    mawders you must have loved the pro sport a lot to give it another go after your experience with the ones you tried.it makes you mad that some penny pincher calls the shots after skilled person has put there all into building the best they can.good luck with the one from Si.

    thanks for the feed back Steve.It's thirteen days since I picked up my stage tuned ,22 97kt,it takes a bit of getting use to but I am slowly doing so have not put a full tin through it yet.I don't have any experience of shooting any air rifles other than the one I have just bought this is why I asked for your comparison of the two but if I go for a tx it will be .177. I can't imagine a springer being any better than the 97kt if there is I want one.thanks for your reply Steve.

    hi, Steve, sorry to jump in.how would you compare the tx200hc to the 97kt? I thought about the tx before getting the 97kt.as it is supposed to be like a tuned rifle out of the box.

    thanks lads for advise,Scot how did you know my head has been bobbin about trying to get a clear sight.thanks for that tip will give it a try.had a practice today at dinner time,shooting down the workshop at a target on the wall about 19 meters away standing supported put a few shots on the target still shooting to the left made adjustment to scope bringing shots to the right seemed to be getting better results tried hard today on squeezing trigger rather than pulling it. dinner time coming to an end so i try a few unsupported shots,it's not easy,Ok time to go back to work one last shot 1/4"i

    Thanks Wurz. I am sure it will do.at the moment it's frustration with myself not being able to hold it dead still plus while having a few shots in garden at work shooting at target i was consistently hitting 3/4 of an inch to the left this got me thinking maybe i am not looking straight down the scope when shouldering the rifle but looking across slightly.i wonder if moving scope forward a little would give me a more comfortable hold while looking through sight and straighten my line of sight. any ideas?

    still got the smile Mawders.glad i went for springer first rather than pcp,as i have read that it takes some mastering.but having said that someone was looking at buying a second hand bsa ultra while i was in the shop it looked a very compact gun.maybe next on list.

    finally took the long drive upto sandwell field sports to pick up my stage 2 tuned 97kt. after being greeted by the very friendly tony and his staff,and being offered a tea or coffee they started fitting the scope to the rifle.so I had a good nose round the shop they seem to have every thing you need shooting related.The shop started to become quite busy with people wanting to buy and try air rifles,I was in no hurry so let Tony take someone else upstairs first while i wandered round the shop and had another coffee.finally it was my turn and one of Tony's staff took me upstairs and he set abo

    thanks mawders,time seems to be moving in slow motion.spent a lot of time researching what to get pcp, gas ram, or springer. can't see the point of getting cheap rifle and quickly afterwards wanting something better.ti think i have made a good choice thanks to si and his yt videos.

    no offence taken skot i am under no illusions i will properly never be the shot si pittaway is. i know there is going to have to be lots of practice getting to know the rifle and being confident of making good clean kills before venturing out into the field. hi mawders tony said about 4 weeks for the stage 2 tune which i went for.tony was very helpful with advice on which scope to go for gone for hawke panorama 4x12x50. anyone got one of these?what are they like?

    hi everyone, my first post been reading and researching on yt before buying my first air rifle and si pittaway has me sold on sfs tuned 97kt,and after seeing him take a rabbit at 69 metres i just had to buy one from sfs today,and a reasonable price to.
