My TX-200 needs a new 1 inch tube scope

In that price range, it's hard to find a quality scope. 

Sadly, my TX200 currently wears a UTG Swat. I use the compact 4-16. It's short enough to not obstruct the breech when I load.

It's an 'okay' scope, but I do like that it's practically bullet proof. I feel good about how durable it is for springers, and I got it from Baker in your price range. But, the glass may not be any better than what you have. The fast focus ring did help a lot from when I first pulled it from the package. 

Good luck!

I run hawke's airmax line on my springers, specifically the 2x7 and 3x9. For the money it is decent glass and they are Springer rated so several years in I haven't rattled them to bits yet. Only thing to watch is the reticle is very fine and can go AWOL when looking up into trees

Too bad I'm not a righty. You're looking for a scope. I need a Lucas Parsley ambidextrous FT stock. If you happen to have a green LP laminate FT or any ambidextrous TX stock you can have all 5 extra scopes and the Tyrolean!! Lol
If you need one you can borrow one until you can save for the scope you really want is within your range. Just trying to help. 

I would look into the hawke vantage....that tx will not break a vantage 

i called hawke and asked about using their vantage 4-12x40 AO on my diana 34 and he said they would honor their warranty on it but he highly suggested i use something from their airmax line . i had a hawke Varmint 6-24 SF on the 34 for a few years and the rear eye bell became loose and wouldn't tighten . i contacted hawke 2 falls ago and sent them the scope with a $10 MO and 7-8 days later i got a brand new vantage 6-24 SF . it lives on my .25 Gauntlet now . hawke really impressed me with their service/support ! but my vantage will never be used on a springer . 

I broke 2 vantage scopes on a springer. Not recommended. Airmax or something else

I run a Hawke Vantage 3-9x40 scope on my .22 TX200 and it is doing great. I also have a .22 Diana Model 48 and a .22 Diana 460 Magnum, the TX200 is my best shooting springer, no doubt about it. The 460 broke the Vantage scope I put on it, but both my other springers have Vantages on them and they are still doing fine. I put another Vantage back on my 460, but first I placed one of those Diana NR Bullseye Scope mounts (made for a springer) on the 460 and that scope is doing fine at this time - the mount appears to be doing what it was designed for.

This may be a bit above your budget but this https://us.hawkeoptics.com/airmax-30-sf-compact-4-16x44-amx-ir.html scope has been excellent for about 1K shots. My wife likes the IR feature which has 6 brightness settings. I will also add that Hawke CS is very good if ever needed and I rate them right up there with LL Bean! This is the scope on my HW95L.

Deerstalker, what mounts are those, and do they have the pin in the bottom on the back mount? Or does one even need that pin?
