Yes it’s just a spacer between the breech and the reservoir. However you’ll have to get a standard length transfer port and the normal length screw for the bolt that engages the hammer. No thoughts on getting a Texan?

I imagine the breech riser is there to allow a moderator to fit above the reservoir tube. You aren’t going to make 100fpe with that 12” barrel on the marauder. You can estimate each inch of barrel added will provide approximately 10fps to the pellet speed. I would be looking for a good custom...

It was a perfectly sane idea but then you went crazy with it.

Rest In Peace o’ good and faithful Marauder. Your work on earth is done.

He can just hold the rifle upside down when he loads it so nothing falls in. Or he can load it like a muzzle loader maybe. We can’t let little details like that get in the way of MAXIMUM POWER!

Well…. I retract my last post. I just saw the video. You won’t be able to use the ice maker tubing. You are going to need a garden hose, duct tape, JB Weld, epoxy, five paper clips and a pocket full of dollars to finish that project.

I’ve used the water line tubing for refrigerator ice makers for marauder transfer ports. Available at Lowes and it works great. Make it a little long and there’s no need for seals, but you can also use a silicone sealant for a seal if you want to.

I would recommend you use it a little while before you start changing things up. They are usually set pretty optimally from the factory. Do you have a chronograph? .25 pellet shooters are usually running from 1900-2100 psi on the reg. My Evol .30 is set at 2100psi for instance. With higher...

I enjoy watching the MountainSport videos that Dana makes.

The uragan .30 is plenty accurate enough to kill groundhogs at that distance.

I shoot 18gr JSB’s out of mine with fantastic accuracy. And much slower.

Meh. I can’t see that minimal support is a superior design. In fact the POI changes that are inherent in those rifles suggests the opposite. And you are partially correct. WELL MADE guns can be made to use free floating barrels that do not suffer POI changes, but let’s not kid ourselves, the...

I am of the opposite opinion. Every “free floated” barreled airgun I’ve ever owned has been crap when it comes to POI changes from one shooting session to another. That is with them exception of my Evol. But it is built rock solid. Probably one of the best upgrades to a marauder for example is...

I agree it needs more support. Someone could design a monolithic forearm that incorporates the picatinny rail on top and also clamps onto each end of the reservoir and it could be fairly sturdy. Possibly a full length liner that would completely encase the reservoir…. I’m just spit-balling but...

In my opinion… which is worth infinitely less than yours, you have set an overly ambitious goal for your Notos. To get another 100 fps out of the Notos I think you are pretty much DEFINITELY looking at a getting a longer barrel. You might gain a little by opening ports but you are also going to...
