Crosman Phantom 1200 FPS .177 Caliber Break Barrel Air Rifle This is my first air rifle, but i have been a gun owner for years. I am a 22 fanatic especially. I was shooting with a friend a while back and he busted out a break barrel air rifle. We took a few shots and it reminded me of all the fun I used to have as a kid with a friend and his little daisy 10 pump bb gun. I decided to get one but didn’t want to spend an bunch of money it. I spent a few months researching these low-end air rifles. The Phantom seemed to stand out a little bit above the rest so i went with it. I found it at Wal-mart for $80 without the scope. The scope that comes with this in the combo pack was not reviewed very well by many sources. I also don’t like using scopes and would not use it anyway so why pay for it. Also, there have been complaints by some that this was advertised as a 1200fps rifle and when they got it found out it is actually 1000fps. I have only ever seen it advertised as 1000fps with the option of 1200fps with high velocity pellets. On the actual packaging it clearly states this, although if you are ordering online you may not be able to see the packaging. I have not actually tested the velocity myself but have seen chrony tests online and it seems to come in right around these figures. Now here are my personal findings after a few months of shooting.
