Love the video! You do a great job! I have the tx 200 in .177 cal and it is an absolute tack driver ! I like all of your old school videos! Keep up the good work!

[@jacobpaul13]

I definitely want to see the accuracy at 50 to 55yards👍

[@pedrofitter]

Ive had a tx200 for 18 years pluss still shoots like it did the day i brought it field work brill on the range pellet on pellet @40yrds I brought a .177 for hft wow weee tony leach kit fitted runs at 11ft lbs with a 8.64 pellet 4 ft spread over a 50 pellet spread

[@jamesdenny4734]

It's not supposed to close up on your fingers, but it could fail. I had a plastic plate... on the job, I ate my lunch so after washing the plate I was drying the plate. The plate slipped out of my hand hit the floor [tile over concrete] on the rim, split in half. It had a sticker when I bought it saying "un-breakable"... it can fail !... good review 👍👏

[@similaritiesendhere]

If you hold a gun properly, the barrel will point away from you naturally. That's a safety feature too. Idiots still manage to shoot themselves constantly. No amount of engineering can prevent stupidity.

[@regsparkes6507]

Great video, and as I've been 'dreaming' about owning an Air Arms TX200 for too long now, the information you've given us here Rick is really helpful. This is perhaps, the 'Rolls Royce' of spring type Air Rifles and as such I really want to own one. My only issue,.... is coming to 'grips' with the price of right around the $1000.00 Canadian dollars, by the time it get's in my hands! That's an expensive springer air rifle!

[@coprguy1]

I absolutely love my Tx200.177. It reminds of the quality and feel of the Purdey shotguns that I used to shoot trap with. I don't find it as finicky to hold and follow through with as some claim. The trigger is near perfection. I don't mind the automatic safety at all. I am waiting on a Weihrauch HW97K to come in and I can't wait to compare them.

[@donpeer4477]

I nearly bought a Weihrauch HW80 last month, but things got tight. Please share your comparison as I'm HIGHLY interested in seeing that done!

[@coprguy1]

@@donpeer4477 Hey Don, I don't do video reviews myself but I'd be glad to message you my assessment. Or, maybe I could loan the Hw97 to Rick to do a proper video review!

[@donpeer4477]

@@coprguy1 That'd be fine. I'd love to hear because, as I said, I'm shopping for one now. Rick, I think, would do a good job reviewing and comparing the two. What do you say, @airgunweb?

[@eddiecahall3824]

H&N 14.66 field trophy's!

[@JDHitchman]

Rick, try shooting the plain old Crosman Premier 14.3 pellets. The Crosman give me much better groups than anything I have tried yet out of my TX200 MK III .22.

[@russmiller4801]

Considering the many variables involved in shooting a springer: My TX200HC placed the standard Crossman 'dome' 14.7 grain pellets 1/8 th - 1/4 inch during preliminary zero at 10 yards. I'm sure 1/16 inch would be achieved with a third string on the bench. Consolidating pellets of identical / near identical weight would likely improve accuracy as well as switching brands. I plan to shoot targets 50 - 60 yards routinely with that rifle. The walnut stock has the exact same appearance as the rifle used in this video, as well as one or two clips from the UK.

[@airguns_rc]

Great video Rick. Love my TX 200 MK III in .177 caliber. I shoot dime size groups with mine at 50 yards all of the time. I shoot my two Air Arms S510XS ,177 caliber and .22 caliber in hunter field target at our 5 local clubs that we have in Ohio. I am setting my TX 200 up for springer hunter field target. Keep up the great videos Rick.

[@notmodeling8070]

If you spend a thousand more dollars on a hft stock, Tony leech kit 2qmm piston kit mine runs at 11ft lbs I've been winning club and county comps for the last 4 years,

[@andybrown8293]

Why aren’t you holding the underlever when loading?

[@markmtbrider]

A true classic.

[@casualobserver77]

Love me some underlever air guns I have a Walther LGU Varmint in 22 and it's sweet. Mine likes lighter pellets like h&n sniper light and even cheapo Crosman premier domed. Love the tx200 too

[@karinsdad1]

Hey Rick, I've been watching you since your Carolina days with the goat! The only thing I see here is that too many pcp's have spoiled the spring gun discipline out of you. Ha Ha! I have faith in you though Rick. You've come a long way and I know you'll get this right at 50 yards too buddy . I don't know if you remember this from 2012 ,but back then I had a Hatsan 135 in .177 that had a defective barrel that you traded me a .22 caliber 135 for that gun. Well, I still have that gun and with the Norma 15.9 gr pellets I shot a .449" 5-shot group at 50 yards about a week ago! God Bless you Rick and thanks for all the years you've been doing this.

[@jtownboy8221]

Good afternoon, thanks for the excellent review! Would you take the Tx200 over the Wiehrauch HW97K?

[@stewart00311]

Finally a springer

[@richardgleason5953]

Fish scale checkering. Super blueing. Super accurate. What is not to like?!

[@janivarsrvaag5137]

tums upp for air arms in 22 it s a beatiful gun

[@donpeer4477]

My TX200 in .177 generates over 13-14 FPE. So, I'm surprised that this gun (see 7:40) does the same! As for the pellets my gun likes: JSB Match Diablo Hades, Air Arms Diabolo Field (NOT heavy), and JSB Match Diabolo Exact Heavy. Each of these gives me a single hole at 15 yards and I would hope that they work well for you. Really looking forward to seeing more about this rifle. Especially, if you can get more power out of it!

[@theshootindutchman]

Good comment! Power....... that is the only Achilles heel to this and the Pro Sport 🤔I truly wonder what what would happen if A. A. put in a gas ram??

[@richardcampbell5762]

Love my TX200 HC 22CAL. Looking forward to seeing the next video. From New Mexico, Stay safe and stay blessed my friend. 👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🤙✌

[@jaretdavies1991]

great video, can't wait for more. I have the tx200hc and the pro sport both in .22 very accurate at 50 yards and worth every penny.

[@airgunecia]

most beautiful airgun in the world

[@JudahMaccabee_]

Best airgun reviewer period.

[@joshuagibson2520]

Only one thing that keeps from buying the TX 200. The automatic safety.

[@BarnyDaddy]

I have two. One beech. One walnut!

[@sawmdawnga494]

I love tx200 my dream airgun just watching now 🙂

[@heithwatkins]

Thanks for your video. I want this exact rifle in 177cal.

[@davidyummus6259]

USD$900 & you need to buy an aftermarket Tuning Kit to get rid of the Spring Twang/Buzz :(

[@eddiecahall3824]

It is nice! But if I were going Springer I would just settle for a break barrel. And probably save a few bucks in the process! Cool video tho Rick. I always like the videos! Love air rifle lead. Ed The Professional Backyard Sniper Man😎✌

[@nosherwanadill6177]

After saving some bucks...and few days after buying break barrel..u will buy fix barrel again and now u get an airgun at double price....😉😉

[@eddiecahall3824]

@@nosherwanadill6177 I am not new to this! I have hatsans,Gamos and crosmans that group just as good. For less. I also own a large variety of pcp air rifles, ranging from 177 through 20mm! All calibers made. I also own a 25 yard indoor range and a chronograph. So what is it boss that you you can possibly tell me about an air rifle??? I'm curious

[@johnwiley2114]

Love the video, where’s part two. 🥺

[@michaelvasquez3995]

I really want one but for that price i get skeptical about it but one day lol

[@joshuagibson2520]

It will last a lifetime and likely get passed down if taken care of. They are quality. Not like a cheap daisy or crosman.

[@joshuagibson2520]

Lol. Indeed that's what Rick said too.

[@DanielGarcia-zw8nx]

Does it come in a nitro piston?

[@duck1946]

The UK,s best selling spring air rile,why try and spoil it? There are at least 4 of these at my club. Quality!

[@AirGunWeb]

Agreed. I need to do some videos on the myths of gas rams and why they take things backwards. Cheers AGW

[@donpeer4477]

@@AirGunWeb I'd like to see that video, too, Rick.

[@redpillnibbler4423]

Not a criticism of you but 1 inch groups off a bench is not good enough in the hunting field - Don’t exceed the half inch group range,you’ll have more success.👍

[@bobby9823]

for that much money i think the pellet should move a little faster.

[@ts-br8hs]

You need 16grain airarms pellets

[@AirGunWeb]

Tried them. They were all over the place. Will try again with a fresh tin and we’ll see how they do. Cheers AGW

[@bigwill4284]

Sounds horrible spring twang or what 😜

[@DieselCoupe]

speak slower... I'm close to a native speaker, but you're much to fast.. not fitting the behaviour of a TX200..
