I have a sub 12. .177 Prophet. It's Lightweight, extremely accurate and very well made. When I chronoed mine, I got 4fps total spread across two magazines. The trigger is awesome, straight out of the box(unlike my Ghost). Just like the priest, the prophet is very easy to work on. For me, the only annoying thing is that the magazine placement is exactly where my cheek weld is. I am therefore fabricating a curved cheekpiece to fit. Also mine isn't keen on JSBs or QYS. It likes Barracudas. Its a difficult choice between it and my Impact.
For a rifle in this category, it's quite neat and tidy, and i like it's lines. Sometimes tools like this look like some crazy inventor has emerged from their shed, and there is hardware in odd places, disjoointed lines where bottles meet the body, etc. This looks pretty slick and no nonsense.
@@simonnoble7589 Yeah. This one is truly nice in so many ways. Feeling a bit better now. We had a small epidemic of nausea/vomiting and diarrhea that started last weekend and lasted for many days. All caught from daycare last week of course.. So been spending much time at home lately. But better now again. How you been?
@@brorjordas1979 Sorry to hear you`ve all been sick ... i hope you`re keeping warm ! . IT`s a nice day here , but windy . sunny spells and 12c .... yes the rifle is brill in every way ... almost space age looking . iam doing better at the moment . been shooting on range this week ... take care 😃
@@simonnoble7589 Been good once again (health-wise good - but I'm now a bit depressed because my beloved Sig Virtus broke yesterday morning..😞😞😞). -5c yesterday, but apparently it is gonna drop to -15 or so quite soon. Will see. Not a fan of em massive colds - but hopefully it would not snow anymore. Came down 20-30cm of snow last weekend..🙄
HI ANDY , how are you ? . you`ve brought us another fab rifle . it`s in there with fx and such like . i love the looks , and space age apperance . thank you Andy ..... cheers Simon
Always enjoy watching your reviews!! 👍 That's a cool little rifle and although it's a little bit on the "ugly" side, that single hole in the target at that distance sure adds a whole lot of beauty to that little beast!!
Hi Andy, have loved the RTI products right from when they released the priest, in my opinion they've gone from strength to strength since then, their rifles are really well engineered and are competitively priced, but they really need to be in the higher power guise to get the most out of the rifle, great review mate ATB Dave
The trouble with the FAC version is the price , I would rather pay less money for a rimfire that would be more capable and certainly would not plummet in price when it comes to selling it on You could buy 3 Walther G 22 , for that price.
With the rexime ixia MK2 compact gaining positive momentum spending twice the amount that the ixia costs on a rifle that's very similar is a hard one , if the rexime proves to be reliable I think it will take a massive chunk of the market , brk ghost ,fx impact / maverick ,RTI priest , daystate alpha Wolf etc etc are all of a similar type , I'm watching the ixia MK2 compact closely , I think that reximex could be a game changer .
Morning all, I wonder how many fac air rifles are actually sold in the U.K. I’m guessing it’s quite a small number. Comparing this to the BSA CLX AAR special you showed us it’s seems that this is either rather expensive or the BSA was tremendous value coming in £500 cheaper with scope and silencer. The BSA is also to my eyes a far nicer looking gun. But whatever floats your boat I guess.
Not a patch on last week's gun . I bet last week's gun could get same score card at same distance . Just saying Cracking show as always Team AAR 👍👍👍😜🏴🦕🦄😁✌️🤞
Bought the mk1 after seeing it reviewed on this channel ... its FANTASTIC ... my son machined a bag rider out of billet aluminum , lots better then the plastic RTI effort , and cheaper ..
I had a priest. Sold it because of very,very loud air blow back by were u load in pellets and ur head/ear is right next to that (the breach). I was never sure?? when it was going to happen and I was a constantly worried .I sold it because I did not want to go deaf!!! .I believe its caused by u loading in the pellets right every time and that gets old fast.Also A must is a portable air compressor as ur bottle is never at 300 .I get u dont fill to 300 maybe 280.
Did you say shot count is 10 shots per fill? That means more filling than shooting in my mind. Perhaps the accuracy is there, but not worth it to me with such a low shot count.
ok, that's better then. Thanks for the reply, and I'm looking forward to the next review. I just saw your little intro to the BSA Scorpion, goof for BSA.
Nice Vid Andy.But..... I can't quite understand why anyone would need a compact Bullpup in FAC? Legal (12ft/lb) will deal with any airgun quarry out to 50 metres if you are good enough. My FX Wildcat will do the same job and I don't need to pressurise it to anything approaching 300 bar. In the UK, FAC Air Rifles do have a (very limited) useful place, but most airgun shooters will not be able, inclined or feel the need to jump through the stupid hoops necessary to obtain an FAC.. Too much of a niche market Andy. The number of UK sales will tell the story I'm sure. TTFN
for size and power it can't be beat.
Probably going to pick one up this year. 2023
@rti just got me one of these… thank Andy, as he gave me me the love for this rifle

Agree and Love mine !
Was great to catch up with you for a chat at the BSS today after traveling up there from bedfordshire. Hope you got back safe. Kerrin.
Great video Andy and good to meet you at the Shooting Show today 👍

Thanks again to Andy and crew for such a good review once again!

very clean looking but e xtreamly accurate very nice review
Always enjoy watching your reviews!! 👍

Love it!
Dumb question from a newbie but why have the whole rifle in black when the bottle at the front is much lighter almost shiny?
Good morning all
Good morning John
Morning John, great name
Sharing ... people will have to hunt for their food very soon, and the Air-Gun / Riffle will be the safest and quietest for them to have?

Looks great, but for a compact hunting type air rifle, you cant beat the classic Leshiy
beautiful 😍
Puts fx to shame, Accuracy and price!!

Lovely rifle, pitty it did have tools less adjustable power like some FAC rifles. Greatreview
Not a patch on last week's gun . I bet last week's gun could get same score card at same distance . Just saying
Cracking show as always Team AAR
👍👍👍😜🏴🦕🦄😁✌️🤞
Oh dear Prophet or vixen 🥵
I’ve just had a vixen 177 carbine nice gun pellet on pellet at 30 yards .
How many full power fac shots?! Out of that compact tank?!
What scope was used?
Sensacional
Have you ever shot a Weihrauch hw57???
I saw a P2 .177 FAC pushing a 20gr slug at 1030. It is close to 65j or about 48fpe
Bought the mk1 after seeing it reviewed on this channel ... its FANTASTIC ... my son machined a bag rider out of billet aluminum , lots better then the plastic RTI effort , and cheaper ..
Preços?
How come no UK maker is building something like this?
They do, check out BRK Ghost FAC version. £1450 in .177, .22, .25 and .30
Not for me but yeah very nice gun

o ring missing or defect?in the chamber

Nope, I said 10 shots per 50 BAR…
