  1. I think the extra weight of the TX helps with the recoil
  2. Agree with that cause mine still has quite a thump to it lol
  3. Not at all mate....i love shooting with a recoiling rifle...but for those guys who love the pcp but carnt afford a full set up that would be ideal.........i love the open sites though...but why not have 2 TX200's one with v-mach and the other with this no recoil system....best of both worlds methinks lol Cant afford a pcp but can afford a springer + post it to Greece + the conversion ? I think its one of those things, the technology is out there to do it but apart from the novelty factor there is no need for it. At the THL meet i shot Marksmans tx200 and that hardly recoiled i c

  9. Welcome to THL mate...im sure someone will help you out once you have insurance mate
  10. Sometimes I think though that the weight is a help. I have a BSA supersport that hardly ever goes out and doesnt group that well for me, but when I borrow my dads HW35 which is about 30 years old and never had much done to it, it is as accurate as anything. The extra weight just makes it feel better for me. I agree i find the weight helps when aiming...i also find it more controlable
  11. Indeed mate.......a decent spring rifle will match any PCP in the right hands.....multishot pcp's are ideal for quick fire ratting but for bunnys that come in singles then its a springer for me lol.....i sound like fkin victor meldrew lol
  12. They way it should be mate.....Everyone should go Old School lol
  13. Na you wont mate...the TX is a beauty of a rifle but im biased lol...i love mine more than the wife....but dont tell anyone lol...but alas i only have mk2
  14. WTF DEFRA want to do that?........whats this once great country of ours comming to
  15. Dont get me wrong pcp's are fine ive shot a few of my mates but i never get same buzz when dispatching a rabbit at 40yds than i do when i do same with spring rifle......Love your kids statment.."Wouldnt that be boring".....lol

  20. Not better but as good as mate....you can consider the MK1 TX200 or the HW35 both lovely rifle and in that price range if going second hand
  21. Shooting with a springer is so much more rewarding mate...seems your kid has that sussed already....good on him......i never want to move to the darkside i will stick to my springers I think that no-one should move onto live quarry with a pcp until they can do it with a springer......more about your marksmenship with a springer or im maybe old fasioned lol Sorry not just springer but what i meant to say was recoiling rifle
  22. Welcome to THL mate...that is a great offer pal but do yourself a favor mate and make sure who ever comes has insurance to cover any mishaps....there are plenty of folk on here from your area im sure someone will help you out soon enough
  23. Could be one of a few things mate...have you tried to tighten the the trigger?.....also the safty may not be completely on or off kind of stuck between on and off somethime cr@p can build up and stop the spring from hitting the catch
  24. No camera's at ground for match but here is online radio to listern to it http://www.abc.net.au/local/players/internet_radio.htm?streamFile=itinerantone&streamTitle=Brumbies+v+Wales
