The refurbished .25 Marauder arrived today on the same truck as my pellets and spare magazines. Couldn't have planned that.
I loaded up two magazines and filled the rifle with my portable buddy bottle.
No scope on it yet. Just looking down the barrel at my back stop. Whoa! It has real felt recoil. Not that violent back and forth slam of a piston gun, but a direct rearward kick like a powder gun. At shot 16 the kick still felt about the same. Can't wait to get a scope on it and see what it will do. Unfortunately I'll have to wait. My chipper shredder also arrived today, and I need to clear a lot of tree trimmings. I'll be assembling and using that the rest of the day... well after I finish a PTZ camera mount I am making for a customer...
