I like mine clean and a bit shiney. I use a Lyman universal de-capper and then tumble in walnut to clean them up.

Joe,
Being trapped here in Connecticut, I understand. Can't wait to retire and escape.

Good luck, Blaine. I hope to be able to pull retirement next year.

Yep, that's what I would do. Quick and easy.

Yep, the Marlin 444 is a consistently accurate shooting gun. Handload and do some load development (for accuracy, if you want) and you can print cloverleafs at 50 yds. The Beartooth or Ranch Dog 290g cast bullets pushed by a stout load of H4198 or H335 or H332 will get the job done.

Jeff,

I checked all of the reloading manuals that I have and don't see any H322 loads. I think that you will do well with it, though. Just as info, the best load in my Marlin 336SC 219 Zipper is H4895/28.0g pushing a Speer 46g FP.

Prayers sent. Keep your chin up. I was out of work for a significant time and finally found solid employment. Must have been God's intervention, 'cause it's real tough for a guy 60 yrs old (me) to get a job.

Best wishes,
Dan

If you haven't already, go to Marlinowners.com. They have an extensive reference section that contains all the info you need for 336 maintenance.

Derenius,

That really looks nice and looks like a good handler. Especially like the trimmed-down forestock.

Dan 444

I have two 336 35Rem's and shoot cast lead in one and the Hornady 200g RN in the other. My most accurate load with the Hornady is H4895/37.0g. On a good day, 5 shots, scoped......at 50 yards about a 1" group.......at 100 yards about a 1.75" group.

Best,
Dan

Many thanks, Guys. They break clean and it looks like I'm where I should be weight-wise.

Thanks!

Hi all, Well, the wife was away with our daughter and MIL for the afternoon and I figured that I would just kick-back, with a little help from Jim Beam, and do something different. I dug out a RCBS trigger pull scale that I had bought a number of years ago (new) and decided to measure the trigger pu...

Just shoot 'em with one of your 35 Rem's.

Thanks, Guys.

I've gone over this rifle with a fine tooth comb and can not find one single flaw. Whoever at Marlin fitted the wood did an extraordinary job. I'm impressed with this one.....(I have 24 Marlins).

Hi all,

I just bought a 1995 (new, unfired) 336CS-35Rem from a gentleman over on MO's. Pretty nice wood:

If I recall correctly, there was a "Mountie" type 39 variant.....the Marlin 1897 Texan. The Texan is essentially the Mountie with a square lever, 20" octagon barrel, straight stock, Marbles sights and checkering on the forearm and stock handle.

YK,

I would guess that you're correct about it being a pre-safety 1894. I still wonder if he found a 336-44....they were pre-cross bolt safety as well.

Looking at the bores of the lever guns in a local shop yesterday and saw a large hole so I picked it up and it was a blue Marlin 44mag round barrel (sling studs and NO safety) in very good shape (90% ish).

OOPS, forgot to mention my (1952) .32 Win Spl. has a Microgoove barrel; since Marlin didn't introduce the MC barrels until later in the 50's, I would guess that mine had been re-barrelled somewhere along the way. I don't know, all numbers "match".....receiver (inside), tang (inside), bolt ...

In my Marlins I use H4895 in 219 Zipper, 30-30, 32 WS, 35Rem and 356 Win. In the straight-walled cases, I use H335 in 375 Win, 444 and 45-70. These work well for me. A number of years ago, I did make a concerted effort to "standardize" with using as few different powders as possible and th...

Both beautiful guns. The 375 is in excellent condition and, if it was in a box, you'd swear that it was NIB. The 336ER has some very minor handling marks in the wood, but the blueing is perfect. I've been looking around for these calibers in "excellent" condition for a while and finally fo...

The only issue that I've had with A Marlin was with a 1980's 1894CL (.32-20). It was "letting in two" (aka The Dreaded Jam). Even though it was over 20 years old, returned it to Marlin & they fixed it for free within two days.
