Which 12fpe Rifle do you shoot?

Hello All!
I have been tinkering with the idea of setting up one of my current rifles for WFTF PCP.
I am curious what others are shooting?
Yes I have looked at GP and worlds and such equipment but im interested in everyone else.
What do you shoot thats 12fpe for field target?
Looking for rifles that are NOT Thomas, XTi50, Styer etc..
What do the non traveling shooters shoot?

I don’t shoot field target but do have a 12 fpe rifle. My .177 Crown MK2 is tuned down to 12fpe. I use it to shoot silhouette. At 12 fpe with a Donny FL Tatsu it is very quiet for shooting in my backyard. She likes any of the variants of the JSB 8.44. The actual JSB, the Air Arms or the FX branded all shoot great.

A springer will be the least expensive option for 12fpe. I am using a TX200 with tin bum tuning kit and a custom stock. You don't need the Sightron S8, I just happen to have one. One of the greats, Nathan Thomas uses an under $1000 scope on his custom stocked LGU and wins often. If it's pcp, an Air Arms EV2 can be had for about $1200.00. There are a few in your area with them, who may know about one for sale. My first 12fpe pcp was my Air Arms S500 Extra Fac. It was very consistent, and provided 170 shots on reg. It did require changing the hammer spring and hammer wieght, but it's very doable. Good luck and I'll see ya in the fall.

HW97. If you are going to shoot sub 12, might as well shoot a sproinger. I have also shot a Delta Wolf, Hammerli AR20FT, Walther LGV, Marauder, probably something else I can't recall. The nice thing about WFTF is that with a Anschutz rail and a butt hook, you can make almost anything work.
I actually have an HW97 that’s 10.5fpe I’m setting up for FT.
