HW 55T
Posted: Fri Sep 27, 2013 8:00 am
I collected HW55 rifles for some time and have now decided it is time to exercise them all a little more often so I took my absolutely mint HW55T down to RMTC last night to see how it performed. The 55T is the Tyrollean stocked version of the Model 55 with the distinctive raised cheek piece.
The HW55 rifle shoots beautifully and with just the right amount of power for a match air rifle with very little recoil that does not interfere with the follow-through hold.
This is a very impressive rifle and it is a shame not to use it as often as possible. I have a second HW55T and some other variants so when I have photographed them all for bobsairguns I will thin-out the collection and just keep one of them so it gets used rather than just stored like all the others.
The HW55T is not a heavy rifle and to me it has a perfect balance and is extremely accurate despite still dieseling a little since being woken from its sleep.
