Just received BRK Ghost HP .25 from Atlas Airguns. Purchased it on Thursday early morning and got it today Saturday in 3 days. Absolutely awesome rifle pushing 70+ fpe easy and I didn’t have to do anything, unlike my Impact MK 3. Straight out of the box, it’s accurate and powerful. Customer service at Atlas with Tristin was fast and reliable. Awesome dealer. I’ve purchased and own 12 high end PCP rifles from various dealers and Tristin is on the top notch for sure. Utah Airguns and Ben at The Pellet Shop, you guys are awesome as well.

OAL is 32 inches. I'd prefer to shoot it without the moderator as it would be even shorter and much more wieldy, but it's a bit too loud for my backyard shooting sessions. And I think I'm going to remount the Bug Buster scope on it for even greater weight savings. The Vortex Diamondback that's currently on it is not needed for the shooting I'm doing with it. With the Bug Buster set at its maximum magnification level at 9X, I can hit the very tip of a palm leaf at 43 yards. I think that's good enough magnification for me.

Same here...not only that these days with all the external adjustments going from high- low power with a twist of a knob depending on requirements is great. Not to mention barrel swaps on the same rifle in minutes.. I personally utilize it and love it.

Congratulations on the new Ghost. I have been hearing good things about the platform so far. Hopefully I can test one out in the near future.
Tristan is the real deal too! Good guy
loves the industry and believes in the products. He has been working really hard under & over the radar. (Atlas Airguns Podcast, etc) Happy to see a satisfied customer, and I’m happy to support him in his endeavor.

Another shout out for Tristan. I bought my .22HP Ghost from him since AOA didn’t have stock when I was ready to buy.

Got my 25 cal ghost from atlas today pretty happy except not finding a slug tune quickly but it sure shoots pellets well. Tristen was prompt and easy to deal with. Happy with my purchase

I replaced mine on Foghorn with the 25mm Huma gauges (the silver-colored ones) since the OE gauges are hard to read and the range from 100 to 250 bar is VERY small, maybe 90 degrees? I actually made that comment about cheap inferior gauges on the BRK Ghost and the Delta/Alpha Wolf when I was looking at the Ghost at EBR this past year. I asked the owner of BRK/Daystate (Italian Gentleman that also owns many other firearm companies in Italy) - why in such a high-quality gun would Daystate/BRK use cheap-ass 50 cent Chinese gauges? He had no good answer... It took FX years to recognize the correct answer and finally put quality gauges on their guns...

You can blow up the picture to get a better view of the gauge face.
But yes, I used the 315 bar Wika (28mm) gauge for the cylinder pressure, and the 250 bar Wika (28mm) gauge for the regulator gauge. Both are the 1/8 BSPP thread.
To change the "front" or, cylinder pressure gauge, just remove the cylinder. A small amount of air will escape.
To change the "rear" or regulator gauge, with the cylinder, still on the table (!), dry fire the gun until the receiver/plenum is empty. Then you can change that gauge.
I just used a medium sized, adjustable wrench. And yes, you can also use a "strap" type wrench. Mine is rubber .

You can always use one of those solid rubber bungie cords and the closed end of a box wrench if you can't find the strap wrench.
@Centercut - appreciate the info but I will probably go Wika. Agree with you in that the Brocock tank gauge seems a little cheesy compared to the rest of the Ghost.

Stopped by AoA on Saturday to fill my tanks. While there I learned about the Ghost! Just what I was looking for. So I went back today and a Ghost Plus in .22 followed me home. I already had the Aztec FFP scope and Huggett moderator.
I like to shoot with the tripod and found the bottom pic rail on the Ghost to be very skimpy and in a very tight space, so I had to break out the Dremel and reduce my "pic to Arca-Swiss" adapter and cut it down to 1.5" length to fit between the air bottle and the trigger guard. It all worked out. Gun is accurate and potent! I like it.

Mike... thanks for that info. Excellent! I want to do the same.
Curious as to why the 315 bar gauge for the cylinder pressure, when the rifle is designed to use 250 bar max?
Why not just use 250 bar gauges for both cylinder and regulator?
I see that Utah Airguns sells them.
