    .357 tactical marauder

    the two outliers on the bottom left and right were shot at around 2100 psi which brings the grouping to around 4 in. the tighter group up top was shot within the 2500-3000psi range. this grouping was also shot during my initial testing without any tuning. I would say its averaging around 3in...

    wouldn't know the answer for the first part of your question, but it is seated on rifling.

    Custom Marauder leaking problems

    So for my setup I have a 28in lothar walther un-choked barrel meant for firing slugs. the WAR valve provides the rifle with more than enough power to push some heavy bullets through. the valve port and the breech are machined for a half inch transfer port. the reservoir is lightweight from...

    Custom Marauder leaking problems

    now that I think about it, it wasn't and I just looked at where the fill nipple meets the air tube and there are some small air marks where the meet. I've changed that o-ring every 6 months and inspect the new rings for any damage before installing them so I wonder if the air tube is the issue.

    Custom Marauder leaking problems

    Slow Build Marauder vs FX Dreamline

    My Marauder started out as a .177 doing 30-35 fpe. Now its in .357 doing 220fpe(with a lot of custom work) . So what I'm saying is that the marauder is so flexible, the possibilities are endless.

    leaking problem

    Hi all, I did a post about my marauder with a cothran valve leaking a little while ago. so I changed the o rings to find out the air is coming from the valve. that says to me that the poppet might be stuck and that is causing it to leak air. Should I carefully take the valve apart to examine...

    Marauder Leaking problem

    So a few months back I finished my .357 build for my marauder and all of a sudden I started having air leaks everywhere. I got the JSAR aluminum tube for it and I'm getting air leaks out of the fill port and the pressure gauge. I've already replaced the orings except the small one under the...

    My new Gen 2 Marauder .22 - startup and impressions

    One thing goof about the marauder is that the after market possibilities are endless. If you do your research it can be very rewarding.
