I spied him from the kitchen window.. He was galloping across the yard at a steady pace... I emediatly went for the new weapon... QUICKLY LOADED a predator in her and was at the back window within seconds.. He was halfway across the yard and was making tracks for the back fence.. Time was not in my favor. That sucker was mooving, so I hoisted the weapon and let out a shrill whistle.. He stopped in his tracks for a split second and that was my moment. Just by his size I knew it would be a difficult shot, but the tx was up to the chore.. I zoomed in on his fusebox and let her rip.. Whammo right where i was aiming a partial frontal head shot.. he emediatly went into violent convulsions and the death dance lasted for at least 5 minutes.. what a tough critter...
I causiously approched him reloaded, [ I learned that from Shadow ] and gave him a good poke. thats when he started his quiver stuff again. I was about to put another predator in him but he expired shortly after..
EYORE, NO MORE!!!!

you should take a stroll out to the hundred acre woods...you never know what quarry you'll find. good shooting, those things are stubborn.
-
Sorry guys I killed all the rats.. Now I'm having to resort to stuffed animals..
Mrs. Quest has a sharp eye on her Beenie baby collection right now... There are some real varmits there...

LOL, now that is funny. You better get out there and find some fresh meat for that TX buddy..:) or you will have to sell her for lack of use.

You interested in a trade.. I could take a walk down the dark road with your AA 410.. Now its no secret that this is the best looking TX200 in the States... We could make a deal... did my gun get thier yet....
-
Be careful, this type of critter you got, ignites easily when cooked on the stove or BBQ!! :)
Nice TX200!!
-
John, I think the TX-200 is one of the nicest looking springers made. I would own one already if it was not for the weight issue. The TX-200 weighs over 9 lbs without a scope and that is way to heavy for me. There are alot of air rifles that I would love to own butthey are just to heavy. And beleive me I would of bought a TX-200 a long time ago. I have had the opertunity to work with CDT on tuning them and I must say they are an excellent engineered springer.

What have you been feeding them donkeys? I think that one mutated!!!!
-
gene, i know jim maccari has a tune kit out for them, but why would you tune it...i've never owned one, but i understand that they are incredible rifles...is something wrong on the inside?

Dave, I think you misunderstood me. I have worked with CDT on several TX 200 tunes..:) But if I did open her up the first thing I would do would be lube her up properly and of course look things over very carefully...:)
Gene
-
but, when you pay that much for a rifle, isn't it lubed good already?...i do wonder what the tune kit does for the gun though...have you or bob put one of the kits in one of these guns??(its the tx200 survival kit.)...i'm assuming it would just be a longevity of parts, right?
