Air Arms MPR is used in target sprint.
BSA has Scorpion Cadet.
Both nice intro rifles. You could look for a used S200 and put open sights on it (or a T200 if you can find one).
I assume you aren't after a 2K high end model?
Good used PCP match rifles seldom come up for sale - but they may be a little too big and heavy for a 12 year old in any case?
The alternatives mentioned in the last post are a good option to start with and used examples are also more likely to be found - and at a more affordable price too!

If you can find a Gunpower edge it'll fit the bill for size and weight.

Might be hard to find and not PCP, but there are two recoilless junior guns I would go for. FWB300 Junior, or Original 72. Both designed for juniors and recoilless so easy to shoot
I have a really nice FWB 300 Junior and agree that it is a lovely gun to shoot that works well for the younger person - as well as those of us that are getting on a bit and appreciate a lighter weight rifle to heft about!
My restored Junior is about to return to its previous owner but I admit that I will miss it as it is a lovely target rifle to shoot and own - but finding a good example at a reasonable price will not be so easy - they never were very many of them made and they have now become quite collectable too!
