Weihrauch HW97 Black Line STL .22

 

The Weihrauch HW97 Black Line STL in .22 calibre is a premium, German-engineered underlever spring-piston air rifle. It is widely celebrated by hunters and target shooters for delivering PCP-level accuracy within a self-contained, traditional spring platform.

• Action Type: Underlever spring-piston system.
• Calibre: .22 (5.5mm).
• Muzzle Velocity: Approximately 205 m/s (672 fps) in full-power configurations, or tuned to around 550–560 fps (yielding ~11 ft-lbs of energy) for the UK/Irish sub-12 ft-lbs limit.
• Weight: 4.20 kg (approx. 8.7 lbs).
• Total Length: 1,015 mm (39.75 inches).
• Barrel Length: 300 mm (11.75 inches), fixed barrel with integrated muzzle brake.
• Optics Mounting: 11mm dovetail rail. Note: This rifle features no open sights and must be fitted with a scope.

• “Stainless Look” (STL) Finish: The metalwork features a highly durable, nickel-plated “stainless-look” finish. It provides enhanced corrosion resistance against the elements compared to standard blued steel.
• Synthetic Thumbhole Stock: The “Black Line” designation denotes an all-weather black polymer stock. Built as an ambidextrous thumbhole design with textured stippling on the grip and forearm, it ensures a highly ergonomic hold for both right- and left-handed shooters.
• Underlever Fixed Barrel System: Because the barrel remains perfectly rigid and does not pivot like a standard break-barrel rifle, the scope alignment stays perfectly consistent with the bore, maximizing long-range accuracy.
• Rekord” Match Trigger: It comes standard with Weihrauch’s world-famous, two-stage adjustable Rekord trigger unit, widely considered the gold standard for mechanical airgun triggers.
• Automatic Safety: A safety button at the rear of the action automatically engages every time the underlever is cycled to prevent accidental discharges.
