I emailed air arms about the xti-50 in December. This is the answer they gave me:
"

Thanks gonzav71,
Looks like a heck of a gun.
Now when the HFT model comes out in <20 fpe (and I win the lottery) I could have some real interest.
I had an AA S-510 Ultimate Sporter in .22.
Beautiful gun but slightly underpowered for anything 50+ yards with a breeze.

SAZ,
The XTI-50 was not designed to go above 12 FPE. It was made for World Field Target and Hunter Field Target rules (not AAFTA rules) under 12 FPE power limit.
For a slightly greater amount of money, I would buy an American made Thomas air rifle. The Thomas is made for the American market not European one.
I shot the prototype XTI-50 rifle when I shot the 2019 Worlds in England. I was really impressed with it because it comes with all of the accessories that one needs to compete in WFTF class.

gonzav,
My post was made a little "tongue in cheek" about <20 fpe.
I get it that the American market is probably not intended as their primary market for those fine looking guns.
I'll just be staying with my Red Wolf for now to shoot HFT.
It will shoot way above my (limited) abilities anyway.
Even though the Thomas combo like @steve123 has (rifle & pistol) makes me a little jealous. VERY fine "piece of kit"!
