The R7 is one of the sweetest shooting springers ever. Very calm on discharge but still enough power even for light hunting. Easy cocking and very accurate. Everyone needs one, It would be ideal for target practice at that range.

I had the HW30 which is a lesser expensive version of the R7. It was very impressive in feel, fit and finish..was very accurate out to 20 yards, very quiet and smooth. Just so long as no one expect a powerhouse, its a very low velocity springer. I liked mine very much.
I have a R7. It was a good shooter. Low cocking effort, accurate, low noise level and it won't bust your budget to get one. That is about all I remember about it. I got it as my first springer and my daughter commandeered it. I get to see it every now and then when we go camping she will still bring it.

I know I like mine, have had it since the 1980's. Very accurate and easy to cock & shoot.

Won't go wrong with an R7 for gentle and accurate shooting at the shorter ranges. Actually, with CPs, they do well at moderate ranges also.

I've got the itch, but don't got the scratch.
Agreed, the r7 is one of the sweetest little springers out there!
the 8.44 JSB Exacts will hold up to 50 in that power plant in .177.No power but accuraccy enough to hit golf balls.
