I own two TX200's mate and you will be hard pushed to find a better spring rifle...........if your looking to get one get it you will not be disapointed...they are accurate and powerful although a little on the weighty side so if your of slight build they may not be the rifle for you

I just got one mate and like it a lot mate thanks

Spend a bit of time plinking targets with it mate....get used to weight and recoil(although its not much)before moving onto live quarry with it......i may sound a bit of a bore but i would do exactly the same with any new rifle that i have never used....its important to get the balance and feel of the rifle before even considering live quarry.....i found when i first moved onto live targets with my TX that i failed to get the feel and the breathing timed enough to make the perfect shot.....with all new things it takes time to get used to it.....But you have took a step in the right direction in getting the right rifle...like i said they are in the top 3 of the worlds best springers in my opinion.....good luck with your new purchase and happy hunting

Make no mistake Andy you bought a cracking rifle. They are beautiful rifles to shoot with. I have a MKIII TX200HC .177 on my FAC that is an awesomely accurate and powerful. It'll put pellets through a 5p sized hole all day at 40 metres and stop a tough animal like a mink dead in it's tracks at the same range.

My TX200 rifle is .22 sub 12 ft/lbs and is very smooth, accurate as you like and delightful to shoot. Steve is absolutely right when he mentions you should practice with it till you get the ballance and feel of it's handling characteristics like second nature. To bwe perfectly honest, I don't find the weight an issue and prefer this to the lightness of a Pre charged rifle anytime. But, that's what I'm used to. I'm a left hander and mine are dedicated left hand loading actions with American Walnut stocks.

 

I love em!

Mine are both TX200 mk 2 and i love em both one has been used 4 times by old guy down road from me and gave it me 3 weeks after i brought the exact same one from gun shop.......i love em....but gunna try sell the older one that is mint except for a slight scratch on the stock to put towards a pcp.....but i will always own a springer as im a springer guy just want pcp to keep with the times...but my springer with the correct ammount of practice is as accurate as any pcp of same power it just takes more practise to achive this and a dam sight more skill
