I tripped over a 336SC in a pawn shop nearby, a couple of years ago. It's pretty nice, for a little levergun that I wasn't really thinking about until I found it. It shoots into 1.5" with all the factory ammo I've tried in it, even better with 150PP stuff. I've only had it hunting once, but it dropped the doe within 40 yards, and there was no doubting she was going down. I like it, fun to shoot, don't even have to load ammo for it, and it carries pretty well.
It IS a bit barrel-light, but I'm used to a 24" M70, or heavy-barrelled varmint rigs, everything is muzzle-light compared to them. I adapt pretty well, anyway.


You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
