"Bad time to replace a string with the season underway" I know I was hoping it didnt come down to that, perfect damn timing. The string is well broken in so I didn't think it would stretch that much anymore but I guess it is time to bite the bullet, or arrow, and just get a new...

I have allen wrenches could I just tighten the screw on the cam or wheel?

I have a Bear Instinct and the string has eventually worked a little loose, nothing extreme just a tad too much give on the initial pull and I'm pretty sure that's what's causing the annoying somewhat loud vibration after the release. Is this something I can fix ina jiff on this particular bow...

thankful Finally found a thread where I belong. I'm a newby to the 336 but love everything about it. Mine was manufactured in '73 and guess what.. it was.. wait for it.. UNFIRED. I happened to stumble upon a guy selling it who never fired it bc it was made the same year he was born but was...

Thanks for all the comments guys. And to the couple that suggested sticks/shovels... those tools are great for around the house, however out in the brush, with rattlers, ill take the 410 :p

Wish I could afford to test a variety but I think ill try some slugs and #4 buck and see what I like best, thanks guys.

Will be hunting in a new location this year, up around Comanche, Texas area. Know a few people from the area and after hearing about the abundance of rattlers I've decided to carry my little 410 (youth w/ 18" barrel) on my back while sitting in brush with bow or levergun. I know birdshot is best...

Sarduy... dude. It obviously endured in that test a lot more than any rifle will in its lifetime. Looks pretty darn tough to me. You sound like a teenage girl arguing about what he said she said, give it a rest, I can't believe this thread is on THR.

Addicting it is. Gunbroker has quite a selection. Ill let yall know how this works out. Gun porn makes me feel naughty:evil:

Well Wyatt, I reckon that's the best bit of advice I've heard in a long time. ::he turns to the marlin, "I'm your huckleberry":: Saw Wyatt, figured I would make reference to one of the greatest films of all time. Thanks guys

I've been trying to sell my 30-06 so that I can put the cash towards a Marlin 336 in 30-30. I haven't had any luck in selling it yet but I came across a 336 built in the 70's that was part of a collection and unfired. Just the mere thought of it sends chills down my back. I want to go ahead and...

Thanks for all the replies fellas, and certainly appreciate the heads up on the new marlingtons! I wanted a marlin for the fact that it was a Marlin. :D

I was unaware of that thanks for the heads up. I trust Remington though in the bolt action department. Are they not as sharp when it comes to levers? Please inform.

I'm in the market to acquire a new lever gun for some close quarters hunting when I want to give the bow a rest. I'm leaning towards a Marlin 336. I love the wood on the BL models but I see that they only come in an 18" barrel. I'm a firm believer in that the gun is only as accurate as the...

lookin for suggestions on where or who to look at for getting my pistol painted. although ive found a few just wanna exercise as many options as possible (prob just frame for now, may do slide later)....also thinkin of gettin it in digital camo, if anyone knows anybody that does good work or...
