ON THE FIRING LINE THIS MONTH: WEIHRAUCH HW 110 KARBINE
-

I thought I’d do something a little different this month, by reviewing my good friend Roger Cooling’s .177 Weihrauch HW 110 Karbine rifle. Roger and I have been shooting together for just over a year now, on various permissions up here in Lincolnshire, and he has been shooting rabbits consistently with his HW 110 K during that time. He rarely misses a shot, and has customized the basic rifle with a bipod and camo tape, but the bare bones underneath are just your regular ‘off the shelf’ Weihrauch. We planned a day out together to see if there were any rabbits or pigeons on one of our permissions so that I could get to grips with the rifle myself and discover why he loves it so much.
COMPACT PACKAGE
Just like in the world of optics, manufacturers are constantly finding ways of cramming ‘big quality’ into smaller and smaller packages, and the HW 110 K is no exception with a 3.8-inch shorter barrel and ½-inch shorter reservoir than the original HW 110 rifle. The result is a rather compact sporter, which offers both accuracy and maneuverability in close-quarters situations.
PLASTIC FANTASTIC!
Don’t jump to conclusions! Whilst designing the HW 110, Weihrauch decided to ditch their metal action block in favour of a polymer one. The result is a huge saving in terms of both weight and retail price, and this moulded action has stood the test of time since its inception over four years ago.
