The shooting in R6 feels so fucking bad now. It's also quite unbalanced :(

Wait til you try to hit a target 25 yards away with a FN 5.7 with no sight... IRL

I mean, if there's a pistol cartidge it's easy to shoot with precisely at medium range it's a 5.7x28. Recoils like a 22 with downright stupid velocity. A good shooter can do a 2-3-inch 5-shot group at 25 yards without an optic on an FN FiveSeven. With a red dot, they can get 1.5 inches pretty easily.

Some would say it's grossly underpowered, and only really useful tactically in the armor-piercing variety. But there's no arguing it's a breeze to shoot.

It is indeed a breeze, but as a personal preference I think is more effective at 25 yards or less, I don't consider myself a good shooter and I have trouble hitting the target at 25 yards accurately with a 5.7, but with a 40 I can do 50 yards with ease.

Maybe the projectile speed plays a factor, also I tend to practice shoot with one hand, which might be playing against me.

You should try 10mm if you're good with 40.

I am not. I'm too much of a skeet shooter to be good with a pistol.

I have tried it, is my girl's favorite so we shoot it pretty often.

Edit: and how funny, I've never tried Skeet Shooting, but seems like a lot of fun.

Skeet shooting is a lot of fun, but trains you to jerk the trigger.
