The Weihrauch HW45 is a recoiling spring air pistol which can be very accurate when held properly but it takes practice and once mastered the pistol will become very accurate. I think the comparison is a little unfair. There's a trick to cure the low power which may go against the grain with some and that is to dry fire the pistol once on full power to seal the piston head thus restoring the gun's power. This is how the piston seal being ptfe is sized at the factory. Try shooting at full power and you will notice it will print low. But don't give up! Thanks for a great presentation.

Great review Shane, I have an old BSA magnum in 22 in very clean order which is very accurate and I only paid £80 for it about 18 months ago, it was an absolute steal really but shoots really well. And I have the old Webley tempest stamped Birmingham which is in mint condition. But the gun I find more accurate and ease of shooting is my crosman 2240 which is in my game bag every day as I do my rounds on jobs for rat control checking my box traps and it’s never let me down. Obviously the other two are collectables and they will one day be handed down.

Great review Shane. I have had the Silver Star a couple of months now and my findings are:- Power was like yours but now after a couple of tins of pellets it has settled at 3.3 ft-lbs on half and 5.5 on full which is fine. It did diesel for a long time and the barrel was full of preservative oil like yours. I found it was much more accurate on full power, it seems to have more mussel flip on half power. I also got mysterious cuts on my fingers and eventually tracked it down to the rear fibre optic site which looked like they had melted the ends to keep in place. The edges were like razors, took my wife's emery board to the top edge and that sorted it . I am a wimp so shoot mine rested (soft bag) without any problems and can achieve 20mm groups at 10m. Keep up the good work. Dick

My HW 45 was producing 3.8ft lbs on full power using"AA Diablo Field 8.4gr .177 with a headsize of 4.52". I returned pistol to Hull Cartridge for examination, They recommended using the pellet they test with and sent me samples to try, this was "Weihrauch ft exact 8.44gr pellets with a headsize of 4.53", What a difference the power output increased to just under 5.2ft lbs and hopefully after the breakin period it may increase a little more. Shane both pellets very accurate for me so hopefully trying different makes can help you achieve better accuracy.

Very good video mate. I had the 45 some weeks ago and took it back. I got full refund. Under powered. I have been pistol shooting for 4 months. Love it. I have the dirty Harry Smith and wesson revolver. Fabulous. I also have crossmam 2040 another brilliant pistol both co2. I shot an Air arms Alpa Pro last week. 10mtr target pistol. £800. Now that's a 10mtr target pistol pcp. 500 gram trigger pull. Love your videos but get rid of the 45 and take a look at the hw75 gas ram. Far superior. I'm 71 years old by the way.

Thanks Brian , I find the rifle shooting abit boring and easy to 60 yards, shooting these pistols is a great challange , and rewarding and harder than it looks , quite a few of the Hw45 pistols seem to be underpowered that I’ve come across, what power was your doing then ?, and also I’m jealous, I really want to have a few shots with a proper high end pistol, and I’m unsure what to buy next yr for my 60th, there’s a lot of choice up to 2200 ish , I did consider the air arms , Any thoughts ? Thanks Shane

@@shaneweightman hi mate. i felt that i wanted to specialize at 10mtr target shooting as it seems you do. my HW45 was only putting out 4.5 foot pounds on full power. I thought well that was £375 and all over the place. The Alpha Pro is £830 but a very different animal. I shot one last week and it does not move. I dont think you will be happy with a standard pistol like Rexix or Snowpeak. I get the impression that you are very serious about your new found interest so if i were you i would just save up for the Air Arms Pro or a Hammerli. I will keep you informed re the Air Arms. Regards Brian
