I am looking for a PCP .22 that I can shoot at targets (or the occasional tree rat that is chewing up my garden).
Here are my loose criteria:
1) ~$1000 budget for just the rifle, but will not be disappointed if I spend less.
2) A magazine--a side lever would be fine, but I do not want to single load every shot.
3) A regulator.
4) A decent sized tank--I do not want to be constantly refilling the tank.
5) Looks--I prefer traditional designs over bullpup. I don't mind synthetic stocks, but I do not like ones that feel too lightweight.
6) Reasonable accuracy. I have traditional firearms that I shoot when I am at the ranch so I am not particularly interested in 100 yard+ accuracy. I think I will be satisfied with an inch or so at 50 yards.
7) Relatively quiet--it needs to have or be set up to accept a moderator.
8) I am open to used rifles, but I have no prior experience to guide my evaluation of used guns.
9) I would like to keep it sub 8 pounds sans optic--the lighter the better.
Googling around, it seems like the Avenge-X with a wood stock and the larger tank, may fit the bill. Also, the DRS and Dreamline look interesting.
I welcome your input.
