Hi. My only air rifle is the Benjamin Maximus. As you know, its limit is about 2,000 psi and very easy to hand pump. FPS with 22 cal, 15.89 grain pellets is somewhere between 850 to 900 (I think).
Ok, so my question is, what are you gaining by going to a rifle such as the Gauntlet or Marauder that is more around 3,000 psi? The FPS on those rifles is similar to the Maximus in the same caliber.
Is it simply the ability to take more shots per full air load, or are these rifles actually more powerful in some way.
Please explain.
Thanks!
