You already have an NP...only yours doesn't look bad.
If you had to have one of those two, I'd say the XL...but I think there's better options for $300...

I would go with the Trail XL1100 in .22. I have the XL1500 and love it. I may be looking into getting another barrel assembly for mine in .22 just to have both!

I have a trail XL 1100 .22. It is super hold sensitive. I love the gun and it is a beast when it hits what your aiming at. But if I had it to do over again I would of gotten a Diana or something less hold sensitive.

The titan is the trail without the frills, the XL's are a beefed up build but suffer from so so trigger and all the usual China variables. Your pushing the low end German guns at the XL's price especially used, and then there is Hatsan with the same possible variables as China but better WWII T34 tank style build (not assembly at least to date). One big advantage a magnum conventional spring gun has over a magnum gas spring is the spring is progressively more difficult to cock, thats why I kept my RWS 350 and do not desire an XL...

Love my XL, powerful, and great when you hit what your aiming at, but he hold-sensitivity gets the best of me sometimes. If you want a challenge, go with an XL.

I can relate to some of the other posters conclusions above on the Benji XL 1100.
When we're hot..we're hot..and when we're not we're not, It can be a little frustrating at times.
I love mine as well though !!
..with all the tune..seal..bushings/gold trigger and scope over $500. invested.. If I were to do it again,
I'd go German right from the start.

Of course you need a third! Between the two, in your shoes I'd go with the XL. You've already got two mid-powered gas rams, and the Trail and Titan are both B-19's and practically the same gun. It's noteworthy that if I had $300 to spend on an airgun, it would not come from Crosman or Benjamin unless it were the new underlever in which case it might hehe. I've had an XL1500 in the passed. POwerhouse, and tackdriver, but too heavy and hold sensitive to make a practical field rifle. Good still hunter/ long range pester though- if you have a good hide site. Just IMHO
