I have not shot a current production Marlin,they had some issues when Remington took over,but I think they have solved them by now. Just look closely at wood to metal fit and fit and finish in general.




I wish my 1953 336-A .35 shot that well with 200gr core-lokts. My ole gun has been subborn finding a load it likes.
