I have Hector's accurized versions on all my TX200 rifles. I am using scopes that are for the most part irreplaceable, like the Premier modified Leupolds, so I just want to be sure the scope lasts. Off the shelf, these mounts have too much movement, leading to POI shifts; found that out the...

Mine is starting too move some and before it gets to far along, I am going to fix it. I am going to locate the exact spots the grub screws hit the lever and use a small sharp drill to create a hollow for the grub screw to grad into. Seems simple enough and I hope it does the trick. Not...

Cliff is humble and modest. He does know what he is talking about when it comes to the TX. Tim

In FT competition, I shot PCP for about 16 or 17 years. I shot Daystate, Ripley, Walther, Theoben, ld/SS, USFT and Steyr. I picked up a TX200 Mk2 about seven years back and transitioned to Springer over the next couple of years. Now I pretty much shoot the the three TX200 rifles I have set up...

Brad is a real innovator for sure. When he has an idea, I always pay attention, right back to when he had the plans for the wooden targets with big metal washers for hit zones. I still have a couple of those around. His self resetting targets were also awesome.

I know what you mean. Sometimes the paddle just cannot come forward enough. I have done the same as you describe. I have not taken that target to the club yet where I have all the hardware to replace the rivets on the linkage and the washer you describe. Not doing that just makes it certain...

That tab, I just bend right out of the way as it is redundant with the spring installed. I have always found the tabs problematic. I also left the stud on the back to serve as a stop for the paddle. I drilled a different hole to attach the reducer to the front.

All I shoot is 12 ft/lb and they have all been fine. This one will get tested and used in our next match. The white in the back works very well too. Face will be painted white or yellow depending on which lane it ends up on. Paddle will be black.

Do you ever install a torsion spring on the main linkage bolt to put back pressure on the faceplate. I have done this on Diana/Remington targets and it makes them much more reliable. I just bend that little tab, that holds the bottom of the paddle, out of the way. The reducer on the front and...

Since my main interest is field target, I do all my zeroing, pellet testing and the like from the seated FT position. I shoot three TX200 rifles, one HC, one regular length Mk3 and a Mk1 SR. I cannot remember the last time I used a bench or other support. On a shooting day, which never...

I do not know if tuning an already accurate gun, like AirShot has, actually makes a gun more accurate. I do know that my 22mm piston kit from Tony L. makes it easier for me to shoot accurately. The stroke is quite short, like the old 12 fpe pistons, and the piston is lighter as well. I feel a...

Hi Garrett. Has there been any decision or discussion on the total number of participants for the match? Tim

Unfortunately, I have not had direct contact with Hector since before COVID. I hope he still modifies them, but only he can say for sure. I hope he chimes in. Tim

I found some very large (10") popsicle sticks in a dollar store and picked up a pack. I have been using a very fine marker to put an intricate design on it and using that and the grain of the wood to focus on. This year, I am going to get string that can be frayed into very fine fibres and...

I would like the FWB 300S Universal as well, but since I shoot FT and not 10 M, it would be amazing at between 10 and 11 FPE. I shot mine at 8.5 fpe and even won a couple of local matches with it. Tim

What would one want a jacket to do other than add stability? One or two more points is often the difference between first and second. I use a Benke jacket by Anshutz. I ordered it from Krale for a decent price and I like it. Tim

There is still an absolute cutoff, it is just 2% higher than the stated maximums for the classes. You can still be DQ'ed for being over. Do you think some people will set their guns to 925-930 fps with the 10.34 pellets? I bet they will. Absolutely agree with setting up the gun with a...

Not sure I understand this 2% variance. Why not just publish the 2% over velocities as the max and if you are over, you are disqualified. Of course you could do the same thing with the 20 ft/lb and 12 ft/lb limits and make it real simple. People will just tune to a safe level below the limit...

Get your ZR mounts from Hector at Connecticut Custom Airguns, after he has accurized them. No wiggle, no point of impact change and have never stripped a screw. I have three TX200 rifles and they all wear Hectors accurized mounts. I do agree that the use of a torque wrench is a necessity to...

Is there a reason why you want to switch to brass? Tim
