I've had just about every version of the TX series there is - including a Venomised TX200SR.

They are very fine rifles and nicely engineered.

I couldn't hit a damn thing with any of them.

They just do not suit me as a shooter.

Now the HW 77/97 on the other hand, well that's a different matter - although I've never really used s standard HW as I tune / mod them or buy Venom HW's anyway. If you like the rekord trigger you should try one that's been stripped, fettled and tuned, they are wonderful and precise.

I'd agree the TX is better value though - but then this hobby / sport isn't all about value though is it?
