    Rti priest

    Has anyone used one of these? They look a very useful gun! Similar to the fx range. What’s the accuracy/ consistency like? And are there any problems? I fancied a fx the other year but with the amount of problems they have it isn’t worth it for me

    I have just bought a .22 from B.A.R and so far so good, only shot a couple of tins but it's as accurate as my HW100 and fun to use..

    Have you had it over the chronograph? If so what’s it like
    What does the build quality feel like compared to the hw100?

    Mines doing 11.6 with JSB 15.89 so thats spot on, difficult to compare to the weihrauch really as it's just so different, the HW feels so solid and the finish is superb, the Priest is totally different, not in a bad way, but the finish is all well executed and feels solid enough...I suppose in the same manner as a sporting bolt action full bore would against a military rifle,both will do the same job but have a different kerb appeal.

    The straight pull action is really great on the Priest and its nice and quiet to shoot.. I had an FX Impact and it was total garbage compared to the priest and £700.00 more expensive... like I said I have not had it long but so far I am a happy man..

    I've got my .22 now. Quality is excellent. I put it over the chronograph and variation over 10 shots was 6 fps. I've bought a cf bottle and will be fitting that shortly. With a hw mod on it is probably the quietest gun I've come across...I'm going to explore the huggitt. Trigger is light and consistent.
    In the future I'm sure someone will come up with a rubber butt pad bolt on.

    Nope. My local dealer. I've just bought a remote hose setup to have a play.

    No Aaron wheelers in Brighouse. I'm not in any clubs. I'm sure we can sort something.

    Yep I've upgraded the grip to a hogue one, I'm just sorting out putting the CF bottle on. Trigger is very good. Need to buy an extra mag or so.....
    I had a number of average pcps and decided to sell the lot and get the priest. I did as much research as I could first, but I think people have been wary as it's new and nearly half the price of the Impact...."so surely it can only be half as good"?....
