TX200 MK3 HC gun review as promised

[Lstick235]

Well here we go as promised a review for my new TX200 MK3 HC in .22.
i have never written a review before so if this is naff then i apologise, also apologies for any spelling mistakes or errors in advance!

OK well as soon as the gun was taken from the box in the shop i instantly knew it was the gun i was buying! i love the subtle design's on the stock and the general way it looks. straight away i could tell it was a heavy rifle but i actually kind of like this feel as it feels sturdy.
I had it chronod at the shop and it came out at 11.35, i power i am very happy with!
The sight i chose was the Hawke 2-7x32 AO IR. it is not a huge scope which personally i think compliments the gun very well, it is extremely clear to look through and very easy to adjust if needed!
The important bit now, i took it out to the garden (as i have no permissions yet) to put a few pellets through her. straight away i loved the cocking action, it is easy to do yet in no way weak or shoddy, it feels very sturdy and secure. the built in safety catch is i nice feature as i personally like my thumbs and feel that i use them fairly often! had a small amount of trouble turning off the safety and taking a shot to begin with but it turned out i had just not cocked it properly! needless to say after i realised this i felt quite stupid!
As soon as i made the first shot i could feel how smooth the gun was, although there was the obvious springer recoil i would not say it was bad! as i quoted earlier the gun is on the weighty side but i am fairly small and i get on just fine with it, so again no worries there.
The grouping was instantly a good sign that she is going to be perfectly capable of dropping bunnies and anything else for that matter, the first 4 shots were within a 1/2-1in grouping, wish i would not say was bad considering i have never owned a gun before and has been a while since i last shot the one i had access to.
overall id say that this gun is well worth what i paid and i would advise anyone thinking of a springer towards it! It is a pleasure to shoot and also i think it looks smart to!
i paid new but im pretty sure you could get a used one if budget is lower! definitely worth a look for anyone!

I think i have uploaded the pictures right, if so you should be able to see pictured of the gun sight inc.
feel free to make any comments on the gun and my reviewing skills or lack of.
All the best

Thanks for sharing your new gun with us & pleased it worked for you out of the box.
I particularly like the Fish-scale Checkering a touch of quality imo

The more you use, it I’m sure the better it will feel until it becomes part of you........
