Depending on what type of target shooting near you. Field Target? get a TX or HW 97, Silhouette? get a Beeman R9 or a HW 50, 10 meter? FWB 300.
The only ones suitable for most air rifle type hunting is the Beeman R9 or the HW 50 (lighter and easily shouldered)
If it was me. I would get two air rifles. One for competition and one for hunting.
If your budget is limited, get the R9.
Currently, there are more quality springers vs gas rams. Plus the advantages of a gas ram are easily mitigated if you know the limits of your springers.
If you were thinking of doing this with those big box springers/gas rams...Norica, Gamos, Crosman, Hatsan etc, good luck. I'll let others with more positive experience with these products guide you.
