Glad to hear Remlin quality has improved. Hope they bring back the 444 although I already have a few JMs.

too many older real Marlins out there........

they built them when when they gave a schidt........

buy one of them

If they bring back the 444 I may be tempted......

I've had (have) two new Remlin 30-30's- 336BL and 336W w/ scope- both purchased new this year and both problem-free w/ the limited diet of Hornady LE 160gr I've fed them. My only complaint... well, not a complaint, per se, more of a preference... is that I prefer the BL over the W, to that point that I went ahead and scoped it, too.

So, be looking for a near-new scoped 336 to hit the Classifieds soon... only has about 10 rounds thru it...

I am also pickey, therefore all nine of my Marlins are JM. I don't like the finish and will not own a plywood stock. I have seen a few that were fitted pretty good.

Looked over a couple yesterday.
I actually like the new matt finish though I can't qualify how it wears in the field.
Have owned, tested and used a lot of them since the 1895 was reintroduced in the early 70's. Always liked them, but tended to swing .458 or .460 when I wanted the bore for the power.
