Marauder barrel options

Nation, 

Just for a FYI, Crosman no longer uses Green Mountain Barrels for about the last year and a half. That's not to say that they do not have any more in stock, I would guess probably not, but doesn't hurt to ask. You might want to contact Green Mountain Barrels directly, and find out if they have a current replacement in stock, being they used to supply Crosman with their barrels.

I am getting excellent 100 yard accuracy with 34 grain VK slugs from my factory stock Green Mountain Barrels! (I have 5 Marauder / Armada in .25)

Interesting! How fast are they flying?

Can't find my setup notes so I'll clock one and see. All are running modified / aftermarket valves, springs and one is regulated.
 
Hello all.

My name is Bill Greathouse. I have a small shop with 4axis CNC mill, lathe and other supporting equipment. I recently purchased Jim's barrel equipment and have been making drop in for marauders and a couple for FX Impact. Jim and I have known each other for a while and I've helped him out in the past, with some of his parts, when he had gotten back logged. We live in the same community and that made it convenient and easy. Jim had approached me with buying War but due to a large expenditure on machinery, my purse was too light. Some time later, he approached me with the prospect of taking over the barrel aspect of his business and that was within my business budget. So, I purchased his equipment and tooling. I was familiar with his process but lacked the intimate knowledge that he had kept close to his belt. Now I have that secret sauce so to speak and have been making barrels for a couple of months now. I intend on maintaining Jim's process and providing the same quality product. If there is anyone who might currently need a barrel, please contact me [email protected]. .If you know of someone interested in a barrel, please pass along the word. For those of you who want shoot NSA slugs, I hear that NSA has a mandrel specifically for their ammo. It is likely that he will give permission to use his mandrel to produce a barrel. IIRC, he let me use it once for a customer who was an avid consumer of his product. I look forward to earning your business and providing you with quality drop in barrels



Thank You

Hey Bill, glad to hear someone is making barrels now. I am still working on a .250 slug build for a Marauder and will send you an email soon.
