    Hi there and welcome. Im from greenock and I am surrounded by farm's I have visited over a dozen And still no permission I dress well im always polite but still nothing. Some farmer's just moaned about people using dogs on their land to kill the rabits and deer Others just did not want shooting on their land. I am new to hunting so I have lots to learn. I will try further. away from where I live in the hope I can get something. I hope uou have better luck than me Cheers David

    Si Im Leaning towards the hw97kt .I'm asking all the tx200 questions to make sure I get this right There is sfs tune fans and they seem to love tonys work. Then theres others who just love tx200. Why vmach a tx if they shoot so sweat I know you tune a hw97 because they are not perfect When they leave the factory. I must admit I like the look of the tx but its the best performance that im after. Is there a big difference between a sfs tuned 97 and a home tuned one with a vmach kit fitted I have shot a home vmach one it was nice but still had a bit of kick What's the main difference

    Thanks for the replys Would fitting a vmach kit to the tx make it a better rifle than a sfs s2 97kt It would make the 2 of them the same price . Or is a sfs s2 tune just something special and nothing can touch it.

    So you think the tx is a better rifle then. You are the first to say you prefer the tx over the sfs 97kt. I have a lot to think about I have till Friday. Which one is the better build quality best bluing ect

    If i buy it you are more than welcome to have a go . The hw97kt stage 2 is costing me £370 the tx200hc is £300 At those prices does that make a difference. Which one would hold its value better in the long term.

    Some people at our club swear by the uk neil air strippers they seem to tighten up there groups quite a bit After 35 yards some peoples by half. They say the key is setting them up right as the internal cone can adjust upto 13mm you must find the right Distance for your gun
