Q:

Cricket .22 with machined LW choked barrel

Hi,

Here are the pictures of the barrel:

And the grouping of 14 shots. The distance is 50 meters:

The diameter of 1 GROSZ coin is 15 mm. The pellet which was used was JSB Heavy. I haven’t tested different pellets yet.

What do you think?

I’ve been following other forums and there’s a lot of unhappy people with accuracy problems. Seem Kalibr doesn’t want to address it.
No problem with my .22 Cricket…..

yes the 3 LW barrels I have purchased seem not to be great at first but after shooting them awhile seem to really tighten up the groups.this is again what I have noticed for me and LW barrels.hope yours is great from start and stays that way for you.it is amazing that not a one has showed up here in the usa or could be no one has really noticed it or is afraid to say anything negative of fear of getting ridiculed by the mop :angrymob: :rofl: :rofl:

I remember seeing the pictures of your barrels and hearing the stories. Here in the USA at least there have been a lot of Crickets sold and I have not heard of that being a problem.

LW barrel is taken from there: http://www.lothar-walther.com/457.php

my limited experience with the lw barrels is to shoot them and watch how groups start to really shrink

You mean that these barrels need some shots to improve the accuracy?

A lot of guys from Poland received crappy barrels in Crickets:

KalibrGun refused to exchange them because there was no barrel without defect among a big number of them in the KalibrGun factory.
Here in Poland, we are really curious if the barrels with defect reached different countries.

The fly of the pellet on a new barrel:

On CZ one there was that terrible spiraling observed.

Your are correct. Generally, it would not make much sense since Cricket CZ barrels shoot so well. He must have had an issue.

why would you change barrels? ❓ I was under the impression cz made outstanding barrels.any history here would be appreciated.my limited experience with the lw barrels is to shoot them and watch how groups start to really shrink.you are evidently an accomplished marksman,so I am just curious why the change. 😕

The accuracy is very good, is it match grade lothar wather or just blank lothar, bro?

Doesn’t look like there’s any problem to me.
