Gun now performing very well but compression tube is getting scratched at the bit which shows.
There is still a fair bit of meat left on the 3 plastic studs and bearing. No sound of grinding.
I have polished scratches off a couple of times but they come back.
Any suggestions?

Re: Pellet preference ...
The best I have tried in my prosport are accupels. However, they are all different. Pellet Perfect sell sample packs of 25 pellets for about £1.50 a time. Easy to try a selection for the price of a tin. Remember to shoot several of each new type before testing , in order to get the new lead into the...

Re: TX's & Prosport
I used a piston extension. I expected a bit of a drop but not to pistol level. I can't say the gun is particularly hold sensitive. I shall probably leave it as it is now, then again..............

Re: Pro sport slings
I have attached a leather strap to the butt screws and have a leather loop on the barrel. As long as the sling is adjusted so that the barrel is above shoulder height, the loop does not slide up and off the barrel. Works very well and loop can be pulled off the barrel by stretching sling, when requi...

Re: TX's & Prosport
Having decided that I can do better than the factory, I fitted a TBT tuning and short stroke kit to my Pro Sport. The resulting power was legal for a pistol. Preload washers did little. A new spring did little. Putting the factory top hat back on and removing the short stroke seal brought things bac...

I shoot 177 because I fall asleep waiting for 22s to hit the target.

Re: Tx200hc. 22 and accupell pellets
I use them in my 177 prosport and they are brilliant. I have a 22 HW 90 and accupels are awful in it. Each gun to its own. Try Pellet Perfect on line . They do sample packs of most makes. Be sure to put several through the barrel before testing them properly as old and new pellet residue sometimes d...

Pro sport slings
As I am now in spring only mode and have to carry a pro sport around a wood I want to attach a sling. I am not keen on drilling holes in walnut so the questions are : Can a sling be attached to the butt pad screws via a leather strap without tearing screws out and can a sling be attached to the barr...
