YOU ARE the only thing that is MORE than a joke.
Your blatant incompetence to ALL things rifle related is nothing short of amazing..... THIS is the only thing folks on the Campfire already know. You seem awful hung up on budget rifles. Got any good rifles?

Got any good rifles? Come on genius! The thread is Ruger American VS Marlin Post your opinion and then proceed to tell everyone who posted on the thread how incredibly stupid they are because they posted contrary to you! Shod

Why don't you show us some pics of the Marlins, Savages, Tikkas, and Americans you own and have shot verifying said conclusions?

Trying to decide between the two right now for the wife in 243. I'm kinda leaning toward the Marlin.

I picked up a Marlin 243 last year for a friend of mine as her first rifle. She used factory loads last year but I worked up a 95NBT load for her this year. After shooting that little rifle for a little while, the Marlin 243 currently in the classified is very tempting!!
Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

I like the stock on the Marlin way better than the Ruger, its much stiffer

Don't wait too long to buy. It sounds like the geniuses at remington decided to kill the x7. Should kill the ugly 783 and take the marlin as their own.

Niece has a Marlin - outstanding accuracy. She is 8 for 8 with it on deer using Remington 140 reduced recoil loads.

Ruger American.
The only X7 I had would need a bottle of Viagra to kick out a case.

I hae never seen a Marlin stocked in a store to compare against. It seems like remington keeps it from the big retailers around me to hide their shame they cant make a budget rifle like that.
I would have to default to ruger based on availability...
Other than that, How was the show Mrs. Lincoln?

I really like the look's of wood stocked Ruger's, the Ruger American is one ugly gun though. Friend has a Marlin in 250-3000, very nice gun, I;d own one of them!
