Good Luck,
I think you will like your .25 Marauder. I am not an expert on PCP's, but I have owned a few. I have had two Theoben rapid 12's. And I now own a 707 .25cal. and a 707 carbine .22. I can only speak for the Marauder that I own, but it has been an awesom rifle so far. I hope I can say the same thing a year from now. I hunt squirrel's with squirrel dogs, and the Marauder has been great for that. Some have had a few complaints,for the most part I think they are just "Knit Picking". I am amazed that a sub $500 gun would perform so well. My Theoben's were nice guns and very accurate. But they were not without issues. One came in that would not shoot a .22 cal. pellet above 700fps. I had to call the factory in England, they said to put washers behind the hammer spring. It worked, but GOOD LORD this was a $1500 gun!!!!! On the next one the clips would not go in the gun unless I sanded some of the plastic off of the clip. The 707's have been very reliable, but the trigger is terrible and they have no sling swivels.
My hats off to Crosman for building this gun, I thought the American airgun industry would never come around.
Good Luck,
Slink
