Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in
I've got a Prosport, TX and TX HC all in .177
The Prosport is by far and away the best looking springer I own (and there's a lot to choose from!) but getting the same level of accuracy as the full length TX is a bit harder. Needs a lot more concentration. Round an HFT course I would probably lose 2 or 3 extra points with the Prosport just because you have to be more switched on to get the best out of it.
Depends what your priorities are. If I could only have one springer and didn't shoot competitions, it would be the PS
Cheers again... yet more food for thought.
This is the crisis I knew had to come, Distroying the balance Id kept.
Turning around to the next set of lives, Wondering what will come next .
In my eyes the Prosport is one of those luxury "Investment" type rifles, it's going to do the job and it's as beautiful as hell but it's one of those rifles you buy when you have everything else and you just want to spoil yourself with something special.

I'm afraid I don't have everything.. far from it.
As was said the pro sport is a beautiful rifle.. it's just that everyone seems to agree that the main 2 are the hw97 and the tx200...
Either way I'll need to put in some practice.

Try not to be shocked by the shot cycle of any of the choices. You are used to a pcp and there will be absolutely no comparison to the springer. I have many TX200's and all are pretty calm as springers go, but when I shoot a pcp and then pick up my springer, it feels very harsh indeed. I once had a day long shooting session with an old Pro Target, an Air Arms pcp, and it took me a week to begin to feel that my TX was smooth again.
