Solid and accurate! I bought the 25 cal and am very impressed with the knock down power and accuracy for pest control. The wood stock is worthwhile a step up. Be sure you consider the price of a good air pump for this powerful (3000 PSI) PCP.

Update 7-8-2017Note: My 22 cal. Marauder does not have the accuracy of my 25 cal. I have not yet found a pellet that it is in love with. I have one tin of Crossman domed pellets that is seems to like better than most. With the pellets from that tin it can shoot almost as well as my best break action rifles. (20 out of 20 in a 1/2" circle at 10 meters) I suspect that the barrel is a bit on the large size. I don't know what happened to my pic's of the targets that I shot with the 22 but I can't seem to find them anywhere. My 25 puts them much closer to the center, for what that is worth. Great rifle, but get the 25 if you want to kill stuff.Update: 6-29-2017:I installed a decent OA scope ( a very old BSA 4 x 16 x 50 contender) and shot some 1/2" dots at 10 meters. 40 shots 40 hits many of them dead center. I used these pellets with great results. This is equal to a 40 shot group with a center to center spacing averaging less than 1/4" I think the rifle can do better but I am not a great shot. I think if I switch to 1/4 inch dots I can do better. The 1/2" dots are to large to center the cross hairs on.Update: 6-23-2017 WE NEEDMORE STARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I like the 22 so much I bought the 25 cal. It is just incredible. I mounted my ancient Daisy 3 x 9 x 32 non AO scope, filled it to 3000 psi and went to the basement 10 meter range. WOW! The scope was off to the left just a bit, but the first 8 shots went through the same hole! I tweaked the scope and put 16 more thru the second hole. I then switched to one of my favorite targets, a Tea can and shot Arnold in the hand, heart, head, jewels and both shoulders and elbows, turned the can on its side and shot the rivet off the pull tab with one shot. I then turned the can around and put 3 shots thru the same hole in 5 different locations. The yellow panel on the umbrella makes a nice point of aim. The Raccoons in my barn are in for a world of hurt.Targets are 10 shot groups with cheap pellets and even cheaper non AO scope, first 60 shots with new rifle. Just incredible!I shoot air rifles for fun and exercise. I have many and average 100-200 shots per day. The Magnum springer rifless, Hatsan 125's and Ruger Air Magnums give you a great upper body work out. The Beeman P17 and Hatsan 25 pistols are great for hand and wrist strength training. Until now I had not found an air rifle that will give you a cardio work out. The Marauder will. My other 4 PCP's only require 2,000# pressure and are easy to fill. The Marauder takes 3,000#. Pumping it up by hand 4 or 5 times will certainly raise your heart rate. The fact that the rifle is such a nice shooter, accurate, quiet, and a good trigger makes it one you will want to grab first. It is the final missing piece to my air rifle fitness routine. You just cant go wrong with a Benjamin PCP
