R3M /R3 Review and Performance .WoW
Gentlemen;
First of all i want to apologize to Mr. Eduard and all of you, because i brought you incorrect info regarding the loudness of the new R3M, i told you that it is a little bit louder than my M-Rod, but it is not like this,
Okay, let talk about the loudness, what did you say? loud? Hey Hemn what sound are you talking about? 😯 guys if the Condor sound level is #5 and M-Rod is #2 then the new R3M is 0.75 😯 😯 on my point of view, because it is really really quite, yesterday when i did some practice in my fathers backyard all the sparrows and doves or even all birds they were on their position near at me on the trees when i was trying to do some chrony test, never moved and flied, believe me guys,
when i said that R3M is a little bit louder i was in my bed room 😯 😯 when i tried three dry fire,
Eduard you are correct as you told me dry fire is usually louder than fire with pellets …. sorry again…..
it is really really nice rifle and quite also more powerful than the R3,
guys you will be surprised when you see the below strings of the new R3M, here we go……………………………………….
Date Oct 12th 2013,
Edgun Matador R3M, .22 cal, starting pressure was 220 bar as mentioned in the manual.
Pellet; JSB 18.13gr
Eduard please tell me am i sick or these fps are correct ?
Shot# FPS
1 – error
2 – error
3 – 1012 the muzzle was near from the chrony about 50cm the i put the chrony after this shot 60cm away from the muzzle.
4 – dry fire by mistake
5 – 1003
6 – 1003
7 – 1003
8 – 1004
9 – 1005
10 – 1001
11 – 1003 Pressure was 200 bar
12 – 1009
13 – 999.5
14 – 1002
15 – 1001
16 – 1000
17 – 1004
18 – 999.7
19 – 998
20 – 1006 Pressure was 185 bar
21 – 1007

26 – 1002
27 – 1000
28 – 1003
29 – 998.1
30 – 999 Pressure was 172 bar
31 – 1002
32 – 998.2
33 – 993.7
34 – 994.9 my place was very very bad for testing my gun so, i had to pull the gun toward me in order to get the perfect position for aiming the target, so, i believe those shots under 999fps occurred because of that.
35 – 995.9
36 – 999
37 – 997
38 – 999
39 – 999.2
40 – 997.9 Pressure was 155 bar
41 – 1011
42 – 997.1
43 – error
44 – error
45 – error
46 – error
47 – error
48 – Fucking error
49 – Fucking error
50 – Fucking error i believe due to the sun set the chrony wasn’t able to read. the last pressure was 145 bar
The average of the total of 39 shots = 1001.2 fps. ( i got the fps of 39 shot that is why i am calculating only 39)
the accuracy is very good out of 40 mtr for me ( since i am a new one to Bullpup and such a high quality of the gun )
Dear Sir Ville; when you read my review you will understand that there are a huge difference between R3 and R3M.
Dear Trygve; please go back to your home and let Mr. Martti ship your new R3M.
I will post the pics of the targets latter…..
Hope other guys who got their R3M share the new info ……………………

Hello Hemn, my chrony M1 is approx. 40-50cm from the barrel. I think 50cm must be good distance for chrony. I also chronyied my HW100 sub 12fpe. I set 240m.s. there is max deviation 1,5m.s. and I got from 200bar to 80bar 140shots (10 mags :D)
Dear Octavius;
These are really nice strings and the consistency is very tight, please post more stings from full pressure…… i know Cricket is also one of the good PCPs.
mine was my first time and the place was really bad, i will try to get better result in the future, i think the point is the gun is new to me, also i have to get used how to shot with it,
Please can you tell me how far(how many cm) the chronograph should place/put from the muzzle for air rifles?
my chrono placed 60cm away from the muzzle, is that right?
60cm away from the muzzle then i got the average of 305.4 mps and 50 shots from 220 bar down to 145 bar,
Edit; the muzzle energy for my R3M is between 40-41 fpe.

Dear Demp, thanks a lot for your kind words, Eduard and all folks here don’t recommend tune Matador unless after 1000 shots, still i have a huge shot count with that monster killer power.
Congrats again. Post pics.
I have the same feeling and curious to know how many shots can i get with 910 or 900 fps? i believe more than 100, some thing between 100 to 110 ….. or maybe i am wrong.
It seems to be very good efficiency in 1000fps 😯 In power range 900fps I´m curious how many shots you can get??? 😉 Good luck Hemn.
FD; i know it is really over kill to me, since i have chance to hunt only Quail, Pheasant, Read Legged Partridge and Fox(Some times), in fact as i mentioned before we have plenty of wild animals but a few, not like US, you have all type of wild animals and the quantity is perfect.
With average of 1000fps i got 50 shots and the pressure was 145 bar, i think i can get more 20 powerful shots till 120 bar.
if i bring down the power to 900 fps, i think i can get 110 or 120 shots, and not sure how do you think guys? is that possible?
but anyhow, i will not touch anything till 1000 shots then i will ask Eduard or our brothers here in the forum to give me his/their advice.
Steve; go a head with your new Cricket then for the next year don’t forget to order the new R3M, and i am sure you will divorce your Cricket at that time.
some nice figures,now you need to go and hunt with it,enjoy your edgun!!! im thinking of an edgun in 25 for next year,i should be collectng my new cricket in a few weeks,so we shall see how that performs in 22

Congrats on finally getting her. Definitly running hot for long range pellet stability but if your pesting close like out to 50YDS enjoy extra FPE. Or tune it down to 880-900 for higher shot count and long distance shots.
Congrats again. Post pics.
It’s shooting too hot. You might want to bring it down to low 900’s

Hemn! Congrats again and one notion too : What´s the big difference between the R3 and the R3M ?? It IS the same gun except the multishot. Thus there´s no problem getting an R3 to shoot over 1000 fps with 18gr JSB´s. Trust me – it´s the same gun equipped with a MS,the newest reg (which have been used on R3´s for a while already) and that´s it. Same exact rifle.
