So, while at my LGS, and before I even got down to look at the Browning BL-22 I posted about earlier, I spotted a Marlin 336 sitting in the rack. I naturally thought it was just a 30/30 but then saw the tag which had 308 Marlin Express on it. It even has a Leupold 1.5x3 scope on it, which I personally loathe on a lever gun but that's just me.
Anyways, the price is right and it's in really nice shape so now I'm debating on it or the little Browning. Well, actually there was a Smith 610 sitting close by but that's another topic altogether.
I realize that finding loaded ammo, (for a decent price), would be the hard part although I've been able to find decently priced brass, dies, etc. and I enjoy reloading.
So once again I'm asking for any input on the rifle and caliber from you that have/had them and shot them. BTW, it is a JM stamped rifle. Thank you.
