I have a Daisy pellet rifle from CMP I bought for one of my children. It's approximately as loud as a semiautomatic 22lr with a suppressor, but it is not 100 yard gun.
It's pretty accurate in my living room (50 feet from one end to the other), and I can keep it on a soda can at 65 feet outside. I've killed pests at a bit past 80 feet, but at that distance the drop was several inches; the experience is comparable to shooting a rimfire at 100 yards.
This daisy even has an OK trigger.
For situations in which the power of a 22lr is out of the question (admittedly a very small niche) it's a reasonable answer. As to noise, I've seen that some air rifles incorporate suppressors, but I've never seen one used.
