I have a few airguns... rifles and pistols, in both pump and CO2.

I'm thinking about getting my first PCP (pre charged pneumatic). Probably a .177 rifle. Intended purpose is quiet (neighbor friendly), accurate target shooting in the backyard.

I would be filling from a bottle, and I'd probably prefer something with a magazine, although single shot loading wouldn't be a deal breaker.

I'm leaning toward a Gamo or Diana, but I'd consider anything with a trusted positive review.

Any suggestions?

We're low key here - Red Ryder BB Gun.

I built a BB gun shooting gallery in my crawlspace - 23 year old nephew texted me to tell me to make sure it's ready to go on Thanksgiving.

In reply to Datsun240ZGuy :

I actually had a 38 foot .22 range in my basement for a few years (I used pennies for targets), but the dog has pretty much ended that. The ping of pellets into the trap set her off now, so I need to move outdoors. But even Super Colibri .22s (primer only, no powder) are a little too loud in the backyard for the neighbors.
