depends on how well you can shoot it. :)

Accuracy depends on how consistent the gun is, and paint to barrel match. Since the Automag has a built in regulator, we know that it is consistent... So beyond that, you need to know if the paint you use matches the barrel you have. I suggest finding out what size the paint you use is (i.e. Blaze is approx .684) and getting a barrel that is close to the same size.

CP makes good barrels at a decent price in three sizes, I'd get one of those unless you happen to be able to afford and adjustable barrel kit (Freak, Equation, etc.) at this time.

So, to answer your question... Yes the Automag with a good paint to barrel match is a very accurate gun.

Also, the inherent design allows for little kickback (as opposed to Spyders & whatnot) and even less with the Level 10 kit. (The BIG upgrade for any 'Mag. Look at the first page for info) Less recoil means you don't have to adjust your aim as much, therefore somewhat more accurate.

Welcome aboard!

PS- there's a little search function for the board. Use it every so often. You might answer any questions you have.

Welcome to AO!

I've had my mag for what seems an eternity an I've had no problems hitting anything I aim at... except my sister, she just seems to keep hiding my paint Damn her for he insolence! The key to accuracy on ANY markeris paint barrel match, if you don't have the right barrel you will not have the accuracy. I have a Minimag with a CP 14' on it right now and it is exceptionally accurate with almost every paint I have put through it. My Dye stainless barrel doen't like too much paint but when I get the right size, LOOK OUT! You just can't beat it.

MAGZ RULE 'nuff said.

Here's mine with the CP.

dude why even ask, if buy an automag and get LVL-10, retro, hpa tank, and a good barrel to paint match you'll be the envy of you town. you wont break pait, you'll be able to shoot fast, and your gun will look good.

Mags Accurate?

Go to this URL

Check out how the Mag compares to other markers in it's class.
You will notice that with a good paint to barrel match it is as accurate as anything out there.
You may also notice that the shot consitancy on air and CO2 is near incredible and surpassed by no other marker tested.
You can't go wrong buying a Mag.

[Miscue]

Those accuracy tests are not dependable and should not be taken into consideration... although the 'results' may be favorable to the mag.

[Bushman]

Misue.

I constantly hear people dissing these tests yet, to my knowledge, no one has tried to better them.
Do you know of any more scientifically/statistically sound comparisons that have been done?
This would be a resource that I would like to have access to.
I have been using these as a reference because some effort was actually put into them.

Thanx.

i heard something about the bench test not being a reliable source because after each sot the marker moved and caused the error in the shot
