    My mk2 TX200. The only tuning it's had is having had many thousands of pellets though it since I got it in 1994. In .22 of course.

    I could be tempted by a venom 80 as per John Darling.

    I really like my HW35 and my HW55, but if it came down to it I'd keep the 25mm .177 HW77 'til the last.

    Toss up between my Tyrolean stocked Diana 34 and my Weihrauch HW50 (99) both in .177.. The Diana has such a great trigger but the wee 50 is right on the money.
    In.22s, probably my Anschutz 335, although I've an old BSA Mk1 Airsporter that shoots a treat.

    Tyro stocked 34? Sounds interesting. I'd like to see that. I do like the 335 as well. Good but underrated gun.

    That Diana of yours is superb mate, but then again so is your hw50

    If I was allowed to choose a rammer it would be my .177 evolution, or as my son refers to it "the gun you love more than your family." If it had to be strictly springer then it would be my hw80k with the bull barrel and the ginb stock, also in .177. Both are tack drivers and I love em

    Aye Chris thanks for your appreciative comments on my Diana 34 and the wee 50.. It's hard to choose between them.
    It' s a mutual admiration society Bud as I've shot both your Theoben and your customised 80 and they're both on the money as well. 😎
    One of the great features of the Boinger Bash is getting the chance to see and shoot other folk's rifles, all different and individual and great craic into the bargain.
