    very happy with the new Marlin Guide . . its early days but accuracy looks like 1.5MOAish, good enough to stretch it a bit further yet.
    on paper energy figures are impressive for a blunt nosed bullet . . . 1000lbs at the muzzle with more power at 600yds than my .30 caliber sub guns have at the muzzle.

    present scope for the time being is a 6X Leupold with 80MOA remaining of elevation which could get me to 500yds if i was feeling dangerous ... .
