Just Ordered the Marauder Pistol!!! #51

[Jay]

O.K. got done sighting in my pistol!!!! Wish I could put up pic's but remembered I canceled my web on phone an no digital camera yet(Hey Santa),but I'm glad I got this pistol as it adjusted right in an with no break-in it tore the 10 ring out of the standard GTA target at 20yd's from a standing position, tri-pod rest!!! 8 shot's one ragged hole TWICE!!! It was 32 degree's out with a slight cross wind today,the gun started at 2,800 psi an in 32 shot's dropped down to 2,000psi an by then my hand's had enough of the cold that I did not even consider trying to pump it back up an continue any longer. I have held onto the target an if my son on above post ever get's his butt down this way I will have him post it up for you all.
P.S. I'll add if anyone want's a excellent target/hunting pistol I have NO problem saying be ready in December an jump on the next 25 they are going to release. You will have one of the first 100 out(collectable?) an a great gun to boot. NOW I'm LOST to the Dark Side .

the gun started at 2,800 psi an in 32 shot's dropped down to 2,000psi

Good info! Did you notice a big drop in velocity before 2000psi?

Did not have a chrony running detox,shoot lucky I even went out in the cold LOL, but I wanted more distance than the basement 10yd's allow's(rest of winter will be indoor shooting).But yes I would say that the last 8 shot's started heading lower an I had to hold "just" a little higher for the last 4 as #3 shot did just break the 10 ring an they where stringed in the bull instead of a nice cluster. I'd say the man who did the write up for Crosman has it right the sweet spot seem's to be between 2800 an 2400 psi,just from my very limited shooting of the pistol(I only have like 45 shot's down it). I also would like to say it is a "very very" quite gun for such a short barrel an shroud(after the first 8 shot's?) I would put it in the same range as my Whisper as really you just hear the pellet impact the board with a small phiff on firing when in the open.
