Congratulations! Your Ghost is one slug shooting machine, nice group!
thank you mate. you can feel the riffle wants to breath more . it's at 145 bar and it kicks like a shotgun with the powerwheel at number 8 these multicaliber guns get very stressed with the .177 needle holes. all the calibers come with the same internals and reg pressure

Hopefully one day soon plenum sizes will be dictated by caliber sizes (think efficiency manufacturers), with of course the ability to enlarge or shrink for caliber changes!
 
@SorenDrost might be able to share a little knowhow on the .177 / 4.5 mm ghost, as i recall he have one of those too, or have handled one for sure.

Yeah the small caliber are a bit funny to work with, seeing others with the same gun but a larger caliber get smacking power 2-3-4 X higher, and also reach much further with what look to be more ease.
I am pretty sure if i was able to shoot .22 / 5.5 mm i would also shoot pellets a lot more CUZ PPL seem to do 100 yards just fine in .22 with pellets

The original hammer in my FX Maverick is quite small and it do not allow for very much power / speed with heavier stuff, but i also have a sneaky feeling it is a SUB 12 rifle that was hastely converted and dropped on the Danish FAC market,
So i have the Huma power kit with 2 brass hammers and a spring + pin probe, and of course dual transfer port.

Just put the heaviest hammer in the Maverick, CUZ i am now at 150 BAR on the regulator to be able to push 20 and 24 grain slugs at worth while speeds.

Friday + Saturday, well at least one of those seem to become a summer day, so 25 deg C or warmer, but so far the number of those we had i my area of the small country can be counted on 1 hand, " summer " been very spring like just 2 - 3 degrees warmer, but lots of clouds and also rain almost every day.

very bummed out CUZ it was the same Weather last year aside for May was quite warm for a spring month.


I think we might actually be able to have our delayed 4 of July chill out, the fire pir are for sure topped up and just need 0.5 L gasoline to get the wet wood there going.
I better remind my M8 to make some ice cubes for our whiskey

I have been shooting the BRK Ghost .177 HP since it was released in October 2022 (y) :) 🎯

Have shot it in the carbine and standard configuration and also tested it with the 28" slug barrel as part of process of finding the best profile for the barrels (y) :geek: 🎯

where i live (cyprus) a .177 is enough ,as the biggest animal we have for hunting is the crow. and with 45°c in the summer i dont even want to walk 50 meters to retrieve what i shot :). 16grains is the maximum of what i want to shoot to maintain the longevity of my air riffles and my accuracy due to recoil. if this riffle had a bit more airflow so it would not bounce so hard it would be the the optimal airgun. and for the price i paid trust me i do not want to buy anything extra for it for a long time . i shot quite a few airguns and the best so far was the RAW hm1000 with the second place going to the Ghost
