to much flufff not sure what to think of it , says 49 shots on the display.. but at what 300f/s ? , also wonder how they have 145gr slug with hollow bass an plastic tip . mine look bigger an are solid but only 124gr . probabaly be a sweet gun if they just made a nice 357 with out the other junk .

They have not worked those bugs out of it.
it will make 20 shots at 100fpe with 90gr bullets per fill from a 330cc reservoir.
on full power with 145 grainers it gets 3 shots on a fill.

The 49 count is bogus and they are aware of it.

The 20 shots at 100 FPE is right on the money efficiency-wise.... Assuming a 1500 psi drop from full to end of string (ie 3000 psi down to 1500) thats 103 Bar times 330/16.4= 20 cu.in or 2060 cu.in. Air at 1 Bar.... 20 shots at 100 FPE = 2000 FPE / 2060 = 0.97 FPE/ci (15.9 Barcc/FPE).... Nothing wrong with that.... 8)

Only 3 shots at full power?.... Same reservoir, same pressure drop (I assume) should be same amount of air available.... The number I have heard is 250 FPE which is only 750 FPE total.... That means the efficiency has dropped to 750/2060 = 0.36 FPE/ci (6.0 Barcc/FPE).... That seems VERY low.... What goes?.... I would have expected 5-6 shots at that power level.... :roll:

A Quackenbush Exile .308 cal does 9 shots at over 200 FPE per fill with a reservoir that can't be any bigger than the Rogue.... :wink:

but it is shrouded just like a marauder so you wont get one in Canada.
all the new stuff from them seems to be a no-no up here and crosman Canada could care less if they got any!

Kudos to Crosman for coming out with something fresh in the airgun market but I'll pass.

Amazing engineering, quite the concept! Jus to techy for me, ssoon youll need a code reader when things start going guffy. Myself if I need that much power Im not going to carry a scuba tank around, I just load up the powderburner.
