Over the last two months I added to my collection in .22 a BRK Ghost and an Impact MKIII. Both have the 600mm barrel. Both came from The Pellet Shop where I received exemplary service before and after the purchase. Bin talked me through my tuning questions and I am very pleased with their performance.
Shooting the JSB Jumbo Monster Redesigned 25.4 Gr pellets, both are now slinging them within 5 fps of each other at +/- 960. Both show extreme consistency with an SD of 2 fps across 20 shot strings. Both will group 10 shots within an inch at 84 yards and literally stack pellets on top of each other at 50 yards.
I find the FX to be much smoother In the cocking cycle and to have a better trigger. I also feel the FX is more adaptable to about any airgun situation. The larger capacity magazine is nice, too.
The Ghost just feels more solid in the construction and doesn’t seem to be as maintenance finicky, but time will tell. It sure is easy to adjust the velocity up and down. The magazine can’t get any easier to load, insert, or remove.
Bottom line - both great rifles.
