It seems the TX200 is getting an update. I believe thus is coming from the UK shooting show.

After analyzing the picture, looks two power to choose... Standard power is about 14j, and high power is on 22J...

22J is about 16fpe, making 177 close to 1000fps... But looks not much higher than the current one, right?

Or.... It will be easily to switch between these two power settings?! (like the external regular on a PCP?! That will be much interesting on a springer~ [emoji38])

Pretty tight lipped as I can find no leaked information....I did however scrolled a UK board and the members don't seem to be happy with it.

They already cost too much and this will put it over the top......I wonder if this is a photo shop job to get folks going? :lol:

Probably dressing up the existing action with a more functional stock.

The laminated stock looks very sweet! The bottom rifle appears to be a lefty version. The TX-200 is already offered in more than one power level. Non-adjustable without spring and possibly piston changes.... 495fps, 12fpe, full power.

It would be nice if they made the stocks available to retrofit the older rifles. I'm sure the actions haven't changed dimensionally

Right on, that looks to be the one? By the looks, could the underlever be equipped with a new magnetic catch? :supz:

They were complaining about the cheek pieces, overly heavy laminate stock on an already heavy rifle and a price increase ($1200 was mentioned but I’m not sure the currency), this was on the air arms Facebook page

If 945L is the amount in British Pounds (I might have heard her incorrectly) that's currently, tonight, $1,533.73Cdn.

You heard right and that will be the starting price, laminate will be more.

Now, if it is tuned to perfection and no need to install various spring kits then it could be worth it?
Heck, the 54 Airking Pro are 1,200 bucks.

Adjustable, cheek, butt and magnetic catch....What's not to luv?

Yeah - FX Classic is what I would be buying at that price.

Prices in GB are much higher than here, even on products made there. Buying TX from England has never made sense, unless it is something you cannot get here. When the TX200 was about $750 here, it was about 700 pounds there. I think it will be at least $1000, but I certainly would not pay more.

If the stocks come at a reasonable price, that will be a huge seller in my opinion. Since they have not changed the action, one would have to assume the stock will fit all existing TX200 rifles. If the price is not silly, I would be interested in a stock.
