I found that once the air gets a bit below that 50% line accuracy drops off. But that's still quite a few shots before needing to recharge and the compactness of this thing is invaluable.

How many shots does it take to get to 50%?

I think you'll have better luck if you keep it operating between 2000 and 3000 psi.
When it hits 2000, it's not much work to bring it back to 3000.

I haven't counted exactly. I'd say 20-30.

And 100% ain't near what it used to be.
I'm here to increase my social credit score and rub elbows with some of the highest rollers on the internet.
wellp, ive taken the PCP step now bc these critters are running around my yard w no fear and the springers aint gettin it done. gotta keep everything on the DL so the old ladies wont report me on nextdoor. hell even the cat caught a squirrel yesterday, like hes ashamed of me.
I fugkin' love this thing. I had no idea an air rifle could be so fun.
I whacked one of those invasive species doves in the yard the other day and its partner went ape schit. So I whacked it too.
Back to the garage sale, put the dogs in the yard and closed off their doggy door. Forgot about the doves. Came back and feathers everywhere. LMAO. They seemed happy.

Do the 25's kill more better than the 22's in your experience?
Never had a .22 air rifle,but the .25 smacks squirrel's noticeably harder than a .22 short,plus they are quieter,more accurate and safer,as the pellet slows down sooner .My marauder shoots a 25-26 grain pellet 850 fps.Sight in at 35 yards and down 1.5"@ 50. Easily shoot 1/2" or better @ 50 yards on a calm day.I own several nice .22 sporters and target rifles and the marauder is the most fun rifle I own.
I have a question: why other than some legal reasons I’m not aware of, use one of these relatively heavy and cumbersome air guns when you can use a light trim 22 rimfire rifle shooting CB Longs which throws a 29-gr bullet (same as the 22 short) at 700 fps?
I can see the argument that the 25 might smack a bit harder due to diameter but it can’t be that much can it? I can also accept it’s lower BC than the 29-gr .22 may be a bit of an advantage in a settled area.
Is this another version of the 270 vs the 30/06 argument? 😀

And very quiet too. Honest question.
Because this is what my Anschutz 1415 will do with .22 CB Longs
And this is what my .25 cal Marauder will do at the same distance (80ish yds)

Tmitch, I see your point, or rather your problem with the CB Longs with that rifle. Interestingly, I have the same model and it shoots them very accurately as have other 22’s I’ve had.
I have nothing against airguns other than than their general bulk and weight as power goes up but there are exceptions there too. Back in the day, I thoroughly enjoyed the much simpler Sheridan .20 cals and the Benjamin .22’s.
My point was the CB Long’s ballistic pfffft generally falls in the same league as good airgun power
