I am giving the TX a good go. I picked one up about a year ago, and had never realy shot one much. But HW were my first love, the first good gun I got when I got into airguns.

The slimmed down version looks great, still has some meat in it so imagine she's pretty stable.
You could always add a removable / adjustable hamster to it to switch between sporter / FT mode..

I have a chunk of rimu destined for something. It may end up going on the paintball frankenstein gun if i get it going.

One more photo. It's very comfortable to shoot, with nice tight grouping in seated FT position, but I have found my standing shots are better due to a good head position, and weight distribution.

I finished the stock with linseed. I diluted about 50 ml of linseed with 100 ml turps. I used a light abrasive pad to work up a slight slurry, then stopped rubbing as it dried. I left it a couple of minutes, then wiped off any excess with a clean rag. Tis gave me a light, satin finish. After drooling over that, I left the stock for a day, then re applied more with some wet and dry 380 grit sandpaper, working up a nice slurry again. I really like the finish, it brings out a bit of depth in the grain, while remaining satin and smooth.

I used some black delrin to make feaux screw cups for the stock screws. They finish that detail just right, I reckon.
