Marlin 60 Stainless with Simmons 22 Mag scope
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

A great looking rifle. The Marlin model 60 is my favorite, among the .22 autoloaders.
I have an older one that my father passed down to me. It is reliable and accurate, a pleasure to use.

That's a beauty, and you'll have lots of fun with it. I've found that feeding my 22 Mags is a bit of an expensive challenge! It's gotten a bit better, and I've decided that I will not pay more than $15.00 a box! Not too long ago, prices were much higher. Armscor makes some good WMR ammo, and I use it in both my KelTec PMR30 and my old Savage bolt action.

TACKDRIVER ALERT!!! I believe the Marlin Model 60 is one of the most accurate semi-auto, .22 long guns out there! Love ours! Has a Bushnell Banner 3-9x40mm on it; no varmints are safe out to 100yd!

That's a beautiful gun, and I love Marlins, but it is not the most accurate 22. Ruger 10/22's have a firm hold on that spot.
Cast I have a short attention spa

That's a beautiful gun, and I love Marlins, but it is not the most accurate 22. Ruger 10/22's have a firm hold on that spot. Just got my wife a new 10/22 a couple of weeks ago. We shall see which is is the most accurate. We have been at the rim fire range at our gun club (big rock gun club) for the past 6 Sundays in a row (with 22's borrowed from my Pops) so since we enjoy it so much, we got a couple of our own. Much cheaper than shooting our AR's. They have several of the steel spinner & resetting targets at the club for 22's and we purchased one (and our neighbors bought 2) for using at the house. I plan to do some "plinking" in the near future.
