I bought a Marlin 795 22LR auto at an auction last Sunday. It was new in the box. I took it out to the range and put 5 rounds in the clip. I set up a target at 25 yards because I had no idea where it was going to hit. I fired all five rounds and went to look at the target. All 5 rounds were in the one inch bull. This was with open sights set from the factory. I wasn't expecting this. I think this is going to make a really nice little plinker. Anyone else have one of these rifles? Was your experience as satisfying?

It could be done with a few simple tools, knowledge of how to make priming compound, a source for the proper heeled bullets, and more patience than I possess.

And yeah, those 795's are no pretty guns, but all of them that I've fired are good little tack drivers
 
I have that rifle. And yes, its a tack driver.
Been meaning to pick up a couple extra mags, the tech sight, and attend a Appleseed.
Too many other priorities eating up my cash flow and time right now.
 
Mine is scoped and I think its my favorite 22. I can hit a fifty cent piece sized spinner at 40 yds with each squeeze.
 
I do not find the factory trigger to be a hindrance practically.
