Any word yet on how it may compare or come close to in this department?

Hopefully this new marker don't end up being like the TES...shoots fast but has leak issues and velocity issues out of the box.
It would be nice not see FAQs that include that "this must be done out of the box" type stickies.

Someone got banned for screaming this, so I'll keep my inside voice on :tup: Accuracy has very little to do with the gun, and quite a bit to do with the paint to barrel match. By a diadem, buy a edge kit, and go shoot some ppl :tup: BTW, it will NOT have the problems of the TES out of the box. I've played with a pre-production (near prototype level anymore) diadem, and it was marvelous.

All of the videos on our site are done with out of the box guns.

I do understand what accuracy consist of. What I don't understand is how some markers just seem to have a better flight of paintballs than others. Like last weekend I got a chance to shoot a trix and shocker, the trix had a stock barrel slightly over size to the paint and the shocker matched the paint using a freak yet for some reason the trix still shot "straighter" and further than the shocker and both were chronoed to 280.

Oh well don't mind me, I'm just a noob trying to learn.
Thanks AM, I'm just kinda of nervous on where to push my cash to thats all.

Im gonna take Ingen's side on this. WHat you may be thinking of is the kick of the gun that can throw you off a bit. Check out this video...

Accuracy myths debunked by a slightly crazy person.

It basically deals with pump vs. semi, but it applies all around.

well, we all know matrix pwns the shocker. It eats it's face and spits it out like tobacco chew.
