I’m in the market for a .22 that I can get 35-45 ft lbs out of with 17-23 grain pellets/slugs. I’ve looked at the FX Impacts and they look like a nice rifle but I’m afraid it might be a little complicated for me. I’d like to have to have at least fairly good accuracy out to 100 yards. Also I shoot left handed. Is there a fairly simple solid rifle that fits what I’m looking to do. What’s you guys opinions. Thanks
What’s a good simple.22

I have looked at them and like it for the most part but from what I can see it looks like the cocking lever would be in the way for shooting left handed. Unless I didn’t see it right.

Don't let that deter you. The Taipan Veteran's cocking lever is easily switched to the left side.
I agree with Seth; the Taipan Veteran Long was the first PCP that came to mind after reading your OP.

That’s good to know. I didn’t catch on that it could be changed from side to side. I’ll look at them again. Thanks

I'm a righty, but shoot lefty. Something I've gotten used to over the years. I actually like the speed of recocking, although I am taking my face off the stock. But again, its something I've gotten used to.

You may want to look at a RAW HM1000x chassis. I've got one. It shoots great and won't break the bank. My only issue is the shot count but I haven't done any tuning except hammer spring to get the speed I wanted. Super trigger. The moderator is not pretty but I think you can get a nicer looking one.

I’ve been looking at the RAW as well. I’m curious what kind of shot count and velocity you’re getting.
On the Taipan I see the cocking lever is back further than most does that make it uncomfortable to cock? I appreciate all the options and information.

Check out the Daystate revere you can get it in a left version and they shoot very good. . In my opinion a very good looking gun

Don’t forget to look at the RTI Prophet. I can’t speak to the prophet 2 but the prophet is simple, reliable, accurate to 100 and has lever on left.

I have the Taipan Veteran .25 and shoot left handed. I like having the lever in the back. Very ergonomic for a lefty.
