Guest Daffy Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 I am currently in the market for a .22 Magnum. I was looking at the Marlin 983 and I like the look of it. I was wondering if anyone has any pro's or con's for this rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StillLearnin Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 Re: .22 Magnum opinion I have one that I have had for a couple of years now. Mine is a clip load and it shoots great. I have never put it on paper and measured the groups but I can hit my 2" siloettes at 150 yards very easily. Here is a picture of mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adjam5 Posted October 28, 2006 Report Share Posted October 28, 2006 Re: .22 Magnum opinion No matter what 22 mag you choose, give the Remington 32grV-max load a try. What a job it does on small game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
