Have had two 9422's, both gone now, and currently own a 1949 vintage Model 39 with a Lyman peep sight. The Winchesters are/were more nicely finished, lighter and a bit handier. Couldn't say on mechanical accuracy between them, never benchrest tested any of them. Trigger pulls are all about equal - the Marlin breaks very cleanly at about 4 pounds and I don't remember the Winchesters as being particularly great nor bad.
But when it comes to shootability from field positions, IMO the Marlin wins, especially when all rifles are equipped with peep sights. The longer sight radius provides a tad less aiming error and the extra weight out front really steadies it in the hand. The pistol grip places my finger to the trigger just a leetle better as well. I like pretty but put the greatest value on a rifle's ability to let me put shots on target.
So let's update the score to:
Winchester 3
Marlin 3
