Nice. Thanks, Marlin (and Remington)... mad


That sucks. You know a good smith to do the work?
laugh laugh Sorry, bud - but I didn't work with rimfires as far as barrels are concerned.


However, I did find the problem.. I was trying to use up a box of old ammo. Tried a different box of new stuff and the problem went away.. I'm gonna toss the rest of that old box..

Good deal. At least it was an easy fix. That is good..
