Any Comments on the Marlin 60

[40cal.]

Looked at a Marlin 60 today at Turners? I liked it, sleek, good looking, just wandering how reliable and how cheap it's made with all the mfg's going to mim's parts.

Been over 11,000,000 of them sold. Solid, reliable and accurate rifle. Great for squirrels, rabbits and plinking out to 75yds. I have one made in 1985, looks and shoots as the day it was new. Not many after market parts available like for the 10/22 but some stocks and trigger parts/guards are available.

Just as good as a 10/22. I think it might be better because of the tubular mag. I get a lot of jams with aftermarket 10/22 mags

i got one and i'm using regular sites @ 25 yrd and hitting target everytime. it's an awesome rifle. my first .22. tube fed, can't go wrong. the only problem is i hear they are a pain in butt to take a part and clean. so i just stuff the barrel with a cleaner and call her done.

I have one its reliable & accurate my only complaint would be trigger is crappy compared to my 10/22s

Looking to add one to my collection one day. Pretty much same receiver as Marlin 795 but tube fed instead of mag fed.

Already have:
10/22
10/22 Takedown
Marlin 795
Henry Lever Action
CMMG AR 22

Adding a semi tube feed 22 would round out my collection pretty good.

And a pump 22 also.

Great rifles. Reliable and very accurate.

I have one from 1977 17 round tube.... I love it.. paid 100.00 for it and 2k rounds of ammo and a bag.. Great gun for the money...

You ever been to angeles range? You know the 100yd steel targets? I can pretty much hit anything I want. I can put rounds into the visible approx 2"x1" bases that hold the targets stands up at the 100yd mark (granted Im still working on my kentucky windage). I have it zeroed at 100yds and my hold is 1 mildot low @ 35yds.

Im running DIP trigger, trigger guard, charging handle, and picatinny rail base. 3-9x40 (iirc) nikon mil-dot (non-rimfire scope), boyds stock and harris bipod. I primarily use Federal 550 Bulk.

Only issue Ive ever had is the action sticking when running that coated wolf match ammo - that coating gums everything up.

If youre able to make it to Angeles let me know and I'll let you try it out.

Wow, sounds like a good shooter especially after a few upgrades. Don't ever make it to Angeles though, I'm a little further south then that, thanks for the offer though.

That's what I want it for, squirrels and general plinking. Thanks

Accurate and reliable.
Don't have to spend extra money for magazines.

theyre nice and cheap. you can get them for under $100 used. i prefer the old Glenfield 60 that holds up to 17-18 rounds

EXCELLENT rifle, I put Tech-sights on it... Tack Driver !!! Only problem is that the Tech -sights are a PIA (won't stay on rifle-keep falling OFF) !!!!!!!!!
