The Slovenian company RTI has answered shooters’ calls for change and created a truly exceptional gun. The result is a serious “piece of steel” that completely departs from established standards.
RTI Prophet II is already the second generation of this successful compact air rifle with a striking tactical look and amazing accuracy. At first glance, not much seems to have changed on the rifle, but don’t be fooled, because compared to its predecessor, the second generation offers a whole range of improvements. The most significant include a larger Power Plenum with a capacity of 70 cm³, a redesigned valve, a smoother operation of the cocking lever, and a brand-new RTI barrel that has been specially designed for use with traditional pellets as well as slugs.
Prophet gives a chance to shooters who like to experiment. The barrel can be easily swapped for another one while keeping the same rifle frame. You simply choose a barrel in your preferred calibre (.177, .22, .25 and .30) and replace it with the appropriate tool. Of course, there is a 1/2 UNF thread at the muzzle for a sound moderator.
Loading is smooth and reliable. After firing the last pellet, the bolt lever remains in the rear position and it is no longer possible to dry fire. The manufacturer has paid great attention to fine-tuning the trigger mechanism. You can adjust the trigger travel and pull weight using two screws located in the stock. The main safety feature of the rifle is the manual safety.
A standard 22 mm Weaver rail is used for mounting a riflescope. It is also located on the underside of the frame, making it easier to attach a bipod. The Prophet sits well in the hand thanks to an ergonomic grip of the AR-15 standard.
The aluminium air cylinder can hold up to 350 cm³ of air and its maximum filling pressure is 300 bar. The Standard version has a fixed pressure regulator set to 125 bar.
