R3M .25 Data

Hi fellas

Can any members with a R3M in .25 flavour please post their rifles specs for info?

I dare say the majority will be JSB Kings, 940fps, standard/long and 1/2″ @50yds but I’m looking for more info, say 75 & 100yds plus the average speed that appears to give best results.

I’m interested in :

muzzle velocity
pellet brand & weight
model (short, standard, long)
accuracy achieved

Cheers lads

Demp 223,

Since moving to Montana we don’t hear much from you, good to see you posting again. How’s Montana treating you and are you liking it there? I was somewhat of a neighbor of yours when you lived in CA, 45min drive away that is. I will be contemplating moving to Idaho this summer.

I must say you provide proof to the quality and longevity of Edgun Matadors. I can’t say I know of anyone who has put as much lead down the pipe as you have and should provide testimony as to how well these guns hold up. I too have a couple eddies, .22 Std and .25 long but must say I need to fine tune as I do not get the shots you do. The .25 gets 40 some odd shots a 946 fps using JSB 25.4 gr. and accuracy as stated is phenomenal.
Did I say Phenomenal! 17 consecutive shots @ 90 lazered yards with a CTC group of .75” POA =POI, doesn’t get any better than that.

My Edgun (.25) is totally stock and have yet to get inside it. I would be interested in what your regulator is set at and what you do to clean /service your regulator. Presently I’m getting considerably less shots than yourself with only a 6 fps faster velocity difference. No doubt my reg and hms are not in balance with one another. Again it’s good to see you posting;

Cheers

Reg, trigger all fine polished and tuned. Light coat of Balistol on Reg parts. Silicone grease on Orings. As for barrel I just run a handful of Balistol coated pellets every few hundred and that keeps it pretty clean and worry free.

quote Demp223:

940 fps with 2.33 fps SD and 9 fps Max spread over 72-74 regulated shots. Close to 90k shot count on the 25.
JSB 25grain unsorted.
Long version. 1″ at 100yds 7-10 shot group. Multiple shots into one ragged hole then a couple around that open up group.
Unsorted pellets, slight change in wind, trigger pull between breaths etc etc. The rifle is insanely accurate.

Thanks for that info mate…have you done any tuning work such as clean out the reg, Polish the bore etc??

Cheers
