TX200 SR

Sun Jul 03, 2016 9:44 am

Hi chaps

Recently managed to get hold of a mint TX200SR in .177 with a TbT drop-in (been looking for years!)

The stock is being changed and I've got AJP looking at a scope riser for me.

Quick question, any recommendations for guys who can service these?

They are relatively easy to service at home. Just a bit more fiddly than a standard TX and re-assembly must be done in a specific order. Chrono before you dismantle as they are very efficient and can easily go over 12ft/lb

You learn a lot about a springer if you do it yourself and save money :)

The Nyloc nuts that hold the sled at the correct tension should probably be replaced (I prefer Aerotight). The action (uncocked) should slide when the rifle is tilted to about 45 degrees.

Any scope mounts you fit need the recoil pin.

Great photo to show a comp. tube with 4 notches. Most were 3 notches evenly spaced, but the later MarkII guns had 4 notches like this SR. My SR is also more efficient than most of my other TX's. I assume the extra tight comp. tube makes power more easily.

Don't think so - I persuaded a chap who is heavily into his FT to part with it.

Just weighed it as it is in the photo - 12.5lbs unscoped! Gonna need bigger muscles....
