    Hi Lads, This last week has been one of mixed emotions for me. I had to sell off my trusty TX200HC to fund my Christmas Pressie to myself, a second hand R10 .177 with a NV site, purchased off the for sale section on here. To say Im chuffed is an understatement. One of the finest stocks ive shouldered. Its very pointable and cant wait to test it on some bunnys when this snow fecks off! Having never used NV to hunt, I am looking forward to that to. You seem to get a lot of gun for the money with the R10. Will let you know how i get on in the next couple of weeks,

    Hi Mate, Should be sub 12ft lbs, best to have it chrono'd at a local shop if unsure. Regards, Mikey.

    Hi Scott, Good shooting that buddy! I would stick with the AA Fields, they obviously suit your rifle well! Best to stick with the most accurate pellet for your rifle and the Fields have more than enough power to kill humanely if delivered to the kill zone. Look at it this way mate, if you shoot it through the brain, it will die a humane death. The most accurate pellet gives you the most chance of achieving that. Mikey.

    I also use the Acme one (or at least i did before my dog chewed it into bits), I tended to put a crow deek out over a slit open bunny and try and call em in. When a crow starts cawing back, I try and copy its tone length etc. works a treat! They probably think why is that fecker repeating what I say and stood statue still!! Mikey.

    Looks sweet Bill! That stain brings out the grain nicely! Like the hamster too pal looks well, how did you atatch it? Ive been thinking about knocking one up for my HFT shooting. Thinking about a stong velcro attatchment so its easily removable when not required. Kind Regards, Mikey.

    Hi All, Sadly I am selling my TX200 HC .177 to fund a pcp. http://www.thehuntinglife.com/forums/topic/180010-air-arms-tx200hc-mkiii/ Great rifle and has served me well taking some good distance bunnys with it. Thought id give you lads on here first refusal as I know it would be put to good use before I put it up for sale elsewhere. Kind Regards, Mikey.

    Hi All, Up for sale I have my trusty Air Arms TX200HC MkIII in .177. It comes with Nikko Sterling 4-12x50 Mountmaster AO Milldot Ret with Sportsmatch Mounts. Sling fitted. And padded gunslip. Overall good condition with just a minor mark on the stock (being fussy). Great springer shame to have to sell it but needs must! Priced to sell at 250 pounds!!!

    Bsa Scorpion, either the single shot or T10, is a very overlooked rifle. Can get them second hand at decent prices. I find them very accurate and for the money excellent. Mikey.

    Same here Pianoman, AA 4.51 are the mutts nuts in my TX HC. Tried Superdomes, grouped well enough to 30yds, but couldnt quite match the AA's at 35-45. I find 8.4 grain plenty to humanely dispatch quarry. Mikey

    Hi Andy, Hope you have a cracking time pal, you may need some thermals! Where in Derbyshire you camping, im up in Buxton and there is a lot of snow about bud! Have a good un, Mikey.

    Sounds like a good day out lads! Nothing like a bit of friendly competition to keep you sharp! We put quids in at my local club, winner takes the pot, loser buys the brews! Adds to the banter as well. Mikey.

    Sweet lookin rifle Si, Been toying with the idea of a Tench regd PCP myself. I know its early doors with your Ultra, but any idea of the shot count yet pal? Mikey.

    Hi Wurz, At the minute I only shoot a springer. I haven't noticed a change in POI from difference in temperature. I have noticed however a slight change from different firing positions. Eg, when i group kneeling or sitting FT position the pellet strikes slightly higher than prone! regards, Mikey

    Hi Davy, I used to have a SP50, my mate had a GAT, we used to argue like cat and dog which was the better, it culminated in a shoot off!!! Pleased to say the SP50 came out on top Probably still knocking about at my mums, will have to try and dig it out. I would love all my childhood airguns back I used to have a [bANNED TEXT] ball with them. A Relum Tornado, brute of a rifle. Daisy 922 pump, deadly accurate and with open sites, accounted for many rabbits. And an old Meteor my dad picked up from a car boot. My first scoped rifle and again accounted for many vermin....... ah Im all re

    SPA Mate, Cracking read that mate, and really great to see you enjoying your shooting. I have fond memories of my 95k, cracking rifle! Kind Regards, Mikey.

    I have shouldered one at my local club (AT44-10), didnt get chance to take it on the range though. It was nicely weighted and felt like a solid, well put together rifle. A tad heavy as stated, but personally like it that way. Speaking to the owner, he was very impressed with its accuracy. If and when i decide to go down the PCP route it would be one i considered. Mikey.

    Sweet looking bit of kit pal, all the best. Mikey

    Nice one Bill, My AA TX HC will be sent to SFS over Christmas/New Year, have already spoke over the phone with Tony, top bloke. Must say very reasonably priced for the work he does! Only downside there is a bit of a waiting list, but then thats to be expected, I would be worried if there wasn't. Kind Regards, Mikey.
