PARDINI K10
PARDINI K!2
PARDINI K2 Air
PARDINI K2 Co2
WALTHER CPM-1 Co2
STEYR LP10
STEYR LP10
STEYR LP10 gold edition
FWB P40
MORINI CM 162 El

I have to admit that the WALTHER CPM-1 Co2 made the best score (something > 570/600)

No k58 and k60. The k60 was a good pistol, with poor o-rings! Di Donna - who used a special FWB20 with a heavy barrel - tried the Pardini k60 (the very first time his score was >580) and slowly slowly transformed the k60 into the K2.

I had a friend (we're both Italian-American photographers) who was the largest Pardini dealer in the U.S. When he would get an airgun in, he would change out (upgrade) all the O-rings. We lived near the aero-space industry in N.Y., thus were able to get good O-rings.

He went to Italy to visit the Pardini factory and Signore Pardini. He brought with him a large sack of O-rings as a gift.

BTW I currently own only two: a Walther LPM1 SSP and a SAM M10, but I've owned a variety of others.

I have two K60's and I resealed them 6 or 7 years ago. The only trouble O-ring so far is the big hard white PTFE O-ring in the cylinder.
In my experience, the K60 outperforms the K12.

At least you have the good taste to have a decent SSP in the mix.

then you will be happy to hear that for many years my personal best in official matches in my country was 560 with izh46. also with baikal i did my best ten shot string in match (97 i think ) and in practice (99 with a 9.9 to ruin a perfect score)
