Marauder in 25 cal?
« on: January 16, 2010, 01:21:00 AM »
I heard on one of the other forums that the marauder may be coming out in a 25 cal? Is this true? I have been thinking about a 25 for a while and that would be a great start.

I know there is a fine line between a hobby and an obcession, to bad I sped over it at about a hundred !!

Jim Chapman already has one

http://www.californiapredatorsclub.com/index.php?showtopic=17629, and it seems that MAc1 has them too.  This new information has really screwed up the thought of a 9mm and 22 Marauder

I get online and look at some pellet prices, and it seems that the .25s are sometimes cheaper than 22s.  Hmm.  I have a year, ill see how it goes.

No Marauder in 25 cal on the website or the PCP pistol either?

I don't find any mention of the upcoming 25 cal marauder or any mention of the PCP pistol? Anyone have a link to the new guns?

Crosman should be posting their new 2010 catalog on their site soon. You'll be able to see them in there. Or you can order a catalog at their site. In the mean time here's a brand new link to the pistol.:

Well...join me in havin both...22 & 25!!! I see a 25cal in my future, when the price is right and bugs ironed out. Already bought more pellets and I dont even have it yet. But I can use my .25 WFH to test em out. Bought some JSB Kings.

Jeff, I had luck with showing her the size of pellets and having some difficulty in bringing down a raccoon in the backyard. Said I needed a 25 cal for the thick coon skulls. Its mostly true. But we know that with excellent shot placement, even the lowly .177 could pop a coon...but those spastic little coons dont sit still for very long. A .25 helps a lot. You guys have woodchucks out your way...a .25 surely would make a great big "smack" on them!!!

I think you could just buy the parts necesary to upgrade your 22 to a 25.  There aren't that many to go from 177 to 22.
