I’m 7 weeks in on my wait for a left handed TX200 and am getting everything together for the optics setup.
Already received the Vortex scope, Burris rings with inserts, and I now need a picatinny base.
I am eyeballing the BKL unit with 6 mounting bolts to hold eveything in place, but I’m curious if it will truly hold without slipping since it has no recoil stop.
I currently have a Gamo Bonehunter .177 that I’m running a UTG mount on and that sucker won’t stay put unless the recoil pin is in place, so I’m leary that the BKL will suffer from the same creeping issue.
Having said that, I like the idea of not using a recoil pin since the one on my Gamo has peened the hole in the receiver that the pin rides in and I would very much like to avoid that with a new $950.00 rifle.
Many thanks in advance!!
