John .. excellent target.

I had to look up your rifle to see what it was. I like it that is a beauty!

You are knocking on 200. Keep up the good work you're doing well.

Interesting butt stock on the recoiless 75.  I had to look it up too!

That's beautiful, Charlie.  Glad to see another springer in the mix!

Thank you Rion!  I do enjoy shooting the TX 200 and Daisy 753. I've got two other top notch (FWB 601 , Anschutz 801) rifles that need maintenance done on them, just need to figure out where to send them.

Motorhead and Hector are pretty active here and likely know their way around them.  Not sure if John from PA is still taking tune jobs.  You probably know all this, but just in case!

Just getting this in at the last minute. I feel like a student again waiting until the last second to get my term paper turned in. I shot this again with my Walther LG400 and shot it standing free hand with aperture sights. I did try a new pellet this week. I used the H&N Excite Econ II. My score was a little lower this match than last, but that’s me not the new pellet. Those Excites actually do very well in this rifle.
