EDGUN R5M LONG .22- NEW LOOK -Longest KILL for me with this gun

Hi it took 2 shots with 28 gr I was zeroed at 50 yds and I did hold like 8 ,1 mils and I saw shot pass over his head and I took second shot at like 7,75 mils and this was outcome . my wind hold was 1 mil it was about 10 to 12mph

lleon Yes they stand out in the winters here , in summer you would not see them with leaves , but your scopes glass makes a big difference , My scope I used was my SMIDTH BENDER PM2 5-45 I had it on 12x ,

Titus is a older pure breed , His kind was designed to burrow in holes to kill badgers , well I dont have badgers here so he adapted to animals here , one thing I want to add , I got Titus when I married colleen , She got dog as he needed to leve his environment and she took him, when he got here he could not walk at 11 and slept , and was on leash , I trained him to use no leash and taught him to hunt with me after eating coyotes and wild game his coat is so shiny he can run now , actually he wakes me up to hunt for his breakfast every day , now it is winter so the bastard wakes me up at 7 to get him a squirrel if it is like less then 20 degrees out he sends me out alone , but if I get one he runs and does the titus shake on him he grabs by head and shakes and then runs home with his catch and runs up 18 stairs and barks till colleen opens door to shot his catch wagging tail and showing off then he drops it by stove to cook and waits ha ha ,

I live in CT , but I am retired now so I can travel to do hunts , and I am looking to leave this state and buy a place where I can be outside more and taxes and costs are cheaper . See where I live has 4 seasons and we have alot of great fishing and hunting ,but from some injuries I got some medal in my back and hip and leg so when it is hold pain keeps me inside . plus our laws are not good for PCP hunters it needs updating like example , you can shoot a coyote any day in year with a 22 caliber , so I have this R5m for this at 69fpe I can put every shot under 1 inch out past 100m , , but bt law you can shoot at a coyote with a 22 springier with 12fpe , there is no clause , also , it is not legal to shoot a .25 caliber air gun even 12fpe to hunt a squirrel , So I think laws need to be looked at , and I feel airguns and rifles are not same , when they wrote these laws 25 caliber did not exist .

So I may move where I can hunt year round and can have more land .and be in a state I can use other pcp guns I would like to hunt with .

great steve , thats what it is about , with me it is my life to shoot now LOU

orion this is my latest scope , great for tracking your shot and follow ups ,

i got it on gun broker from a guy who had put hundreds on the auction starting for 1 penny lol he had 1x8 .3x20 , many 5x25 a few of 5x45 and a few 3x27 , I do own a 5x25 but I wanted a 3x27 but I won this one first , then I stopped looking as I can affordt to buy more but it was fun bidding on many of them he he LOU

I do not go past 150 bar ,at 170 your speeds mite be lower , as the valve may not open fully check with a chrono , My 22 long can do 150 bar fine if I go to say 155 bar my power wont increase , I think with the way the design is , higher then this valve doesnt open enough , so you would need heavier hammer and spring , but they when running higher pressures , You may need to use a thicker valve stem as well as if you upgrage your spring and add weight to hammer , the Valve stem becomes the weak link in the chain ,So being I have all Ed-guns , I find Oem guns can go to this level with out any mods but huma regulator
