrel Rifle

Everything!!! I bought the Weihrauch HW50s .177 based on reputation alone. I had never seen one much less shot one. It has not disappointed. 25-30 yard accuracy is excellent, especially with HnN Barracuda Match 10.65. The cocking effort is easy and smooth. Ordered it on Labor DayMonday and it delivered to my front door on Thursday. So far impressed with Pyramids shipping!!! Great buying experience!!!

If Your looking for a premium break barrel the HW50s is hard to beat

In general (I've only had the rifle for a week now), is its overall handling characteristics and "shootability".

Eliminate the 0.100" gap between the end of the receiver and the stock. My HW77 exhibits no gap there at all and my HW80 exhibits a gap of about 0.050", so not quite as noticeable.

I have a 25 yard shooting range set up in my back yard with my shooting bench on the deck. Before purchasing the HW50S in .177 caliber my only two air rifles were a 40 year old HW77 in .177 caliber and a 5 year old HW80 in .22 caliber, both set up with large target scopes, heavy duty scope mounts, and slings, and weighing in at 10lb8oz and 10lb 12oz respectively. I wanted something for plinking and ridding the garden of pests that was a little more backyard and neighbor friendly. I spent a lot of time drooling over an HW50 back in my early teens, so after 55 years of waiting I finally purchased one, better late than never. Wow! - What a difference 3 pounds can make, set up with a standard size 4x32AO scope and rings, the gun tips the scales at exactly 7lb8oz, It's like handling a full size .22 LR or a light weight deer rifle, the difference is night and day. The very first shot fired with this rifle was .50" right and .25" high of point of aim at 25 yards; just icing on the cake.

Fit and finish. Accuracy. Very easy to shoot. Not pellet picky. The open sights superb.

Nothing.

I got this rifle to primarily shoot with the open sights. It's very easy to shoot and the accuracy is consistent. I'm able to put 5 shots in a quarter sized group from 20yards with the open sights regularly. I'm very pleased with it. If you're on the fence for whatever reason just get it. You won't be disappointed.

This is a precise engineered masterpiece. Everything on the rifle oozes perfection. The bluing is deep and beautiful, the wood is finished nicely, and the gun will put pellets through the same hole. I shot 8 different pellets through the rifle ranging from cheap Crosman to expensive JSB and all of them shot incredible.

I wouldn't change a thing, but I would like if the gun was offered as an option in a walnut stock.

If you have never owned a Weihrauch then you are missing out. Yes they are expensive but once you own one you will know the price is justified. There is nothing you really need to do other than clean the barrel and check the screws before shooting. You may smell a little oil and the gun may be a little loud for the first several shots and that is normal. Once you start shooting you will see how crazy accurate this gun is. The more you shoot it the better the gun will get. The spring will settle in and the shot cycle will get smoother and smoother. Also you will continue to be amazed as the accuracy will also improve. People buy two or three Gamo rifles that wear out and shoot with a rough twangy cycle when instead they should just buy one good rifle. The Weihrauch will outlast you and it will be handed down to your kids. They are called heirloom rifles for a reason.

quality fit and finish

perfect as is

this is the one you are looking for , buy it

beautiful rifle, superb fit and finish

fiber optic sight option would be nice for hunting, the sights are more for target shooting

put a bugbuster on it and have fun

Overall quality and accuracy.

The stock is really not for a scope shooter. It drops too much. Probably ok for iron sights.

Great medium weight/power springer for all-around use.
