PPFFTT. dead. the kodiak moving around 770fps spun him a few times throwing him back into the ivy. i haven't found him yet. mrs. sniper will be gone 3 more times this summer. next hunting session i'll try crow mags. _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Sat Jul 25, 2009 6:57 pm AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6930 Location: "Out There" Marauder! Why you dirty ... Good job. Here's the problem- if it's so quiet you couldn't hear the shot, and you haven't found the carcass- is anything really dead? (some kind of airgun Zen thing here maybe?) _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.

Seriously, I've got to decide between a Disco and a Marauder, I can't afford both.   Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2009 12:45 pm Mark5043 Silver Status Member Joined: 12 Apr 2009 Posts: 1379 Buster Bodine wrote: The way Sniper talks about that Marauder, I don't think he missed it, I think he just hit it so hard it popped into an alternate dimension.

I love the Marauder,and want one bad.I just want to be able to shoot the Preds without cycling issues.I have a Disco on the way,and they are actually pretty quiet once you install a TKO 6.5 inch brake.   Posted: Fri Sep 11, 2009 8:41 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho Buster Bodine wrote: The way Sniper talks about that Marauder, I don't think he missed it, I think he just hit it so hard it popped into an alternate dimension.

I agree Sniper,the Maudi is a better gun.I have a Disco on the way though for the time being.Got a Killer deal,with the pump,and all.Over a hundred off retail brand new.I know they are loud,but they are pretty tamed down with the TKO brake.if I don't like it,I can always keep the pump,sell some of my springers,and get into the Maudi club.Damn you for having one!It's all your fault for making me have to get a Marauder!At least that's what I'm going to tell my wife! "Just kidding" My only concern is that you say they don't like Predators.I love them!Any other pellet that the Marauder doesn't like?   Posted: Sat Sep 12, 2009 10:34 am sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho so far mine only likes beeman. kodiak -crowmag -fts. it hates jsb/crosman/rws. _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it....... first kill with the marauder     Air Gun Home Forum Index » Hunting, Pest Control, Varminting You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 1   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
