I have a 1952 336 RC 30-30 with an old Weaver Classic 400 scope that will shoot the 150 grain Federal blue box stuff under an inch every time. I also have a 1961 336RC 35 with a Leupold 1-4x that will shoot just about everything under an inch. I have had many that would shoot right around an inch and many more that shot under 2". Only had the odd Marlin over the years that would not do at least 2" with proper load development and scoped. I don't know where the old addage about leverguns being inaccurate came from. It is not true about Marlins from my experience.
