Ok, so I have this Marauder .22 pistol just sitting around gathering dust and I'm thinking of a fun little project for it.
Here's what I'm thinking:
Detune the Marauder a little to sub 12 fpe and set it up as a backup pistol for PFT, or just have it with me as a "loaner" gun if somebody new wants to try out Pistol Field Target at a shoot sometime, or worst case as just a plinker to burn up some of these .22 pellets I have sitting around. Well, I have good intentions anyway.
I'm concerned trajectory will be pretty "loopy" because it's a .22 pistol even though it's only shooting out to 35 yards. Are there some other downsides I've not thought of?
If it's worth pursuing this project, could some of you more experienced Marauder pistol guru's consider giving me some tuning tips for such a project? Pellet suggestions, speed, etc.
I have some experience with the 1720T's but have zero experience with a Marauder pistol. Different cal's I know, but they seem to look very similar otherwise.
