Well, also depends on what your priorities are and what you like I guess. Bullpup or not? Wood stock or metal/tacticool? electronic or mechanical? Lots of it is taste/preference but you also wanna like the thing, right? That said, BRK and Daystate are not mid range but since you’re benchmarking against an impact:
Ghost if you want a bullpup, delta wolf if you want it to be electronic.
Wolverine if no bullpup and Woodstock / red wolf if electronic. There is a sweet red wolf deal in the classifieds right now if you’re looking for a .25:

If you want to stay a little lower in terms of price, daystate huntsman revere is real nice, so is the BRK sniper. Another one to consider is a Taipan Veteran, really really nice bullpup. People really love there Uragan 2s as well but I never shot one personally.
All of the above are amazingly accurate, at least all I have encountered and/or own. Two things to remember: budget doesn’t stop at the gun, a good gun deserves good optics. And you’ll need an air source. Meaning you probably shouldn’t spend more than 60-70% of your overall budget on the gun to leave room for a scope, rings and compressor, probably a mod as well.
I have read reviews on lots of guns but maybe I have read to many. Mostly would do target shooting up to 100 yards and some bird hunting. Thanks for the input.
