Deke Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 It's a very good pcp with a lot going for it. I run mine at 32 fpe with Baracuda 21.1gn pellets. Marauders are designed to be 'tuned' by their owners: they have an adjustable transfer port and you can adjust hammer spring tension and hammer stroke. With settings for these optimised for your rifle it's possible to get at least 30 consistent shots at 30 fpe with an ES of approximately 20 fps. If tuning your rifle isn't for you it's possible to fit a regulator and get 30+ very consistent shots (ES approx 12fps). Regulators for the Marauder can be ordered from Altaros and Huma-Air (Google for their web sites). Other plus points are: very good trigger (once the 'lawyer spring is removed);price - you get a lot of gun for your money; spares are cheap and readily available; customer service from Crossman is reportedly good. There are loads of aftermarket mods available from talented amateur air-gunsmiths, mainly in the USA, and some professionals. If you are considering putting a Marauder on your shortlist it would be worthwhile checking out the Marauder Airrifle Forum http://www.marauderairrifle.com/forum/ You will find loads of useful information there.
