I just picked up a Marlin 308MX LNIB with a LNIB Bushnell Elite 3200, Claw Sling and 3 boxes of LeverEvolution 160's.

Did I do good on the deal?

How is the performance of this round on Deer?

Does anyone load this round with Barnes TTSXs? (I know I could only have 1 in chamber and one in the mag but I think this could come alive with 130s)

Thanks

You got the scope and ammo free, and a bargain on the rifle.

Most standard, used 336's around here are $399.

Congrats, A very good deal indeed.

Priced new you've got about $50.00 - $60.00 in the mount/rings, $225.00 in the scope, $25.00 (or more) per box in the ammo, $28.00 for the sling, plus the value of the rifle. I think you did damn good!

Ps If a 30/30 or 35 REM will perform on a deer, I think your .308 MX will perform better.

Unless I'm missing something you didn'y state what you paid for it so it's kind of hard to determine if it was a good deal or not.

$400.

Very good deal. It's a great rifle. You will love it. I use mine for deer and yotes. Great performance and accuracy.

Looks like you paid less than half price for the works.

Rifle new lists for $550, Bushy 3200 3-9x is close to $200, ammo is $26 per box, 1 piece base and rings another $40+, claw sling $26.

The Bushnell 3200's are being blown out on closeout for $140 but you still did darn good on it.
