Air Arms TX200 MkIII Walnut

The Air Arms TX200 MkIII in walnut is a benchmark spring-piston air rifle prized by competition shooters and sportsmen alike for its blend of timeless craftsmanship, predictable performance, and refined handling. Built around a precision Lothar Walther barrel and a finely sculpted Monte Carlo-style walnut stock, the TX200 MkIII delivers a stable shooting platform with an elevated cheekpiece that promotes fast, consistent sighting when paired with a scope.

Mechanically, this underlever single-shot rifle is engineered for accuracy and shooter comfort. Cocking reveals a sliding breech that exposes the loading port, while the two-stage adjustable match trigger provides a crisp, repeatable release that serious target shooters depend on. An automatic safety adds an extra layer of reassurance in the field or at the range. The action mounts optics on 11mm dovetail grooves (there are no open sights), so a quality scope is recommended to unlock the rifle’s full potential.

Performance is notable: in factory tune the TX200 MkIII produces competitive velocities — typically around 930 fps in .177 and about 755 fps in .22 — making it suitable for both precise field target shooting (.177) and practical small-game hunting (.22). The spring-piston design gives a distinctive but manageable feel: relatively quiet muzzle report, moderate recoil, and excellent long-term reliability when maintained properly.

Attention to detail continues through the furniture and finish. Checkering on the forearm and pistol grip improves control and aesthetics, while the ventilated rubber recoil pad aids shooter comfort. A shrouded barrel helps reduce muzzle disturbance and contributes to the rifle’s measured report.

Whether you’re entering local field-target matches, taking responsible hunts, or enjoying accurate backyard plinking, the TX200 MkIII walnut combines heritage, precision components, and shooter-focused design into a rewarding air rifle experience.
