    Rock river, Carlsen - drop it. Have owned heaps of Winchesters and Marlins and both make some very good rifles. Nothing wrong with the 336 range, and the 94s were still fine rifles up to last 3-4...

    Have owned numerous lever actions of various makes after buying first Winchester 94 40 years ago. Am a fan of both the Marlin 336 and the Winny 94 - would be happy with either. Both very similar on...

    Feather or Shoot liked post by mudgripz On thread : Marlin 7000 Dilemma
    Both 795 and 7000 very accurate with right shooter and right ammos - sub 0.5" groups at 50m. Little 7000 heavy barrel semi is a gem and yes I would leave that one intact and do your mods on the 795....

    Maxtoch 2X is well beyond the top Olight M3XS-UT Javelot. The Olight produces about 250,000 lux, which the Maxtoch does in medium mode, with top mode set at 365,000. Also Olight has to stepdown in...
