Title: Marauder Tuning Question
Post by: PasadenaMike on April 20, 2022, 10:31:07 PM
Can I decrease my hammer spring on my marauder without touching the throw? I want to decrease by possibly 1 turn to maybe have a bell curve not start flat at 3000 and drop off after 2200 and possibly have a lower fill pressure

They have an adjustable hammer spring and adjustable striker. So just turning the spring adjuster out would lessen the hammer strike and you could lower the fill pressure so you get the curve. The striker is most likely all the way seated in so you would only be able to turn it out more which would open the poppet further. You could just fill the pressure 200 psi above the fill limit and get more shots and a better curve. It wouldn't grenade the gun, it will just cause more valve lock which would increase the shot count.
