Junior Daugherty did a lot of load development with an identical rifle and boolits. His page is still up.

Nice looking rifle, 2A-Jay, and at a very good price. We'll hope she shoots for you as good as she looks. Hard to beat a nice '94!

Thanks, I have a Marlin 336C that needs a serious visit to a Gun Smith. This new gun was paid for by our in door yard sale Saturday and Sunday mostly stuff (non-gun related) that haven't used in several years.

New owner BEWARE of Marlins..
After shooting a bit, you will be subject to a severe infection called Marlinitus.
Welcome to the brotherhood... enjoy your affliction!

New to me today Winchester Buffalo Bill Commemorative 30-30. this is going to be a shooter not a safe queen. The guy I bought it from is the first owner he Recently used it deer hunting. My cost $350.Nice addition to my Stable.

Very nice! My youngest is named Cody and he had one of the Buffalo Bill carbines by age 3. Some years later he used it to kill his first deer.

Win. and Colt made a bunch of commemoratives in the 60’s, 70’s and even into the 80’s. Maybe a few too many but it did enable them to sell more guns. Everyone I know that has finally broken them out and shot them, has never had remorse. My Colt “golden spike” 22 scout is such a wonderful shooter.
