Welcome aboard Brice. The M11 sure has some positive feedback. Let us know how it does for you. There are quite a few members around your area, hopefully some will chime in on spots to stretch your distance. Do you have an indoor or outdoor space for trying them out?

i often set up in my basement for some short offhand target (under 10 yards i would guess) and shoot the occasional rat in the chicken coop with the 1322. the m11 is still in the mail from canada shooting supply. they currently have a clearance sale on that i could not pass up!

Welcome to the forum Brice!

You're among good company here. The M11, especially the MkII version, is an exceptional PCP rifle for the money, and a great way to get started! What will be your primary source of HPA?

Looking forward to your future CAF contributions.

Cheers!

Welcome, Brice. I also have an Artemis M1 in .25. Seems to be a good rifle.
1st picture big bore 200 meter range - my Sako A1 in .222 rifle on the far bench - 8-32X M4200 scope(long one).

2nd picture, is M11 .25 on the Bench Rest in the small bore range.

I was the only one there, both times.
Range is open, did not close.

killer setup daryl! looks like we have similar taste! I also have a tikka t3x stainless in 6.5 creedmoor with a vortex diamondback 4-16x42 here's my local 200 meter range. unfortunately there now closed until further notice :(
For now I ordered an air venturi G9 hand pump, I will likely get a hpa tank of some flavour in the future but for now i will stick to the pump. I am young carpenter and not afraid of a little work for some fun!
