andy836 4 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Hi there, been registered on the forums a couple of months and loads of tips and info. I've been looking at getting a new springer and decided on the air arms tx200 in .177 mainly going to be used for range shooting and the odd back garden plinking session, lucky enough to have bought a house with a 100ft back garden. What I would like help with is deciding whether to get full length version or the HC? Is there a big difference in noise levels between the two? As I don't want to be ups setting the neighbours. Thanks for any advice given. Quote Link to post
A1WOC 212 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 I like the way the HC handles and its every bit as accurate as the full length version. Being a carbine it is noisier than the other models but if you only use a moderator when shooting in your own back garden like I did it shouldn’t present a problem. It does alter the POI slightly when adding the moderator but only on the elevation, keep a note of the number of clicks and it’s easy to change between the two. The TX200 is very easy to work on too with no special tools required. Regards, Steve Quote Link to post

pianoman 3,587 Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 You won't be disappointed with the HC in .177. Superlatives not necessary. Quote Link to post
andy836 4 Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Thanks for the advice, now £600 poorer, just ordered the HC in left handed walnut stock with a Hawk varmint sf 4-16 scope, going to see how loud it is then if necessary purchase a moderator later. 1 Quote Link to post
