HuntOrBeHunted Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 Whats up guys it's that time I start thinking about a new hunting rifle and I was looking at a Marlin x bolt 270. Any one have, used or shot one of these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bballhunter11 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Well more information as to what you have and what your going to be using it for would probably be helpful. But i think you need to actually do some more of your own research as marlin doesnt make an X-bolt, other than that marlin makes a solid entry level rifle as does mossberg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ants Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Im pretty sure the Marlin bolt action model numbers do start with "X". But its something like "X7" or "X7R". Easily confused with the "X-bolt" (Browning) I dont own a Marlin bolt gun, but from everything I have heard, they are good guns. Especially for the money. I read a review of them, in one of the magazines, and they did well. I would buy one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have owned rifles my whole life and this will be no " entry level gun ". I was more asking about marlin rifles in general. Anything I need to hunt in NY a 270. is just fine for, so that was never a question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
