If it were up to me, I would go to the local gun store and put them on the counter. Pick them up and get a good feel for them. Then decide. All three are great choices.

IMO I love 7600’s. I have 2, a Carbine 35 Whelen and a cut down 308 Win (20”). The Whelen is new and it’s taking a little longer to break in than the 308 did. Blast isn’t as bad as everyone makes it out. Then again everyone is different.

I have 2 Marlins...a 35 Rem and a 30-30. Either would be my second choice.

I had a 358Win in a BLR that I sold. It was very accurate and very nice, however I just couldn’t warm up to it.

Have fun and good luck!
