marlin 336 Whats going on gang, been a while since i posted here. :36_1_63: I'm looking really hard at marlin 336 for my deer rifle. I had to get rid of most my guns dew to money situation i had but now I'm back on track and it's time to restore what has been lost. What are your thoughts on lever 30-30 as a meat harvester/defense rifle? At my local walmart they have them for $319 and the ammo is alot cheaper then 30-06 or 308. Plus I wouldn't mine setting up to reload in this caliber. Let me know what ya'll think. thanks

Re: marlin 336 I have one and it's my favorite rifle. Built like no other and fun to shoot. At $319 it's a deal you can't pass up.

Re: marlin 336 great all-around gun, that's a really good price too

Re: marlin 336 How available is the 30-30 ammo? I was looking at that one too, I checked one out at a local shop and I really liked it.

Agree 110%. Great rifle, great deal. The Marlin 336 should be including in any list of great American firearms. Sure, the .30-30 round is a compromise, but if you laid every deer killed in the US by it, end to end... well you get the idea. :ok: What I like about the 336, it has good lethality and no one will give it a passing glance, as opposed to black rifles and it is built like a tank. Every patriot should own one.

Re: marlin 336 What! You haven't bought it yet? What are you waiting on! It's a great rifle, I have two, one in 30-30 and another in .44 mag.

Re: marlin 336 The 30-30 is one of the oldest cartridges surviving from the past - most of its contemporaries didn't make it to the future. To my understanding, one of the most popular of all time. That sounds like a good price for an excellant rifle to me.

Re: marlin 336 I bought a Marlin lever action .22 back in the mid 70s, probably 1973 or 74. Walnut stock, a beautiful gun. I think it was a 336D, not sure, maybe a 39. Only thing is, it only cost about $105 back then. I had to sell it to pay a speeding ticket. That still hurts.

Re: marlin 336 I bought a Winchester 30-30 lever action model 94 15 years ago for $130 used and love it as well as the cartridge. I think the Winchester looks better than the Marlin but everyone tells me the Marlin is better and kicks less. Do they make a stainless 336?

Re: marlin 336 Murdering deer since 1917+- . Can not go wrong in the woods or under 150 yards. Its king of the Mo Ozarks deer rifles. Good sounding price. E-A

Re: marlin 336 +1 My 336 wearing a Leupold 2.5X will put three Winchester 170 PPs into an inch @100 yards... Go for it.

Right, I've never seen a 336 for under $350. It's a steal!

Re: marlin 336 Now you all got me freaking out, no wonder that was the last one. Walmart in next town had them going for $367.

Re: marlin 336 Great rifle! I have the .444 short barrel version for, uh..you know...elephants! Yep! Actually the stubby big bore is perfect in the oak scrub I hunt in as most shots are 40 yards or less. and ya don't want them running off.

Roland30 | 04-12-2009 11:17 AM
Re: marlin 336 I found a used one in a local pawn shop for 300$. Tomorrow if it's still there I'm grabbing it. I don't know alot about lever guns but this one looked really well cared for...or just underused. I would really like to have a more GP non-scary looking rifle.
