Marlin 60SS

[stephi4]

My PINK Marlin is starting to come together. I know its not everyones cup-o-tea but I like it(guess its a girl thing)!


Now if I can just find a pink scope!


Anyone know how they shoot?

Congrats! Very nice paint job on the laminated stock.
The Marlin 60 shoots very well. They are accurate 22 lr rifles.


BTW, If I may ask who is the maker of the scope rail on your rifle?

Marlin 60s shoot very well for what they are. Buy a 60, buy a 10/22 and unaltered the 60 will outshoot the 10/22 nearly every time. The mircrogrove barrells tend to be very accurate. Be careful with the crown on the barrel. Use a patch worm or boresnake to clean the barrel, never a rod from the front of the barrel. The 60s are capable of shooting 1/2" @ 50 yds with the right ammo and the right shooter. They are fun guns as well as accurate. Congrats on a very nice looking rifle. I have seen some pink rifles before and thought YUK, that's ugly but yours looks very, very nice.

Get it scoped and starting shooting in the monthly rimfire matches, they are a hoot.

It looks like the DIP rail. I put one on my 60. Its a really nice piece. Looks like the DIP charging handle and trigger guard combo, also.

Oh-O!!! That is all subject to individual opinion. I own both and I tip the hat to the "unaltered" 10/22."

no not really lol, its a well known fact in the rimfire world, marlin 60 outshoots a stock 10/22, why do you think theres such an aftermarket for 10/22s , lots of disgruntled ruger owners

[Izzy43]

Don't get me wrong, the Ruger is a nice Semi and many shoot well and they can be made into tack drivers with the right barrels, triggers, etc... but if one wants accuracy out of the box I doubt will find another semi rifle that can beat a Marlin 60 for accuracy at their price point. Neither are match target rifles. Plinkers and squirrel getters for sure.

Well again, it's all up to one's personal interpretation. I own both brands with varying models. I love both guns. But I'm sure i can out shoot probably you with my stock 10/22 vs. your stock 60.

Bring your factory Non-bull barrel 10/22 and I'll bring my 60. I'll even bring $20 to back up my talk. The 60 WILL beat it.

Now here's a guy that knows. If you check out the monthly Rimfire matches you'll find your $20 in his wallet.
