HUNTINGMAN Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I am thinking about buying one of the new marlin bolt action rifles in 270 or243 for me and the wife to deer hunt with this yeAr since I sold her other rifle a couple of years ago. I was wondering if anyone k OSS anything about these or has any experience with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2labs Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 I have a XL7 in 30-06 and it is a very good rifle for the $$, mine was under $300.00. I just bought a Nikon Riflehunter scope with the BDC retical and just put it on last night, I was shooting it with a older Simmons and needed a new scope. Very accurate !!

hunterbobb Posted October 24, 2009 Report Share Posted October 24, 2009 They are an excellent rifle. I think Marlin is keeping the price low in order to attract buyes and get a foot hold in the bolt action rifle market. I would get one in 270 Win though. Not as much recoil as the 30-06 but a lot more power than the 243. :gun2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2labs Posted November 13, 2009 Report Share Posted November 13, 2009 I sighted mine in last week, awsome accuracy, used the BDC at 200yds it was right in there. This rifle is very sweet shooting , no problems with loading or ejecting very smooth!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
