This for me somehow clears the ISR delay errors. Eat lead, Mister Bear.Otherwise we would need to be really screwing it up to still affect 115.2bps. A 200 grain roundnose softpoint traveling at 2000fps (2100 if LeverEvolution is used) will plow its way deep into the chest cavity of any critter. 35's record in the field will hold its own against ANY cartridge for sure kills on game in North America. 35 Remington may seem turtle-pedestrian when compared to the ".268 WhipperSnapperUltraMag", and similar rounds listed in today's ballistic charts, but the good ol'. Apologies to Winchester Model 71 owners (certainly the "finest", and I am a proud owner), but the Winchester Model 71 cannot claim to have ever been accepted as a base action for benchrest guns (the Marlin can, and believe it or not had a pretty good following at one point for that task). The Marlin 336 may well be the most accurate centerfire lever action gun ever made. The piece is shaped to near completion before installation, then finished to perfectly match contour while in place. Contouring it to the stock is not beyond anyone with a modicum of patience, and preparation to protect the surrounding wood. Restoring the trademark is not difficult, and the piece can be purchased readily. Integrity for regular sling usage is compromised. This results in the sling swivel (or stud) not having the purchase it might otherwise have if attached to the buttstock wood itself. It's really NOT a good place to do that, as the bullseye is merely glued in place, and the recess in the wood itself to accommodate the bullseye is actually pretty deep.

Yes, unfortunately, the "Marlin bullseye" (some call it a "bird's eye"), served frequently as an attractive "target" for the home gunsmith's drill in order that he could install sling swivels. Regardless of where the stud was installed. Sling stud or not Smitty got a good deal on the gun. It wasn't until I started doing some reading on the Marlin forum that I changed my mind. So I don't really need a sling on my guns.įor what it's worth, I always assumed the bullseye was for the stud location. If I had to have a sling on a Marlin that didn't have a stud I'd pilot drill and install it behind the bullseye. But I think most prefer to have the original bullseye. The guys on the Marlin forum seem to be divided on this. I think I read somewhere Marlin recommended installing the stud 1" behind the bullseye as well. For me repairing the wood would be easier that replacing the bullseye and trying to get the contour correct. If I ever decide to repair it I prefer this over having to replace the bullseye.

They didn't pilot drill the hole so it cracked the surface wood a little. My 1958 336 someone installed the stud about 1-1/4" behind the bullseye and slightly off center. It identified the gun or at least the stock as a Marlin. I've read that the bullseye was a Marlin trademark of sorts. All three are about 1" behind the bullseye. Both my guide guns (a Remlin & a JM barrel gun) and my 1894. 35 Remington LeveRevolution ammo at a decent price, but Hornady seems to only produce it once a year before hunting season, so once a store is out, you might have to wait until the next summer to pick some more up. I've read that when they became "Remlins", some older parts (still stamped JM) were shipped to the new plant and used in the first rifles to come off of that line.īi-Mart sells the Hornady. The JM stamp, I believe means that at least the part were made at the New Haven plant.

If you call Marlin and give the CSR the serial number, they can tell you what year it was made.
The MSRP for a new one is over $600, not sure what they actually go for, but I'd say your price is solid. From recollection he got it around the time he retired, so it would have been early 1980's, and the box still had the discount store price tag on it, I think it was around $115. I inherited a 336/.35rem from my dad, it was still in the cardboard box he got it in, never fired. I think you got a good deal (depending of course on the condition of the rifle).
