Note to self: Keep this post in my bookmarks. If the wife ever question my purchasing a new airgun... I can always reply: I consider myself reasonable, I only bought 1x... Jefferson bought 3x :rolleyes:

Curious to see which stock you end up with.

You get one of those TX200s set up with the Tony L. kit and drop that Sightron on it, you will be surprised how accurately you will be able to shoot it. I put a kit in my TX200HC and put an AirMax 4-16 on it and I'm hitting all my targets out to 55 yards. That is just with the standard stock and nothing adjustable. Can't wait to get it in a FT stock to see its full potential.

Shot the group below when I put the kit in and put the Bushnell on it temporarily because it was not on a gun. There was a slight breeze from right to left. Shot off my knee from FT position.

I have heard this so many times. Yet, when folks come to FT matches with their 100 yard wonders, they cannot hit that 1.5" hit zones at 50 to 55 yards. Hmmmm?

Lots of talented tuners here in Alberta. Put a call out if you need help with an install/tune.

The TX200 is literally an improved version of the HW97, both great guns, but the TX simply outshines it comparatively. Centralized transfer port, rotating piston, piston/comp tube bearings, nicer stock...Easier to work with if you get into serious modifications as well.
