You are right about hunter class but the rules changed to 16 power. Anyone shooting open class these days only shoot 50 power scopes from what I've seen To much of a disadvantage not to. This sport has gotten so high end Last year is the last time I'm going to compete. It's become a race of the...

It's been a while since I've pulled that scope out but if my memory serves me right I had no problem at 10 yards.

At that yardage (50-55 yds) and HFT only allows 16 power max. The detail at that distance is very limiting with any scope limited to 16 power. In fact I would say something around 40-45 yards is the best any 16 power scope can really give definite yardage. That being said It does as good of a...

I bough my TX200 HC .22 earlier this summer. So far I've tried everything you have and more. I've settled on the Crosman Hollow Points. I can hold a good pattern to the far edge of my range which is 65 yrs. Less than $7.00 per 500 pellets. I can live with that. No need to look any further. I...

Vibra Tite Frequently Asked Questions: Can I apply a new coat of VC-3 on top of a previously removed fastener with VC-3? Yes. The solvent in VC-3 will re-liquify and adhere to the existing material on the fastener. After drying for 10-30 minutes the fastener is once again ready for use...

Dear PHepler, I really enjoyed your perception of HFT and the difference between .22 and .177 specifically. I couldn't have put it better myself. I have two Air Arms TX200 Springers. One in .177 and one in .22. Both are setup with great scopes that I have added large Parallax Wheels to so they...

Thanks for the story. I think I understand your mindset. I can't help you with experience but I may be able to help you with timing. Do you have plans to go to the Pyramyd Air Cup? It's not that far for you. Last year they had big discounts for the participants & guests. Plus this year is Bench...

Please share with us what type of animals you plan on hunting. What area of the country do you llve in? What will the conditions be? Desert or rain forest. All these things would be helpful for us to chime in on the discussion of the perfect hunting weapon for you. Hunting for me is squirrels...

I went last year for the first time. Lots of very nice people from all over the country. Half the reason I go is to interact with like-minded people. Nothing special about the way the event was setup. I really was a new-be. It was my first event in HFT ever. I learned a whole lot! Since then I...

DesertSilver, I do not remember specifically if I did degrease or not. However I would normally wipe the treads with Alcohol. SO I would guess I did degrease. 

Jarmstrong, I took your advice on the VC-3 Vibra-tite Threadlocker when fixing my new Air Arms TX200 HC .22. The stock front mounting screws kept coming loose. I would spend lots of time getting it to shoot pellet on pellet but then all would be lost when a stock screw would back-out. For now I...

Vibra-Tite VC-3 Threadlocker. I got it on Ebay.com. Just search for "Vibra-TITE 213 VC-3 Threadmate Threadlocker, -65 to 165 Degree F, 5mL Tube, Red" It cost me $6.29 plus free...

Thought I'd pass this on. I was having problems with my groups at long range with my Air Arms TX200 HC .22 because the front stock screws keep coming loose. After doing a whole lot of research I ordered a tube of Vibra-Tite Thread Locker and put it on all 4 stock to barrel screws. WOW! It...

I received 4 tins from P.A. this week. All were packed in foam. The shipping time was quick. Could not ask for more. I also received a package of poorly packaged pellets from Utah Airgunners a month ago. They had almost no packing material at all. They had been beat to death. I complained. They...

Wow! What a fun collection. I've been shooting springers now on and off for more than 40 years. I have never considered myself a collector. Now you make me wish I had all those rifles I gave up over the years. lol! You'll get a kick out of this. I've only had my TX200 HC .22 a couple or...

The Last target you shot I first saw in Ohio a couple of weeks back at a shoot for the first time. I'd love to have about 5 or 10 of those 3 piece/swing targets permanently setup in my back yard. They are so cool. I don't think they make them anymore. Too bad. I know that PCPs are great guns...

I'm currently breaking in my new TX200 HC in .22. The accuracy to begin with was terrible. That was to be expected. I started off shooting Crosman pellets that were lubed For no other reason than because that's what I had. After about 100 of those I switched to JSB Exacts. After about 250 of...

I have a TX200 MKIII Standard in .177 with an Athlon Optics 6-24x50 Argos BTR Scope in First Focal Plane. I shoot JSB Match Diabolo Exact .177 Cal, 8.4 Grains, Domed exclusively. It's a dream to shoot if you hold it right. I shoot HFT with it. The keys for me is to place the sticks at the bolt...

Still trying to get organized to setup my New TX200 MKII HC. Just wanted to see what you all have chosen for pellets. I'll be using it for my HFT (Hunter Field Target) Backup to my TX200 MKIII .177 and back yard squirrel duty. Looking for a mid weight of around 14 gr. for a flatter trajectory...

I'm getting ready to move my scope from my TX200 .177 to my new TX200 .22. Then mount a new scope on my TX200 .177. When I mounted it I used Blue Locktite on the tube screws and the foot screws. Am I going to regret this choice of using Locktite? Should I heat them up first befor trying to...
