Glad you took my post in the manner it was intended. As a shooter I am more interested in the air rifles they were tried in and the results that were obtained using them. Were they everyday airifles as sold in gunshops at the time?

In early work Gerald used his projector but I really don't know what else was used later on, all the data and records went years ago. I used a HW35 and a Vulcan I had at the time, mainly the HW, and I have fired a few from a TX200 but not many as there are very few in existence now and many of them are slightly different, all in .22. The ones fired from the TX were coming out around 11.4FPE with a velocity loss over 30 yards of just 40ft/sec.

Interesting reading, what was the accuracy like in the TX ?
