View Full Version : Marlin 60
Anyone out there a big fan of Marlin 60's?
Sure am. 60 and 795, both shoot well.
I like them too. I had one in my youth that I would shoot until it wouldn't function anymore and then clean it up and do it all over again.

They are great little shooters
Love mine can drive tacks with it all day long
They are a minor pain to strip down, don't have the aftermarket of the 10/22, and can be finicky about ammo (no Winchester or Remington in mine). However, they also tend to be inexpensive on the used market (my VG condition '86 was $85 with cheap 3-7x20 Tasco scope) and the stock accuracy is pretty sensational. At my 25 yard indoor range last week I shot repeated 1/4" 6-shot groups with cheap Fiocchi ammo, said lousy scope, and shooting off sand bags. With a bit of work I think that can be improved...

Have 2 and love them
I have one and can't spend enough time shooting it. Put a $24.00 scope on it and it shoots great.

Talk about reviving a thread. I'm down to one now. Gave the other to my nephew.

I highly doubt i'll ever find reason to get rid of my Model 60.
I have a Glenfield copy of the Marlin 60, and a beautiful Marlin 60DLX, both bought from members here. Both are marvelous shooters, very accurate. They just need much larger magazines, I can empty them too quickly. Wish I knew of a patch of woods in the country loaded with squirrels.
It was my first gun, I learned to shoot and hunt with it. Then years later I had to sell it to make rent. I bought a used one years later. It's accurate but it's just not the same. I still have it, but I'm thinking of selling it.

Never had or heard a complaint about one.
