Has anybody here on the forum had any experience with the Benjamin Marauder .22 semi-auto yet? The Benjamin website said not available when I checked.

Benjamin Marauder .22 cal semi-auto

I have one. I had to polish the barrel and work on the crown to get the accuracy where I wanted it, but it's doing pretty good now. It's still not near as accurate as my .22 Marauder, but it's doing much better than any of the previous semi-autos I have owned. It definitely needs a larger magazine though, 10 shots can go pretty quick. Here's 2 5 shot groups at 37 yards.

That’s actually pretty good. It’s just the nature of any kind of semi automatic not to be as accurate and you have to expect that.

I'm toying with the though of a LW barrel for it, but I've read there SAM barrels are slightly different at the breech end than the Mrod barrels, so I'm holding off till I have more info on the differences and if they would cause insurmountable problems.

The SAM I have is pretty good as far as extreme FPS spread goes. I find keeping everything oiled is the key to consistency there. I have not gotten a chance to find which pellets it likes or stretch out the yardages for accuracy. I did clean and polish the bore, as well as put an o-ring into the barrel band to keep the floating barrel from flexing and both seems to have helped.
