Im a new marauder 22. owner andd have a few questions:
What would be the best settings fill + power to get 30-35 shots I have a tin of rws hobby pellets and a tin of crossman premier hollow points not sure which one to use? Not sure which one has both accuracy and knockdown power?
I want to use it for hunting mostly jack rabbits and ground squirrels and want to knock them down.
please if anyone can help me i have looked for 2 days on the net and still am wondering.
Thanks in advance:) |

Hobbies are too light for a Marauder.... Your gun will perform better with pellets in the 16 - 21 gr. range.... I would recommend JSB Exact 15.9 gr or Heavy 18.1 gr or Kodiak 21 gr.... Try them all and use what is the most accurate in your particular gun....
