    First rock chuck of the year with the TX200

    Today I was home and I walked outside to the garbage can. A farmer down the street stopped and sounded mad. He said why haven't you been shooting rock chucks at my place? I said because you haven't asked me to! We both laughed and he asked me to come over to see where he needed help. I was sitting in my truck when one ran across the bottom of his yard and into some old equipment. He said show me what you got. I ranged it at 42 yards set the come up to 4.2 MOA and sent it. Right through the brain and he never knew what hit him.

    My rifle is an Air Arms TX200. 22cal
    This one is a walnut stock. They run about 700 dollars. The scope is a vortex Diamondback tactical 6-24x50.

    The barrel has a shroud and it does have a silencer. That said the spring is louder than the shot.

    As mentioned in other posts, the AA TX200 is about as good an airgun (springer) as you will find!!

    Just saw my first chucks today here in Pocatello.
    Those who choose violence as a first option are typically confronted by somebody else using violence as a last resort.

    Live a good, honorable life. Then when you get older and think back, you’ll enjoy it a second time.

    Do not confuse my being polite for weakness.
