. I've had 2 Marlins, .35 Rem, that I sold one to a young 21 y.o. lady who just completed Hunter Safety Course looking for a rifle to hunt with 'bout 10 yrs ago.
.
A friend who knew of her said last fall that she has shot 7-8 deer with it during that time. Man, what luck.
.
Another woman, early 50's, passed HSC in 2005, sold her a 336 in .35 Rem too. Heard later she to got a deer that year. Haven't heard anything since.
.
I too, using a Rem.81, .35 rem. 200 grn, shot a deer, day before Thanksgiving in 1980. Nothing with it since.
.
Would buy another one if a good deal came forth.

Not sure how I lived with out one. I was lucky to pick up a nice Marlin w/gold trigger from the classifieds here a couple of months ago. Mine does favor the Hornady LeverRevolution tipped round. I'll be using on deer and hogs for sure this fall and will be interested to see how they perform.

ps - anyone with a Saddle Ring Carbine in .375 Magnun for sale or trade?

Not a Marlin, but by far my favorite NH "ridge rifle". It's crying out for bear this year....

HAHAHA! I've been hearing that for decades from other hunters when I carry my Rem 7600 carbine here in PA. Didn't know it had migrated north to NY. Nothing like 20-25 hunters armed with Rem pumps and Win. levers and with pockets full of doe tags putting on a full frontal assault (deer drive) to wake the dead and fill the freezers. If you haven't experienced this at least once in your life you are the poorer for the omission. shocked

I bought one at a pawn shop back in 92. Can't tell you how many deer I've shot with it. Most all of them dropped or never went far at all. My 18 yr old daughter has claimed "Knockem Down Sally" since she was 13.

Here in NY the 760 is widely known as the "Amish machine gun" and Win./Marlin levers are "redneck AK-47's".

Man those all look great. I just got a 336 in 35 rem earlier this afternoon. I traded an old 870 wingmaster since I had 2 anyway. It's in pretty good shape. Has a little wear and some freckling where it wasn't oiled regularly. The bore is perfect so I couldn't say no as I am gonna use it anyway. It has black synthetic stocks which is a sin on a levergun but they look and feel good so time will tell if I want wood back on it. Im pretty sure the stock set is the old ramline trail tech stocks as the buttplate has a rams head logo on it. Anyhow it looks pretty good other than the front sight screws are buggered but those are easily swapped out. Now I need to find brass for it. I have looked high and low but can't find any in stock. Hopefully I can aquire 40 or so pieces from somewhere to get me going until the seasonal runs gets some back in stock. I had a 350 rem mag and loved it. Just something about 35 cal makes me smile.

I know exactly how you feel. That's why I have a Marlin 336 in .35 Rem., A "pre '81" BLR in .358 Win., and Rem. 700 Classics in .350 Rem. Mag. and .35 Whelen.

Yeah I wish I would have kept my Ruger MKII in 350 mag. Nice stainless synthetic that shot very well with the hornady 250 round nose. I still don't know why I went weak and sold it. I have a 61 or 62 Marlin. Not sure as online says June of 61 to 62 so it could be either year. I have a rem 700 in 7mm Roy that will become a 350 mag once the barrel goes south. I think the only issue with my ruger was too short mag box so I had to seat 250s deep. In a long action I think it would work much better with heavy bullets. Now I just need to pickup another Marlin levergun. I have a 45-70 back down south at my dads but I basically gave it to him since he always wanted one and never bought one. Maybe I will go for 338mx or maybe a 45-70 again.

Yeah I thought about 35 whelen for the rem 700 when the barrel wears out but easier to go 350 since its a mag already no boltface mods and my 700 has been trued blueprinted, etc so its pretty much as good as a rem 700 can get minus a match barrel

ya thats a good call. the 350 mag has definite cool factor and a short action. i have a rem 600 350 that i bought about 10 years ago. i saw one in the early 70's when i was just a kid and wanted one ever since. very cool and very, very effective.

Since last year when I posted about my Remington Model 14, I have acquired not one, but two Marlin 336's in .35 Remmy! Both are JM's with no cross-bolt safeties. One I believe was unfired until I broke it in. The other has had many rounds down the pipe and has the sweetest trigger you could ask for. I'm still loading RL7, but have picked up some H4198 and refreshed my supply of H4895 to diversify a little with 200gr Sierra and Hornady RNs. I'll let you know how the loads work out.

Ive been searching for some 35 CL to try since this thread was started. Nothing so far, just HornadyLE.

On a side note I used to make fun of people and their 760's and the like, just figured they were crap and couldnt put 3 in the same target. One day my long time bud bought onefor pennies and we took it to the range. It had been carried to hell and back, but.........that sob would put group after group inside an inch. I came away enlightened and jelous. Anyone got one to sell?

Likewise my 760 story. I once bought a beater in ,223, just because I had never seen one. Sub 3/4" was the norm with factory 55SP. This was in my gun of the week period. It went as did a lot of other fine shooting rifles. Jack
