Unfortunately, a thumbhole is not permitted.
Stock: A hunting style stock; thumbhole-type stocks are not permitted. Attachments, either removable or permanent, are not permitted.Swivels and slings are permitted, but slings may not be used for armsupport in shooting. Dimensions may not exceed those described in3.1(d).
Anschutz 54 based models are excellent for Silhouette. That is what I have. 64 is certainly ok to get started.
If the rules seem pretty arbitrary, it's because they are. LOL Most of the rules were created to prohibit a specific 'angle', someone trying to gain an advantage.
I would encourage you to go to a match and find someone there to guide you.
There is an excellent group of people shooting Silhouette in Pe Ell, Washington. I can probably get you a name and phone number.
Check out Handy link to NASSA site and Handy link to Steel Chickens smallbore forum.
I never shot Hunter Rifle, only Standard, because I did not like the 2.5 lb trigger and the scope height limitation.
