FEATURES

The Weihrauch HW99S is a popular air rifle manufactured by Weihrauch, a renowned German company known for producing high-quality airguns. The HW99S is designed primarily for target shooting and plinking, offering accuracy, reliability, and affordability. Here’s an overview of its features:

• Spring-Piston Powerplant: The HW99S operates on a spring-piston powerplant, where a coiled spring is compressed by the action of cocking the rifle. Upon pulling the trigger, the spring releases its stored energy, propelling a pellet down the barrel. This traditional powerplant design is known for its simplicity, durability, and consistent performance.
• Caliber Options: The HW 99S is typically available in .177 and .22 caliber options. The .177 calibre is popular for target shooting and plinking due to its flat trajectory and high velocity, while the .22 calibre provides more stopping power and is suitable for small game hunting.
• Break-Barrel Action: The HW99S features a break-barrel design, where the barrel is hinged at the front of the rifle and can be cocked by breaking it downward. This action compresses the spring, preparing the rifle for firing. The break-barrel design offers simplicity and ease of use, making it suitable for shooters of all skill levels.
• Precision Barrel: The HW 99S is equipped with a precision-rifled barrel, which enhances accuracy by imparting spin to the pellet for improved stability and trajectory. Weihrauch is known for the quality of their barrels, and the HW99S is no exception.
• Adjustable Trigger: The HW99S features an adjustable two-stage trigger, allowing shooters to customize the trigger pull weight and travel to suit their preferences. This can help improve accuracy by providing a consistent and predictable trigger response.
• Ergonomic Stock: The HW99S typically comes with a hardwood or synthetic stock with an ergonomic design for comfortable shooting. The stock often includes checkering on the grip and forend for improved grip and control.
• Automatic Safety: The HW99S includes an automatic safety mechanism that engages when the rifle is cocked, preventing accidental discharge until the shooter deliberately disengages it.
• Scope Mounting: While the HW99S is accurate enough for shooting with open sights, it also features a dovetail rail for mounting a scope or other optics for enhanced accuracy at longer distances.
