Walther LG400 (16J)
Walther LG400 (16J) is a high-end air rifle designed and manufactured by Carl Walther GmbH, a renowned German arms manufacturer. The LG400 (16J) model is part of Walther's LG400 line of air rifles, which are specifically engineered for competitive shooting, particularly in the 10m Air Rifle discipline. This model is distinguished by its maximum energy output of 16 Joules, which is higher than the standard output for 10m air rifles, making it suitable for a broader range of shooting disciplines beyond the traditional 10m events.

The Walther LG400 (16J) incorporates advanced engineering and technology to provide shooters with superior accuracy, stability, and ergonomics. The rifle features a precision barrel and a highly adjustable match trigger, allowing shooters to customize the trigger pull weight and travel to their preference. The stock of the LG400 (16J) is designed for adjustability, offering shooters the ability to fine-tune the rifle's balance and fit to their specific body dimensions and shooting style. This level of customization ensures that the shooter can achieve a comfortable and stable shooting position, which is critical for achieving high levels of accuracy in competitive shooting.

Performance[edit | edit source]
The Walther LG400 (16J) is designed to meet the needs of elite competitive shooters. The increased energy output of 16 Joules allows for a flatter trajectory and reduced wind drift, which can be advantageous in outdoor shooting conditions. This makes the LG400 (16J) not only suitable for 10m Air Rifle competitions but also for longer-range shooting disciplines where higher muzzle energy is beneficial.
Regulations and Usage[edit | edit source]
It is important to note that the increased energy output of the Walther LG400 (16J) means that it may not be legal for use in all jurisdictions or in all shooting competitions. Shooters interested in using the LG400 (16J) should verify the regulations governing air rifle competitions in their region or the specific rules of the competitions in which they wish to participate. Despite these considerations, the LG400 (16J) remains a popular choice among competitive shooters who are looking for a high-performance air rifle with the capability to compete across a range of shooting disciplines.
