    I've been eyeballing this gun for 3 months. We finally got 22 WMR in stock. So...I snagged it.
    What do you guys think?
    I'll probably clean it up and refurbish the stock.

    Marlin 783? THe 782 had a mag that loaded form underneath if I remember.
    I have one that looks a lot like that. Best 22 WMR I've ever shot.

    A little TLC with the wood and you will have a great looking and great working rifle. And you got it at a great price :)

    Nice gun. I'm starting to think used rifles are so much better. As cleaning them up is just a much fun as shooting them.

    A good scope would not be wasted on that rifle!

    Finding an older rifle and bringing it back to it's glory is a great feeling. This along wit hthe fact that there are some real good shooters bade back-when and it's a great way to get a lot of gun while maybe saving a few bucks.:)

    Hell of a deal, with a little cleaning and a new finish that could be a fine little rifle.
