USA Hi
hi all, i’m looking around for a new pcp. need some input.
my checklist is
-shorter than 28”
-.22 cal
-should be able to send 25gr 920+fps
-decent shot count. so bottled
-pellet and slug capable
- quiet at 30-40 fpe

choices are:
-fx maverick compact
-fx wildcat 3 bt
-ghost (i’ve shot one. it’s nice)

which would you members with personal experience with said gun(s) recommend?

Your 25 grain requirement is 46.99 fpe. The maverick and wildcat are the same gun in different chassis and I think they're fantastic and slept on. My vote is for a bottle mav or wildcat because I can speak the the gun, I haven't shot a ghost yet. Plus I know you can get a quiet 50 fpe out of a 500mm 22 maverick.

You know what you like… Maybe try and handle your other two choices… Either way it’s going to be interesting what you decide on…🙏

i have my eyes set on a BRK but one of my buddies already has it and after shooting it, i can see why you praise the BRK name so much. solid piece.
i’ve also shot a very built up maverick shooting moa. it’s ridiculous how easy a 1 inch target is when a gun is tuned and zeroed properly.
if a wildcat is just a maverick in a different dress, then i would rather choose the maverick.

i’ve also been looking at the caimans and uragan. the mora is a shooter but visually not too appealing to me. looks clunky

If 28" isn't a definite need. Uragan 1 570mm CZ 1:17.7" is 32.6" long. Throw in the Huma XL plenum Reg and the gun comes to life. At 125 Bar you'll be sending 21 GR slugs down range @ 940, 135 @ 975, @140 Your 25grs will be at 931-935 At least this is my experience. I don't know many guns more efficient than this. I'm at 48FPE slinging 25gr .217 HP2 at ~932.5 getting MOA accuracy at 100. This gun is blast proof.

If you're budget is up there. U2/U3 are capable of much higher power. The U1 is a traditional Poppet valve and hammer spring. I would estimate tops out mid 60s fpe. the U2/U3 600mm Are capable of 50fpe in .177. Still 32.6". With their balanced valve and larger plenum, develop way more energy than the first iteration

hmm. thanks for the info. i’ll look more into them. nearing my max budget is the ghost and if i can find another gun that sway my interest for less moola. that would be great.
i also got to shoot the mora, very nice gun but it didn’t feel like it was for me.. if that makes sense. i like a gun that feels nice shouldered.
