I've had my Marauder Pistol/Carbine for about two months now. The past month and a half, I've been hunting it heavily on California Ground Squirrels, with excellent performance from both the gun, and the Sn-2 tin pellets.
In the interest of showing what one example of an untuned Marauder Pistol is doing right out of the box, I thought I would post the shot string she produced while I was searching for the best fill pressure. The Sn-2 pellets are specifically recommended by the manufacturer, for use in springers and gas rams, but as others have found, they work great in some Marauder PCP Pistols, including mine. The performance on ground squirrels out to 50 plus yards has been excellent. The weight of mine with the camera mounted is only 6.25 pounds, and the gun is a real pleasure to hunt with.
