Frequently Asked Questions

Can short-barreled airguns be accurate at long range?

Yes, the Edgun Sub MOA 30 caliber barrel, despite its shorter length, demonstrated impressive accuracy at 200 yards and successfully hit a 24-inch gong at 300 yards with pellets, challenging the notion that barrel length is the sole factor in long-range airgun performance.

What makes the Edgun Sub MOA barrel suitable for long-range pellet shooting?

The Edgun Sub MOA 30 caliber barrel features a very slow twist rate specifically designed for optimal accuracy with pellets. This specialized design allows it to perform exceptionally well at extended distances, even with its relatively short barrel.

How much pellet drop can be expected at 200 yards with a 30 caliber air rifle?

During testing, a significant pellet drop of approximately 6 to 7 feet was observed when transitioning from a 100-yard zero to a 200-yard target with the Edgun Sub MOA 30 caliber barrel.

What were the key findings regarding barrel length and airgun accuracy?

The video's findings suggest that barrel length is not the definitive factor for airgun accuracy. The Edgun Sub MOA's performance at 200 and 300 yards indicates that other design elements, like twist rate, are critical for achieving precision with pellets at range.
