Mehulkamder,
I read the article you posted a while ago and remember it well. Here is what is in the article.
All those test reports has to be taken with a dose of salt - you have to read between the lines. At the end the autor Roland Zeitler resumed under negative:

"Nachteile
defekte Zielfernrohr-Montage / faulty scope mount
überteuert / overpriced"

In detail he said:
"Das erste Schussbild mit fünf Schuss auf 100 Meter betrug noch 37 mm. Ich hatte dabei schon etwas Schwierigkeiten beim Abnehmen und Aufsetzen der Montage. Sie legte sich trotz umgelegten Schwenkriegels erst richtig bei etwas Zug fest. Nachdem ich einige Patronen verschossen hatte, wurde die Montage defekt."

The first target on 100 m with five round circled in 37 mm. I got problems with attaching and disattaching the scope mount ( I am sure he means scope ). She did not close even the lever was closed properly. After I had fired a couple of rounds, the mount went faulty.

"Sicherlich schießt die Waffe hervorragend. Wegen der defekten Montage ist das erste Schussbild mit Vorbehalt zu beurteilen. Der Hinterfuß hatte wohl von vornherein schon zuviel Spiel, sodass die Montage überwiegend durch den Vorderfuß gehalten wurde. Im Endstadium wies die Montage hinten ein Höhenspiel von etwa 3/10 Millimetern auf, was zu großen Treffpunktabweichungen führte."

I am sure that the rifle shoots perfect. But because of the faulty mount the first target has to be taken with care. The rear base had from the beginning to much play (clearance), so that the front base only has to hold the mount in place. At the end the rear mount had an elevation play of 3/10 mm, which leads to large variation of the impact.

Owning a couple of bolt action rifles from Hartmann&Weiss and having handled serveral Holland&Holland bolt action rifles, I can clearly state that none of the H&H come close to the H&W bolt action rifles. Therefor I disagree on the holding value of bolt actions from H&H.

How could any rifle hold its value, if you are not able to hit a barn door with it?

Robert
