In summary: It is a nice, well balanced rifle with a good trigger and a fast ish firing cycle. It is accurate, not too pellet fussy and much lighter than the FTP900. On pellets, I got my best groups with unlubed pellets.

The 800 Basic FT and 800X both use exactly the same action and in testing I suffered no POI shift, which did not surprise me.

Nice rifle, I liked it, but I shoot better with my Dominator... just, so mine went to a new home last week.
Interesting mate. I've also got a dominator lg300 and it's shoots really well. I just love the way the fwb 800 ft looks with the black stock. Must say not a fan of the woden stock.
