Was Marlin the only company that made the stainless version or did Remington make stainless version also.

Not sure I understand your question. Are you wanting to know if Remington still made the stainless version after they acquired Marlin or if all stainless guns are pre-buyout?
All I can tell you is my stainless 7mm-08 was bought new as a closeout about 2yrs ago and it does not have the JM stamp on the barrel like my lever guns.
It is very accurate. 1/2 inch groups with my 140 Sierra ProHunter handloads. It's quickly becoming one of my favorites.
Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

The Marlin X guns morphed into the Remington 783s and AFAIK Remington hasn't cataloged the 783s in stainless.
I have yet to see a poor shooting Marlin X gun. I've got a dozen of them, mostly rebarreled with recycled Savage 110 series barrels, and have shot at least a dozen more. I think that Remington should have just made the X guns in the same configuration that Marlin did, as the cosmetic changes to the 783s are a negative for me.
