The Slovenian company RTI has listened to shooters’ calls for change and created a truly exceptional gun. The result is a serious “piece of steel” that goes beyond established standards.
RTI Priest II is a compact air rifle with a sharp tactical look and amazing accuracy. Although “priest” suggests a man of the cloth, don’t be fooled by the name – this gun is hellishly powerful. You can easily pack it in your backpack and head out hunting. It will do its job perfectly on the range as well. The high-quality, cold hammer forged barrel from Česká zbrojovka will guide the pellet exactly where you want it.
Priest gives a chance to shooters who like to experiment. The barrel can be easily swapped for another one while keeping the same frame of the gun. Simply choose a barrel in your preferred calibre (.177, .22, .25, and .30) and replace it with the appropriate tool. At the muzzle you will of course find a 1/2 UNF thread for a sound moderator.
Loading is smooth and reliable. After firing the last pellet, the side lever stays in the rear position and it is no longer possible to dry fire. The manufacturer has put a lot of effort into fine‑tuning the trigger mechanism. You can adjust the trigger travel and trigger pull using two screws in the stock. The main safety feature of the gun is a manual safety.
The air cylinder has a working pressure of up to 300 bar and its volume is 350 cm³. That is enough for approximately 110 shots. If you need more shots per fill, don’t worry – in the recommended products you will find a large 500 cm³ carbon cylinder. The Standard version has a fixed pressure regulator set to 145 bar.
For mounting a riflescope, there is a standard 22 mm Weaver rail. It is also located on the underside of the frame and will make it easier to attach a bipod. The Priest II sits well in the hand thanks to the ergonomic AR‑15 standard pistol grip.
