Well, folks I want your honest opinion if this is over hype of marketing being done for the EdGun R5 matador? I have been looking for the ultimate long distance airgun. As of now, I have pressed users on information about Bullet Shooters, big bores, and any type of airgun that shoot past 100 yards with accuracy. Up to this point I have yet to find any one solution that works well due to wind and power restrictions of air usage.
I do have an R5 from edgun west on Pre-Order but I want to know your honest opinions if you feel other guns are just as capable of doing this ? The video mentions somewhat windy conditions and shooting Soda Cans out to 250 yards. I know there are alot of FX shooters getting good distances. My limitations seem to be about 110 yards with no wind with my FX impact. 250 yards is an extreme distance in my opinion and to do this multiple times seems crazy good. You can see my other posts about bullets shooters and accuracy with very small response, people just are not shooting them enough that I seen a huge difference in accuracy at long distance. So we are back to pellet driven airguns. Is this video setting up unrealistic expectations? This is the first video on the page at the very end of the video. It is about 29 mins just skip to the end to see it.
