Shoots great, feels like part of me. A trusted choice. I did have it pillar bedded and the barrel free floated, then swapped to a Timney trigger. And more... Photo when it had an older 2-7x Redfield: Regards, Guy You got a go to load for all those critters or does it vary with the circumstances/species? Bore size is no substitute for shot placement and Power is no substitute for bullet performance. 458WIN

You are both correct - those are not in GA. Those are both from Sask. I've killed some good for here deer with that rifle but definitely not like those

I really like that 336. Is it a 18” barreled Texan? It has a 20" inch barrel. It is a 336 SC Made in 1957 that has been converted to a Texas style grip. I didn't start the conversion. When I bought it someone had started the conversion and used the wrong lever. They evidently gave up and sold the rifle. I found a correct lever for a 35 Remington straightened it out and When I put it in the rifle it worked slick as a ribbon. It has become my favorite Marlin. Harry
