My home defense rifle is my Brothers SKS. I'm holding on to it for his girls (he died a few years ago) as soon as one of them asks she gets the SKS. In the mean time It's a memory I can hang on to. Now, the self defense rifle could double as a deer / general purpose rifle; but, I have a...

I can not tell which way to go until I know: 1) Where are you, and 2) What do you want it to do? As a side arm up in Alaska where big bad brown things would see you as dinner and not a threat I'd say neither. In Montana where big brown things scare the pants off you I'd say either, with a nod...

I'm surprised that no ones come up with the obvious answer. You need both. Since you already have a 308 get the 357 first. Then when it becomes appropriate get the 30-30

410 with either #6 or #4 shot. Either will go right through Mister Skirble and not damage your teeth.

I had a Marlin 1894 CS that was just about the cats meow with the 110 to 125 grain bullets. Hardly any recoil and right on target from contact range to 75 yards. All that extra velocity was nice too.

I've had one AD and one ND. The AD was trying to get the mag out of my kids 22 - not being familiar with the gun and its operation, and accidentally got the bugger hook on the bang switch. The second was simply negligence on my part, screwing around with my revolver after cleaning it...

I will get into what ever position it takes to get the sight picture to steady up. I laid down in the mud with an 1894 Marlin in 44 Mag to shoot a grouse once. Broke it's neck didn't damage a bit of meat. The rest of that hunt was cold and colder, and I saw nothing else.

Just start with a plain Jane M94 Winnie or Marlin 336 and go from there. Oh, you can get carried away a really Mall Ninjafy the Marlin. Furncliff has a nice picture of one all done up. It may actually be really good to use, just my eyes have a hard time with it. 'Gettin Old and set in my ways.

I guess it depends on whether you are trying to load the gun or beat a snake to death with it.

So you have a Mall Ninjafied Marlin 336. Most any parts house will have a breakdown of parts for the Marlin.

I have had, in 22LR ... Marlin M-60s, Ruger 10-22, Remington Mohawk 10C and Nylon 66s, and a Glenfield M-25 (it is a tube fed M-60). I purchased them because they were on sale and I needed a 22LR. I would take any of them again. All were excellent guns and all were sold at one time of...

Oh so much talk over such minor details. Any bolt action manufactured any where for any length of time will fail at some point. I suspect that 99.9 % of them are good to go for any purpose. That 0.1 % is probably the concern of the 0.001 % of hunters who are going after truly dangerous game...
