HW50 S Specs and Shooting Performance

The HW50 S is the perfect “back garden” rifle, suitable for shooters of all abilities from teenagers to OAPs . Cocking effort is moderate, with one reviewer noting that his 13-year-old daughter could easily cock the rifle and shoot through a tin of pellets . Accuracy testing revealed groups of approximately 3/8″ at 30 yards when rested, with an outstanding 10-shot spread of just 7 fps using Weihrauch’s F&T Specials pellets . The rifle is not pellet fussy, with testers switching between AA Fields, QYS, and JSB with very little difference in performance . The HW50 S is capable of knocking down targets on the club range and, with the addition of a scope, makes an excellent lightweight hunter .
