Bad Points

Bull barrel makes front a bit heavy


General Comments

Weihrauchs most expensive break barrel. The Bull barrel is unfortunatly just a steel sleeve, adding to the weight, unlike air arms prosport, which is a shrouded, silenced barrel. The 98 stock is fantastic, being adjustable for perfect scope/eye alignment. The stippling on forend, and pistol grip aids grip, pity Weihrauch didn't offer this stock for their other models, even as an option. Under the stock, the 98 is basically a 95, minus Bull barrel. If you fancy tuning, good kit can be obtained for £125. A lovely looking rifle, that's accurate, and has full power, straight out of the box. Like all Weihrauchs, superbly engineered, will last a lifetime if looked after. Don't seem to see these advertised much, disappointingly often overlooked, but worth the extra £ just for the stock. The barrel sleeve can be removed, underneath is a standard Weihrauch barrel. Well recommended
