    TX200HC power

    Hi I've just bought a second hand nearly newTX200HC and the gun has only shot about 100 pellets. As it's been sitting for a few years I've stripped it and serviced it following the recommend lube.

    I tested it and it's not pellet fussy but it's very close to the legal 12ftlb limit. There are three washers on the bottom of the spring guide can I just remove these to reduce the power or would reducing the spring be better ? Any help much appreciated

    Take a washer out.
    Mine run close from the factory, TX's and Prosports.
    Close is not over so they can stay that way.

    I've only tested with pellets from 11.9grain RWS Hobby .22 to JTS Dead Centre .22 16.08gr so a heavier pellet may take it over.

    The general rule of thumb (there is always the exception) is that lighter pellets give out more energy in springers.
    I would take a washer or two out and see if the power drops.

    if you have and JSB RS or express 13.43 / 14.3 grain, try it with them...

    I've tried JSB express RS and want to get a couple of heavier express patterns; most of my PCP's are 177 so I havn't got a great selection of .22

    The RS's are pellet on pellet in my Kral Empire x .22 at 30m and are my go to pellet for hunting, accurate, fast and very littls hold over at 40m.

    Yes, the lighter weight JSB .22, especially the 13.43 (AKA Falcon Accuracy PLus) are very flat shooting for .22
