Dave,
Here is your recipe-
Marlin XS7 in .243 Redfield 3-9x40mm Talley Lightweight lows.
If you buy it all right- about $500 plus tax.
A nice US made package.
If you want to go "uptown", get a Rem 700 SPS. for about $150 more

Yeah I assumed the binos & range cheaters were made elsewhere.
That's ok.
I'm just happy to have another USA option in rifle scopes. looks to be quite a value.
Just remember, Honda ATVs also say "Made in USA" on them, though most of the parts with "made in" on them say Japan. Not saying the scopes aren't actually muchly USA stuff, but you never know. True dat BUT, parts for Honda atv's made in Japan are of good quality, just sayin.........
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

Awright Mr Schmarty pants.. Add $100 extra and get a fully finished US made Boyd's wood stock to put on the Marlin! They make several styles in several types /colors of wood. I think forest camo laminate would look cool. They make walnut too, though.

I put a 2-7 on this 35 REM Marlin 336 last year, it has the Accurange reticle - I like the sight picture with that reticle.
