    So terrible it's almost certainly not the rifle. Baffle striking in a suppressor, scope mounts are loose as a goose, or scope internals are rooted.

    The little Marlin may not look a lot different to the Rossi but it has way better tolerances, barrel and manufacture. It will prove to be a more accurate and reliable hunting rifle over the years.

    The differences between them may be hard to spot but the marlin would be a better buy than the rossi hands down

    mudgripz liked post by winchesterM69A On thread : is a 3-9x40 scope an overkill for a .22?
    Only issue you might have is the parallax setting on a centrefire scope is usually set at 100 metres. Since most of your shooting will be inside that ,a rimfire specific scope might have the edge. ...

    I personally think that the best way to learn the skills necessary is using a .22LR on small game. Just my 2 cents worth.
