So, I'm in the market for a new 30-30 lever action, not sure which direction to go. I've been looking for a JM stamped marlin 336, but they seem scarce around here and when they surface the price just isn't right. Usually $400 plus for one of the older ones and that's in a "well used" condition. All the horror stories of the new production Marlins have kept me away from them and the new production Winchesters are just a little steep. I've been thinking about the Henry 30-30, however I'm not a fan of loading from the end of the tube and not from a loading gate.
Any good options out there?... I'm still looking for a good condition older Marlin 336, so far no luck though. If you were to purchase a new production 30-30 lever action which one would you get and why?
