    I was massively into field target for many years, as well as varmint hunting. I've owned pretty much all the airguns mentioned and all have their place. The only rifle I truly wish I kept was the mighty RWS M54 air king. It is the only springer capable of a true 100m MOA 5 shot group. Apparently the target hunter is capable of similar performance. Know this - they murder anything but a fixed power scope. Must be AG rated. The rws 52 doesn't have the recoil negating rail system. Use rws barracuda 21gn pellets or the stoeger xfield equivalent. A PCP is not the same as a .22lr like many believe. It has 35 of ft/lbs of power compared to 500 ft/lbs. That allows you to kill rabbit near your house. Piece of mind that you aren't going to accidentally send a projectile off the property.
