I'm considering between these 3 regulated PCP rifles in .177 for airgun sihouette which is usually shot with 12-14FPE to avoid target damage. I'd also like to shoot a bit less power around the house if possible to keep noise down.
Stock fit for standing unsupported is a priority as is a GOOD 2-stage trigger that can be set around 1kg to match my .22lr silhouette rifle. Ideally a vertical pistol grip and high comb to match that rifle as well.

Has anyone handled all 3?

Thanks,

Grant

I hear you on the power thing. My Hatsan BT65(I think it was) running 22fpe, while extremely accurate, used to stick the
chickens into the donna conna behind the rack.

Very few guys have trouble knocking over rams when it's not windy with 10m guns and they might run <6fpe, so I definitely don't need a powerhouse.
Actually a 10m PCP that could be turned up a bit like an AA S400 or even CZ200T would work for what I'm after but they aren't exactly common or cheap. Plus a repeater would be nice.
Apparently the SPA M16 bolt is known for being sloppy. Unsure about the AV Avenger. The M11 is not as nice to use as a straight pull but supposedly very precise in operation.

Out of the 3 I only own a non pal m11, which is very quiet. The trigger is a long single stage one, albeit pretty smooth. Stock shape is not well suited for field target.

I think you can't go wrong with cz200 and a mag kit. The cz200 is pretty much a match rifle capable of delivering 12ft lb. It could easily be tuned down of course.

Is your M11 a Mk2 or original?

Interesting, they are supposed to be a 2 stage trigger
